Great vis today! With a bright, sunny sky we could see beyond thirty feet under the little east bridge (until the tide turned; vis falls rapidly when that happens). Five of us braved the early fall weather (90 degrees air temperature with a nice breeze from the south) to do a very relaxing fun dive. We looked for the frogfish and seahorses but didn't have any luck. We did see a beautiful polkadotted batfish and a gorgeous juvenile blue angelfish. A mantis shrimp oogled us I think; it's hard to tell where they are looking. Of course, the Atlantic spadefish came up to greet us as they always do. A few large barracuda loomed in the distance as small schools of bait fish swirled toward and away from us. After an hour of bottom time we drifted south and then west through the moored boats just south of the swim area finishing our dive at ninety minutes. In a dive skin I was very comfortable. 88 degrees! At the beach we didn't want to get out of the water to the world of gravity. What a great day of diving! Get in the water, Ham
