Thank you for being gracious.:happy:
We dive from The Seagate to Paul's reef so we cover over 20+ miles of reef. Most people don't see them because you have to go out into the scatter and be willing to do some sand diving to find those productive spots. I saw about 3 or 4 horse conch on the way and grabbed one for making conch chowder. I have even seen a conch "walk" which was on the eastern side of the Horseshoe reef and it left an impression on me. Dozens of conch in a row; I left them to their pilgrimage.
BTW, the pic I posted represented the catch of many divers over 2 dive trips. We are not out to pillage.
I hope we can dive together, sometime.
Apology accepted.
Can you tell us where you see them in great quantity? I don't want any, I'm just curious. I sometimes dive in Palm Beach County but mostly Pompano down to the Keys. I rarely see ANY type of live conch on a dive.
I dove Cay Sal Banks this summer and saw thousands of live Queen Conch, but I don't recall seeing any horse conch.
