Lionfish in Cozumel

[BTravlin]

Just got back from a week aboard the CEX II in the Bahamas and was amazed at the number of lionfish there. Several on every dive and most were as big or bigger than the largest I've seen in Coz.

Earlier here in CZM, but I am convinced that on the reefs that are hunted, the scourge is lessened, at least in the short term.
Keep it up, dedicated DMs!! :cheerleader:

Here are four good reasons to keep killing lionfish. The little gray blob was an octopus. *sigh*

Just got back from a week of diving in Coz. Lionfish on every dive, even when snorkeling from the beach. I found five off around the Fiesta Americana pier alone.
Dive Masters from Dive Paradise are actively spearing LF.

The pineapple lionfish kabobs look really tasty....

We'll be there in 2 weeks, will have to have an eye out on this and discuss with our DM. I know he spear fishes, so perhaps we can cull a few.

I have seen about 30 lionfish in the last 7 days... biggest ones were quite deep on Santa Rosa wall....
