Met up with Paulwall this afternoon to get a beach dive in at the shrimpboat. Water looked great from the surface, very blue, hardly any surf(ankle snappers mainly). Water temps at 62F. Visibility around the wreck was cloudy at ~3-5' and alot of the wreckage is covering up. The prop is completely covered :( . The current relief is made up of rigging, the motor and I'm stupid, some rope, and lots of nets that have been caught up on the wreckage. Saw a couple of puffers, couple pinfish, blennies, one brown crab, a large southern ray, and thats pretty much it. Hit a max depth of 16' and somehow managed to waste 45 minutes on the wreck before getting bored and leaving - LOL :)

Always fun to get some bottomtime though :D
 
Anything negative is definately Paulwall's fault :D
 
Iew, I'm glad there was a bit of sideshore current to carry that junk on down the beach :)
 
We needed to have a picture of the paulwall poo-rade to post.
...... On second thought......NOT!!!!
 
For once, not having an UW housing for my camera is a good thing :)
