A video of approximately 50 goliath grouper on and around the wreck of the M/V Castor
lying in 110 ft. of water off North Delray Beach, FL. The video was shot with the new
GoPro camera with a red filter and two video lights.
 
Thank you for commenting! Still dialing in my video editing, it is pretty crude. The red filter with artificial light is interesting. Up to a point it is great then when the lights get too close the image oversaturates. Still, it beats normal washed out colors with deeper water available light shooting. I was surprised with the quantity of goliaths still around the Castor too.
 
Just as I thought, I'm an idiot. Found it, and it's. great video. I have never been there, but I am now planning on it. Thanks for the brief underwater experience.

You are welcome! I had been trying to get back to the Castor since 2009 and hit it three times recently to make up for the absence. The wreck has more goliaths, this time of year anyway, than any other wreck I've been on or know of in SE Florida. It is readily accessible with all the dive boats out of Boynton Beach and well worth a visit.

ps - I lose sight of the "like" button myself at times.
