Sea Ayers II Log

With word from our renters next door that they caught the limit, it whet our desire to get back out and dive for the bugs again.  We had a favor to return 4 lobster the Gates pressing when we filled Sandy's order of 47.  The breeze was SE 10 - 15 knots, sky clear but gigantic cloud formations of storms around.  Angie started the dive in the Crane Key cut when we found rock.  My new constructed grap anchor finally set.  For two hours Knuckles and I moved about the boat, I doused him with water and shared my PB&J sandwich Angie made.  When she called for the boat the choppy waters made it difficult to snag her on the first try and when she pulled her catch bag it was a pleasure to see such big bugs.  She caught 9 and found a hole in the catch bag.  Looking back we should have stayed in the Crane Key cut.  Area marked #38 in Fruno gps.
Angie said give her a few minutes and go to another site.  Gps Tcut was my suggestion and for another hour Angie dove and said it was a good area but did not even see a lobster.  The ride home was bumpy with white caps in the bay.  Used about 10 gal. of fuel.  All worked well
