Anyone planning on going diving on Thursday or Friday? Going to be in Fort Pierce and contemplating driving the 1.5 hrs. I've never dove this area before so having someone giving me some pointers would be nice!
 
I'm thinking seriously about a dive on Thursday...would love to have a buddy or two...
 
and YOU know where they are! :blinking:
 
Found this guy at the bridge, but am not sure what type of batfish it is. I initially thought it was a red-lipped, but now believe that is incorrect. Anybody know for sure?

I'm going to say polka dot.

With apologies to Jet, this apears to be a shortnose batfish (Ogcocephalus nasutus)...the polka dot has more rounded spots, the shortnose is a mottled reddish brown to tan, as they grow the projection in the front gets smaller.
