SI Report Tues

Went offshore today with my long time friend Ron Rinconnes and PADI Daddy Himself, Steve Metcalf, aka Ocean Ed. We headed to deep - diving the 100 ft. +. Conditions have dropped since Sunday, at least in deep. Had that thick hard layer till you hit the bottom and had a hazy 8 ft most of the day in the spots we hit with temps back in the 50s. Worked real hard all day- and made a semi productive day out it. Talked to a few of the Canaveral boys I know who were working way south. They elected not to spend the night out as the going was a little tough today. Here is a nice 9+ lber Ocean Ed grabed.

Will dry out tomorrow, and hit it again Thursday.

I swear this time of year must be the butter industries peak season, do you realize how much that one will need?

Re: SI Report Tues

I could live with 8ft vis considering what we've all been dealing with over here...50 degrees is not so nice though, but then again frozen bugs can't run to fast or far.

Really nice bug!!!
