Left out to sea on 4-22-2006 around 0900 hrs. on the H2O below captained by Doug Hammond . Seas 3-4 ft. with your occasional 5 ft. Ounce we made it out to the freighter the sea calmed down to a steady roll of around 2-3 ft.With air temps in the
80s.
Russian Freighter
Water temps were in the mids 60s and the vis ranged from about 40-60 ft. on the bottom after getting through a slight murk layer on the surface. There was alot of marine life including a good size Barracuda who hung around about 10 yds. away and checked the spear fishing activity . My buddy was able to pole spear three good sized flounder . I managed to stay down 28 mins. with a max bottom time of 83 ft.
Tex Edwards
The seas calmed down to about 1-2 ft . and the vis. was alot better here at times even up to about 80 ft. but the average was around 50 ft. Lots of Snapper and Trigger fish . The resident Dolphin who hangs around the wreck came within about 10 ft. of me and my buddy . My max depth was 75 ft. and I stayed down for 30 mins. But now I'm hooked after watching everybody spear fish , I am absolutley getting a spear gun or at least pole spear to begin with.
Two great dives cant wait to go again........
