Saturday night would be a great dive. Have you done night diving?

 

[Tessunderwater]

I've done three night dives, 2 of them at ft. pickens. The most recent was Ft. Pickens about a week ago. Saturday sounds great, I'd like to hit the water by 5pm just because the tide can be so picky there.

There wont be much current due to the neap tide. Not much change from high to low tide. I'll plan on going if you want to. Get's dark around 6:30, so we could be in the water a little before dark. Perfect. My cell is 850-485-0793. Tyler McCall's the name. I'm a good diver with lots of night dives. Call me tomorrow and we'll confirm.

Several of us will be meeting by the wall at 1pm tomorrow. Looks like about five of us so far. Anyone interested in hanging out, come meet up!

Had a fun night dive with Tess. I believe I'll join you on Sunday. Water temp was 68. Time to hang up the 3mm!!

How about some dive reports??

 

[tylerinflorida]

Sure. Did a night dive Saturday night. No current (neap tide). Water was about 68 on the surface, and 66 at 40 ft. Vis was between 12-15 ft. Lots of cowfish, puffers, one large octopus. He actually swam out of his hole and tried to get my hand. Lots of toadfish. Dove on Sunday around 2 pm. All conditions were pretty much the same. There was an advanced class being conducted Saturday night. No classes on Sunday. Always a fun spot to dive! After the dive on Sunday we hit Mcguire's to sample their new IPA. I ended up having a great weekend and coming away with 3 new dive buddies!
