    Solo today on the 3rd reef
    The sea and sky were beautiful
    This is the second day using my new Persuit mask
    The current was rippin so hard that I set out a 200f drift line behind my scupper:(
    So I'm driftin along when I see this NICE fish 55f below me. I think, "Wow, sure is nice to see the Jew fish becoming more common on the reef." So I watch him for 2-3min as he lays on the bottom, then he turns and I realize "Holy sheit, Its not a Jew, its a 3f grouper:@ I do a quick breath up and start my drop. He watches me come till I'm like 20f away then he starts a slow swim off. Out of air I go up. I spent close to an hour trying to outsmart him this way and that way. Finally I have to give up cause I have to quit for the day:(
    I did manage a 20in hog and 2 macs though.
    I thought I saw a floating fridge on my way back in :rolleyes:

    Solo today as my dive buddy broke a clavical two days ago on our 30mi, bicycle ride. I got a weather status update call from sdeisen in Boca saying the seas looked diveable so I did a beach dive just to get wet and to check out the near shore viz.
    I spent 2 hours swimming out and back to the first reef.
    I didn't see any spearable fish in the low viz but if was just great to get back into the water. :thumbup:

    I don't know about "best", but I have used and liked the Garmin 72 and Garmin 76 for years with great results.
    The basic 72 gave me everything I needed
    The 76 has more bells and whistles
    I now use a Hummingbird 385ci fishfinder/GPS/marine maps on my yak. (No sense putting all that gear on and getting in the water unless there is fish under the yak :) )
    Hope this helps

    Todays (8-29-10) weather sucks, so here is a report from a much nicer day on 8-27-10.

    Boca spearos----anyone interested in assisting sedisen may want to know that sdeisen is one of, if not THE best up and coming freedive spearos.
    without any formal training and only a few years spearing, he can already hunt at 60fsw+ safely.
    Sdeisen is always appreciative of any assistance offered
    Sdeisen is respectful and very knowledgable of the ocean.
    Sdeisen is also a good hand on the boat and is always offering to pay his share and carry more than his own load
    We are gonna miss you here brother :bottomup:
