Woke up and checked the weather buoy and it said 3 knots of wind at Sand Key. So it was time to call in sick and head out on the water. Me and Catherine went we were out on the water by about 8:30 am.

Had friends from NY and Jacksonville , Teddy Hudson and Jeff Thoma , here for the weekend, the weather was less then perfect. They wanted to go snorkeling, and wanted to try to press through the wind. So I said sure, and we went out around 10:00 am. The water was great, the blue water that was bit offshore had pushed onto the reef and there was about 40-50 feet of vis in front of Key West. It actually looked like it might even get better further offshore.

Went out today with Cal (njspearo) and Catherine, it wasn’t too great. Visibility on the main reef was terrible 15-20 feet tops from Sand Key to a little west of Satan Shoal. Wind was blowing from the northeast 14-18 knots and later in the day switched to east.
We drifted the bar most of the day, I shot some yellow jacks and a mackerel, there was blue water on the bar with visibility ranging from 50-80 feet. I don’t know that many spots on the bar yet so we mostly just drifted along blindly in water 40-65 feet deep. We didn’t see a lot of fish, except towards the end of the day, I think Cal may need to wear some contacts or something because even though fish were few he didn’t see any at all.
