Thursday 7/24
Diving conditions as good as your probably gonna get 20+ viz, water temp has crept up to the low 50's* and just a bit of current top to bottom.
Today would begin one of the most productive weekends for fishing I can ever remember.
We ran with a short boat, but that did not hinder the fact that a lot of fish was boated.

Friday 7/25
After yesterday it was hard to believe that we could return to the same site and do the damage that was about to occur. Same great diving conditions. 20+ ft viz low 50's* and a mild current top to bottom. This is the beginning of the Epic part.........limits of all species and very good specimens of each.........the pictures are really the only way to do today justice.

This fish bumped Mr Noble's previous biggest Fluke of the season (8+ lbs);

3 hours and 45 minutes of fish cleaning!
Saturday 7/26
Most of the Thursday folks returned to hear of the devastation from the previous day.
So a request was made to Cappy for something off the beaten path. Mr Noble had something in mind and we had never been there before, and by the look of the haul today didn't look like anyone had been here for awhile. I know its starting to get old.........BUT......25+ ft viz, 55* just a little current.............AGAIN another killfest.
Not to be out done by the Friday guys!
Seems Mr Noble took exception to being bumped from the biggest Fluke of the season (10+ lbs and 29 inches);

If your not diving now your missing out on some of the best conditions you will see in Jersey diving.
Currently we have interest in Wednesday, we have divers signed for Thursday but need a few more to make it a go, have 2 for Friday and need divers for that to also make it a go, Saturday have our regulars but need a couple to round out that day and as of now Sunday is wide open.
AS ALWAYS:
DIVE SAFE/ DIVE OFTEN
