Vinsons go to Clearwater
Posted by: | CommentsRegina,
Here’s the info on our dive trip. Thanks!
We recently dove on a natural ledge in Clearwater, FL while on vacation in the Tampa area (Indian Shores). We dove with Tanks-A-Lot Dive Charters with Capt. Mike Miller. He was very professional and safety-conscious. Our dive was approximatley 10 miles off shore in about 60′ of water. The visibility was fair (for that area). We saw some sea creatures, other than fish, that we had never seen before.

Posted by: | CommentsThe following is an email sent by Tony Sapp to his old Ichthyology professor-
Hey Dr. Vives,
My name is Tony Sapp. I had you for Ichthyology way back in 2002 I think. I have started diving and spearfishing off the coast of Fla. and Ga. I was wondering if you know any negatives about eating the fish off our coast. Additionally, I am mainly concerned about the Atlantic Spadefish. Mainly, I believe their diet consists of jellyfish, but I didn’t know if you may know any other information about the fish. We have seen SEVERAL Lionfish while diving on artificial reefs… I think that little fish may be a problem for population balance in the future.
