Treasure Coast Dive Forecast – May 2013

At the end of April, we were looking at seven to nine foot seas. What is going on? Ok, to be honest, there was one weekend with very nice with seas at two to four foot. In the northern parts of the Treasure Coast, visibility has been better than 30 feet. In the South and Jupiter, we have had days of 100 plus. With May, flat seas should come! Finally, Lake Atlantic, with the occasional afternoon thunderstorm.

Well May is here and grouper season opened on the first. We have been seeing fish all over the place from Jupiter to Ft. Pierce in great abundance. Large blacks and gags are to be found on the wrecks off Stuart and Jupiter. The ledges are also holding good sized fish. There are still cobia around and the tax collectors have been taking their share.

For some shameless self-promotion and to have lots of diving fun, we are running all three of our boats, Gillbilly, Stryker, and Heartless for three tank dives May 1 to May 5 at special pricing for the opening of grouper season. As always, please come out and dive the Treasure Coast for some of the best spearfishing around.

Dive safe and we will be looking forward to seeing you under the boat.
