Thnx.. The viz was fantastic there today excluding the rain storms here and there. Nice school of permit and a lizardfish trying to bury himself in the sand.

I was there a few weeks ago-we freedove that little wreck--quite a few hogfish around but the sharks show up pretty quick there-

Hens and Chickens is a wonderful dive. Even better if you happen to find good viz. Normally the viz is not very good in comparison to the rest of the area.
