We dove on Jupiter Dive Center's Republic IV both days of Lobster Mini-Season. Capt Tom Smith zero'd in on the generous lobster spots and a steady current for no-finning to find each one. 80 degree teeshirt diving and top to bottom clear viz. I entered the FWC's Lionfish Challenge this year and if you Registered > Caught 25 LF's > Send a signed picture,,,,The FWC sent you FREE a 1) a DriFit shirt, 2) Raffle prize entry, 3) LF Coin to catch an EXTRA LOBSTER over the limit legally each day for just mini-season. I quickly hauled 13 lobsters with my coin!!
Diving conditions were great but as @scubadada know's, I always make “Boat-Food”. Cause secretly the Captain and Crew will let you pick a dive spot if you feed them! 1st day was “ Scuba-Kabobs “. Made 25 but by the time I turned around only 4 were left for this picture. Best part of kabobs are if you don't like tomatos or something, you just pull it off and eat the rest. Last item on the Kabob is a mini Snickers bar for desert! Great, easy to make boat food.
Day 2 lunch was a new test item to try. I made “ WALKING TACOS “,,,Whatttt???. Take a vending machine size small Doritto's bag and cut it open sideways's with scissors. Crunch the large chips with your fingers down to the size of a quarter. Pile in the bag shredded lettuce, diced tomatos, Cheeze, Guacamole, and cubed cold chicken chunks. Stick a fork in it and mix it all up. Hold in your left hand, fork in your right, and walk anywhere without spilling a drop! Everyone had doubles and loved it.
We were laughing and had a great bunch of dives in Jupiter. Next up is the 800 pound giant Goliath Grouper Mating 6 week season around Labor Day weekend in Jupiter. This is gonna be so cool to see again!!
