The vis on the Maryland Shoal hump was the best I have ever seen yesterday. Easily 100 feet. I could see my baits on the bottom in 70 feet. We limited out on flags then when the taxmen came we did shark dive in the extreme vis. There were 6 bulls cruising around but they were pretty calm so my charter clients and I got a kick out of swimming with them, especially after 20 hours of shark week on the D channel.
Things got a little crazy when we dropped them a few chumbombs so we called it.

Hey Ed,
Did you get any video of the sharks on Maryland? You know it is "Shark Week."

Brad,
I was serious about your new leap in to underwater photoghraphy. You are getting better at it all the time. Next thing you know you will have your own T.V. show. "Wild on Key West":D
