A night dive to see Tarpon, Squid, Eels and Rays!

They told me there was a 5 foot wide Eagle Ray hovering around just outside the lights on the back of the boat tonight..Since it is summer and the water is just about 85 degrees, I decided I would jump in and see if I could find it. Lots of particles in the water though! I never saw the Eagle Ray, I was too busy looking down and keeping an eye on the billion tarpon who were snapping beside my head!
Saw some great squid...Quite large for here too!

Of course the Tarpon and Sting Rays were in fish heaven eating in the lights...

Spotted Eel, but not a great picture when you have a wide angle on!

Nice Tarpon!

More squid...

And a sting ray.

Now it is 1130 PM and I am wide awake! That is not good!
