Once again Instructor John, Jim and me went diving off of the zodiac to hunt for bugs.<\/p>\n
This dive was just like the last post, except Jim came with us; so if you want a detailed narrative of this dive, read my last post and pretend Jim came along.<\/p>\n
Why we came back to this spot after the last time is a mystery to me.<\/p>\n
The vis sucked, I only saw one lobster that was so small I didn’t even bother to pin it.<\/p>\n
To make it very short – everyone got skunked!<\/p>\n
Of note however, when I was getting my tanks filled at Dive N Surf, I met one hunter that swears the breakwaters at 3 AM are plentiful.<\/p>\n
“Shortly after dark is too early, wait until 3 AM and the big ones will be out, it isn’t crowded, and the water is usually pretty flat,” he said.<\/p>\n
Great, now I just have to figure out how to dive that early in the morning; Instructor John was not very enthusiastic.<\/p>\n
On the way back, we also passed by a group of commercial lobster trap buoys in what was probably 60 feet.<\/p>\n
Maybe the lobsters are deeper now?<\/p>\n
We contemplated new spots that we may try out on the next outing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
