Last sunday we did a spearo dive in the notheast of the island, the sea was very calm so we cruise further north outside of the protection of the "cordillera" that runs between Fajardo and Culebra.
This is open ocean and it's allways a rough ride and with ripping currents so this place never gets dived by anyone. Since the sea was 1'-1.5', we decided to give it a try and jumped in a place where the top of the reef is at 80' and the bottom of the wall is at about 110'.
Most of the action took place at around 90' on the wall and we had to deal with many cudas that own the place.
The catch was 6 hogfish for a total of 13# of fish in my stringer and my buddy got one lobster, 1 hogfish and 1 cabrilla, not bad for a 29 min dive.
I wish this place remains like that and it probably will since it's very dificult to dive unless the seas are very calm.
I named the spot, "Picuas Alley" since I had to defend my catch from many cudas (about 6 or 7) ranging from 3' to 6'+
