Morning Jenny!

A few buds and I dove the gulf yesterday. 55 degrees at 45'. Vis was 10-15. Seas were 3-4 and a super thick sea fog! Had to use radar and windshield wipers coming in!

 

[Scuba_Jenny]

Ick.. but at least you are diving!!
I haven't been diving in so long, but then my ear has been bothering me for a while and need to get it cleared up.

Sorry about the flu. Hope you feel better soon.

Did you happen to run into "baby" on the Sea Emperor? There have been dives when I've had to push her off my leg or out of my picture shot...

No, we didn't see her. However I was looking for her. We are coming back next month.

I was told by a local some divers had picked the sea horses clean out of BHB. We plan on diving there again next month.

Is that common? Are divers allowed to "take" anything they want?

ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!! This area is a "No Take" zone.

The mentioned diver approached an officer, and his response, "What am I going to do?"

Have you seen the new FaceBook page?


Blue Heron Bridge Dive Club Just had a conversation with Dennis Eshleman, Director of Palm Beach County Parks. He informed me that changes are in the works about strengthening the ordinances for Phil Forster Park on the “NO TAKE”. As of right now it’s a 2nd or 3rd degree misdemeanor, punishable fines up to $500 or 60 days in jail.
