Andrew, yes we were in small boat. Was yours a large dive boat with a lot of people?
The water was choppy for our boat to range too far in search of better vis.
we only had 5 people total on board, had to take the boat out just to run it. We ran into some sloppy stuff too farther off but it eventually laid down a bit. surface conditions were very strange today. let me know when your planning on diving out of haulover... if ive been out ill try n report viz or get a report from my buddies.

Those strawberries yield ok, nate likes em more then i do. Ive shot one or two but i pass on them now. Big enough and you get a firm white meat like hogs.

OK
BTW the water was milk today N and S of Haulover. A real waste of time.
We found some viz again today in 70-90 nate came out on the dive boat i work on. bout 40 at first then got worse as the day went on. Were you in a smaller boat? Thought i saw a few freedivers heading out suited up in a couple boats, we were on the SCUBA diving boat with the shark teeth painted on the hull.

All greys. I have alot of video i need to go through, nate loaned me his gopro today but it was out of control how many there were and how big they were. Im going back to the same spot tomorrow morning.... theres a big black grouper I whiffed on that has an appointment with dr andrew the piercing artist.

contributing my lil reports.
hit it today off my friends rig. went to a spot weve been dying to dive and havent been able to get on it until some friendly advice from the guy who gave us these numbers.
70-100 ft, viz was probably 20-25 feet nothing stellar. Beat the living crap out of the biggest triggers ive ever seen in florida, i think i ended up with over 20. my buddy charlie pulled his PB hog. i also shot a mango and a hog but they paled in comparison to the triggers i was shooting. we got swarmed so bad my buddy charlie swam away from them and stopped shooting em.

Interesting. I've speared quite a few large ones in Boca that were VERY skittish and also some in Vero Beach that were far more docile... thats the first ft. lauderdale one I've heard of. Have you seen them here before?
steve i see a ton of em in the marinas when im cleaning boat hulls. a few i saw may or may not have been killed
i got one yesterday actually. nate flipped me off for it.I used to get them regularly when i lived in st lucie county. more often then not I think they like nasty muddier bottom n dirtier water.

I rinse my suit out after every time and leave out to dry but will try turning inside out and see if that helps, i guess it could be residue of water and lube that makes it stick.
my open cell suit that i have (bless the poor thing as I am terribly rough on my gear) has lasted me almost 4 years now. it is time for a new one but i always rinse it and store it inside out and its never stuck or anything. Plenty of holes in it now that i just keep gluing with wetsuit adhesive to keep it lasting til i can afford a new one thats more durable.

Hey all,
going to be done for the semester from december 12th to january 14th ( long break i know) and i decided to stay in town for the holidays. i run my own business so i have a very open schedule and will always be available if anyone needs a buddy in broward/miami area. I have a yak, comfortable to about 30 feet. if anyone needs a boat buddy im a competent driver and ill help out with my share of fuel/ice/cleaning... or if you keep your boat in the water ill scrape your bottom free of barnacles for free. PM me or post up in here. would love to meet a few new dive buddies.

North miami at barry University. As of right now I removed the reel for use on my bigger Mako railgun, the rest of this is still together but I may be removing the handle altogether and replacing it with something different.
