Figuring that since the forecast only looked good for the am, we headed off shore a bit to a small snag. I guess I should say very small as it was not worth diving. We quickly hit another spot close by and found nice bottom conditions . Bottom temps were about 50 and vis 20 to 25ft. A few nice lobster and a bunch of sea bass came up.
Next we intended to hit the Gulf Trade bow but a fishing boat was camped on it . Just a short distanced away we ended up on a wooden snag that provided about the same conditions . We ended up with more sea bass and lobster.
I forgot to mention on the second dive I recovered something that looks like one of those old brass round navigation instruments but I think I left it on the boat. When I get a chance I will run back down and see what I got. Last week Bart found what might be a bulls eye Deadeye but it was heavily encrusted and I am waiting for the cleaning process to be completed to verify the ID, Nice to have some early season finds,
