I may go down there Sunday, the USF game is around 3 on Saturday so I don't think I could make it back in time. Good luck if you go, let us know how the viz is.
Nor is mine, but I'm at it 100% of what I can do every day!! Saturday is diving at Venice, nothing tough there!!fgray1:
I gotta bow out. It looks like I'm working this weekend.

ReefGuy:Vis changes there on a daily basis, but averages around 2'-10'. Cbulla and I were there two weeks ago, and the vis was 10'-15' when I was thinking the trip was in vain. Give me 6", and I'll call it doable.
the water was warm, 86. I wore my skin and was glad I'd forgotten my shorty.
Hey Reef, long time no see. My wife and I met you and your family a couple years ago for a beach dive over in Venice......we were the ones with the condo just down the road from Alhambra. How did you and the family do with the big hurricane last year?
Kevin, we park right at the end of Alhambra (careful not to block the condo's and red 'end of road' signs) and dive straight out off of what USED to be the pipes... now its a reference off the corner of the condo's.

Went out today and met up with the older fella, Bill, and UB, and Capt Morgan and another guy who dives for teeths for $. The $ guy was out doing an exploratory and came back just as we were suiting up (he was out a while so we figured he was toothin') and said "don't even bother, its so bad I can't tell where I'm at.. 8" at best!"
Soooo... my wife, Sean from the dive shop, and I headed down to Dog park.. the same nasty clouds that were up at Alhambra were there to. Soooooo.. we went down to Manasota Key. What a refreshing dive that was! The water temp was 80 and it took some coaxing to get my wife and sean to leave the 12' zone and to the 14-18' area but once out there it was a nice little tooth patch. Found a handful of teeth and a camel molar.
