Lots of Lion fish still!

A friend of mine went hunting the other day on what he called "Paradise Wall," which I'd never heard of. Evidently right at Paradise Reef, close to the cruise ship pier, but further out into the channel. Big currents and deep, like well over 100' and they all went into deco briefly, but he said there were lionfish all over the place.

Thanks for sharing

Which area did you guys hunt in? What was the dive depth profile?

My pleasure.
As a skier I'm told "There are no friends on powder days".
I am sworn to secrecy about dive sites. Mostly north is all I can say. The DM's that see the reefs everyday will know, just ask. I can tell you that you will need to go deeper than 100 feet. Go out to the edge of the wall of any area and you will find them. Be careful, there is some really wonky currents out over the edge of the wall. Unless there have been hunters there before, including the locals and us gringos, you'll be able to find them. There were 7 of us. I doubt many got passed over with our group. I only did a couple dives within the park and there are very few Lionfish there (A good thing).
