KEY LARGO report, MOLASSES REEF, 3/6/2015, pics,,,,,

[reefman]

winds finally slackened this morning after 10 days. warm sunny skies, seas 2FT w/occasional 3FT swells, surprisingly sloppy. moderately strong currents present on the duane/bibb and deep sites so a double on shallow MOLASSES reef which reportedly had by far the best visibility all week. #1: mooring ball M19(deep south, pillar forest), mdt current, vibrant blue viz 70-80FT, warming water temps 75/76F @ 18-42FT(comfortable in a 7MM w/hooded vest). repositioned north for # 2: M25(logans run), light current, blue water viz declining a bit 60-70FT. not a diver in sight either drops, very fine dives, abundant fish life! pics from TIMG,,,,,,,,,,

That viz looks great, like I said we had 5 feet at Hens and Chickens. The manatee was the highlight of the day
