Spearfishing trip to the Dredge Avocet in Pensacola Florida. The water was the most beautiful Blue I've ever seen in Pensacola and we were treated to 150' of visability on the first dive and water temps of 81*. I had bumped my Go-Pro mode from video to picture at some point and missed the video of the first dive where I actually shot fish but the second dive I just swam around playing with sharks and admiring the scene. This was the first time I'd dove Avocet when I could see the bow from the stern and vice versa. Talk about the dive of a life time!!!! We were on Captain Any Ross's boat Niuhi whcih you can check out at www.niuhidivecharters.com we were able to spearfish as he has a federal permit now. I shot the video below ont he secodn dive but the vis had dropped off substantially it was as if the entire bottom had silted up at once, I suppose that in reality a silty section of water moved in on us but it was still crazy to see. With the clarity of the water being at the best it has been all year and the sea conditions promising to cooperate this coming weekend as well as the number of large pelagic fish including Whale Sharks and Manta Rays we have been seeing.... Well brothers it is promsing to be an awesome weekend. Give us a shout at the above link. I'll be working as the DM for Capt. Andy this weekend again and I've got some great ideas for some sights to visit. Lobster anyone?
