my spots we checked were from 15ft to 35ft. Went offshore to fish as a backup and the reef was milk the whole way out.

Re: Current Vis Biscayne Bay / Elliott area and Miami

Got out today off haulover, and the viz was great, 50' in 35' no current and the deeper the better it got, from 9 am to 12 pm, got a couple of big hogs, and a mouton snapper big for Miami also, the winds started to pick up waves 2' to 3' with occasional 4' and viz got a bit hazy but still very doable, my diving buddy did great a lot better than i did, the tax man pay us a visit but no problems i guess it was just cruising by, get out there if you can. be safe out in the blue.

Report on Vis on 5/15/12: North of Fowey Vis was around 20ft still a bit hazy at 45 to 50 ft of water. The shallower you when the less viability there was. Recover about five anchors that need clean or can be used as decoration. Only in miami you see so many anchors. Got my first Red to open the season and some hogs, trigger.

Re: Current Vis Biscayne Bay / Elliott area and Miami

Early in the morning just after sunrise. The wind was still blowing. Forgot to mention the 16lb- Horse Eye Jack that I shot. It had worms and I gave it a funeral out in the deep blue.
