Dolphins at Molasses Reef (Upper Keys)

[Big Mike]

We saw 4 of them on Friday. They followed our boats Q1 & Q3 from Quissence Dive Shop for about 10 minutes. They got on our wake right when we broke into open water from the mangrove channel & surfed our wake. It was cool when all 4 of them were jumping at the same time.

Cool shot LowVizWiz!

I am jealous! I always hope against hope that one day I'll get to play with some dolphins on a dive! There aren't many dolphins here in the Great Lakes! Hasn't happened yet...of course I've only been on a total of 7 dives in Florida. Maybe someday soon.

Do you guys not see many dolphins down there??? We have so many up here in the lagoons and offshore in the Atlantic that sometimes when we are fishing they get to be a nuisance. I would like to see some while in the water though. That would be cool. Here they just chase all our fish away.

I've always wanted to see dolphins in the wild. never have until last weekend off Molasses... I've dove the Key Largo and Miami area over the past year and this is the first time I've seen them.


I'd love to see them in the water around me.
