Got a rare Thursday morning break from my weekly video call and jumped on Scuba Work's dive boat Divocean in Jupiter for their regular Thursday lobster trip. Boat was at capacity and seas were rollers at 3-4's.. Viz was epic crystal clear 100 foot plus, 1/4 knot south(!) current with a west push and 80 degrees on the bottom. It was sweet!!

Surface interval at 10am was toasty hot blueberry pancake mix with Jimmy Dean breakfast sausage inside, on a stick served at 170 degrees & individually dbl foil wrapped. Food safety 1st these days, I love making boat food! Bag of Bugs are headed to the home freezer.

Goliath's are still here but numbers are starting to thin a bit. Some big migrations always happen in October with huge manta's the 3rd & 4th week of October and the mullet run at Halloween bringing in thousands of spinner and feeding sharks. Big bait balls are near shore and BHB right now.


Call your favorite dive boat to go diving!!
