Jellyfish

[sufur]

i dove in boynton beach about 2 weeks ago.. and came up for a safety stop and noticed quite a large number of them. figured they would pass with the current. Well at the end of my stop they were even worse. I was kinda freaked out and decided to stay down a little longer looking for a bigger opening. after a little while i figured out it wasnt going to end so i just made my way up making sure none landed on my head as thats the only part of me that wasnt covered..once i got to the surface i could feel them bumping into my wetsuit. after getting stung by something once when i first started diving ive always worn a full 3mil.

did get a cool video clip of one of them its at the end of a video i posted in the video section of the boards here titled boynton beach. i was so freaked out initially i didnt think to turn my camera on when i hit that big cloud of them lol.

Dove LBTS last night...viz was lousy and there were some jellies, but nothing like the past week or two. Here's hoping some of that storm weather moves them out.

I always wondered, do massive jelly invasions = fat turtles?

I don't think jellies have much fat on them.. you need to add peanutbutter.
