the buoy made it easy to
get on this upside down barge/salt hopper. Just a big
upside down hunk of metal, but ohhhhh the fishees! The
bait was so thick you couldn't see through them at times!
Lots of small jacks around them and troops of Spanish
Mackeral around them and a few 'Cuda's hanging off in
the distance. I saw 2 smallish Jewfish (Goliath Grouper)
that came back after a while.
With
all the excitement of the last dive, somewhere along
the line Dave misplaced his stringer so I loaned him
mine and just went on a sightseeing tour instead. I
guess I should've been shooting 'cos everybody came
up with some nice fish. A few 'lesser amberjacks' and
even a real amberjack. Larry even got red grouper!
Lots
of all kinds of fish on this wreck. The biggest Potters
Angels I've ever seen. These guys were big and fat...
it was bizarre. Even saw a blennie that looked like
could go on a diet. Saw what seemed to be an albino
Scorpion Fish.(toad fish) His eyes weren't red, but
he was so much lighter than I've ever seen them change
colour to. Found a jaw of some kind of coral eating
fish. With the type of teeth it has I'd guess it was
a parrotfish, but then there aren't really parrotfish
on this side of Florida so I'm not sure what it is.
I'll try to find out!
I
think I need to get a new o-ring on one of my LP120's.
I was sitting doing fin tip pivots waiting for one of
the Jewfish to come out from under the barge and I heard
some extraneous bubbling.
