We visited one small wreck in 100' and two rock piles in 75'. Lobsters were seen, although a lot of smalls were left behind. A few made the trip home with us.
Sea bass were plentiful, with some nice large ones as well on the wreck, but being out of season none were taken.
A few flounder were seen on the rock piles, but I don't spear anything that's not obviously large enough to be a keeper and these flounder were probably just over 12". I'll get then next year when they grow up.
Overall, viz was 10-15. Bottom temp was 48-50 at 100', around 52 at 75' and 54 at the surface.
A great day diving, it doesn't get any better than NJ as far as scuba diving is concerned.
