Went out with Jupiter Dive Center and conditions were just about perfect. Seas were flat and underwater viz was running 60 - 70 feet. Water temps are slightly moving up and it was consistent 74 on the bottom with a very slight 1 knot current.

Plenty of sharks around and got sniffed by 2, but they didn't follow. There's a couple of medium sized Goliaths at about 200lbs each hanging out on the Tunnels.

Spent about 3-1/2hrs underwater, & caught my limit of 6 bugs, along with 2 larger sized Sheepheads and a Mango

You can get contact info for Jupiter Diver Center through their website at:

They do cater to spearfishing and lobster hunters and are a great dive op to use. Be sure to make reservations early, because this coming weekend is the last full one before bug season ends and trips will be booked fast if not already.

Nice looking sheeps head what about the BUGS????
Aloha from Hawaii Mark..

Since I caught them on the very first dive, I had already tailed them and put them in the cooler. We only have a little less than 2 weeks before the florida season ends and this coming weekend the weather is a little shaky at best.
