8/21 SC Report
Went with my old man out of Charleston on Saturday, had a great day. Second drop ran into a school of cobia just hanging around the reef. Tally for the day was 2 cobia, 2 lobster, 2 gags, and 2 hogs.
   Will be back in Jax in a few weeks, this was my first day of nitrox diving, and the payoff was immediate. |

Re: 8/21 SC Report
Excellent bug and shot placements on the fish. Yes if you go deeper than 60 ft, nitrox cuts down surface intervals way down.

Re: 8/21 SC Report
Where did you get nitrox fills in Charleston?

The day before our departure is when Chr dive center told me this and their rental was 19$ per tk. This is why I canceled back in June. Do ya believe me now? |
