Barracuda and giant black seabass at Eagle Reef 25 OCT 09

[fnfalman]

The giant black seabass was about a 6-footer. It was loitering at around maybe 50ft depth in an opening with sandy bottom and just above it were about more than 6 barracudas stalking a thick school of baitfish. It was so awesome seeing them both at the same time like that. Viz was an awesome 60ft plus.

Ocean Safari hosts a great charter, and of course the Great Escape boat always delivers.

Gotta love Capt Tim & Kody the boat dog! Saw a pile of 'cuda off Isthmus reef 2 weeks ago on the Great Escape. Gonna post up some pics?

Sorry, I don't do underwater photography (yet), but give it a couple of days and the Ocean Safari people would put the photos on the website and I can post some links.
