terrific conditons in the upper keys today; calm winds and flat seas

1st dive was molasses deep(northern mooring buoy), viz70ft+ blue water, light NE current and water temp 78F @ 85FT. goliath grouper, loggerhead turtle and lots of tropicals; nice dive.
2nd dive was permit ledges-fire coral caves. viz50+ blue water, light NE current and 79F @ 25FT. this dive was awesome; 6 eagle rays observed off and on throughout the 70 minute dive along with 2 additonal single eagle ray sightings, 2 goliath grouper, large tarpon, permit, 2 nassau grouper and numerous large black groupers along with the largest aggregation of yellowtail snapper(small) i've ever seen. molasses reef never ceases to amaze me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
