First 2 days were awesome, great weather and great diving conditions. Things started to get dicey day 3 and even worse on day 4.
Days 1 and 2 we really loaded up on Hogfish (I think Mike had the largest) and we had a few Lionfish and one Mutton Snapper. We got out day 3 but took a beating on the ocean side, so we tried the Gulf side but didn't find much going on over there.
We all went to Lazy Days on the third nite and we had a couple of Lion fish appetiser which everyone really liked.......an assortment of other fish dishes and more steaks and ribs than I had expected.
Day 4 we tried our best to get out, ran 5-6 miles with it right on the nose with some 8 footers which were pretty far apart. Bottom conditions sucked, very surgey which picked up the bottom. We got in on 2 but found nothing.
All in all a great adventure, Capt Bill and Beth were awesome hosts and made us feel very comfortable during our visit. Castaways was a fun side adventure each evening........$2.00 beers and $2.00 shrimp.
Hope to get down again and get another haul of Hogfish.....and maybe some lobsters.
Thanks to Pawel and Rob for their pics:
