Went with Kent and stephan out of georgetown. Vis wasn't all that great but the fish were thick in 100' Got some nice flounder, scamps, one nice lobster, limit of gags, and red snapper. Had a little excitement last dive of the day. Stephan had a big sand tiger sneak up behind him and take his stringer of fish. Then the shark follows him back down the ledge to me and grabs my stringer dragging me back through the water. I got to keep my fish but it was certainly a battle. We poked the shark hard every time it came in after us drawing blood but it still kept coming. Thanks for the help stephen. Great day to play hookie from work.

Got a pretty cool picture of a Sunfish Breaching by the boat.

Rob - I'm diggin' the teeth marks on the tail of that ARS.

Someone musta gotten the sandys excited for them to behave like that.

nice job! being dragged down a ledge by a shark always makes for a great story for the ride home.
