I haven't heard any updates.

I don't believe they were lobster diving. The name of the facility just happens to be lobster.

I want to say he was a freediver which means most likely he did not have a safety sausage.

That is a relief. But I hope they find him. Was it you that saw a bull shark a couple of weeks ago? That is what scares the crap out of me.

Yeah I did see a bull but I doubt thats what got him.

Unfortunately he probably got tangled up in his cable with an amberjack or tried to stay down too long and passed out on his assent.

I really hope they find him well, and if not I hope they can at least recover his body

They were spear fishing at 200ft. Air doesnt last that long at that depth

Yeah I know, but a 200' bounce dive is routine and we all do it every weekend

The problem is shooting something down there and not letting go of the fish before you become in trouble

We see alot of diver cases down here. Not usually good if you dont find them quickly. The CG is good at what they do, but if he didnt resurface it doesnt look good.

I'm unsure what time he went missing. First I heard about it was around 9 PM yesterday.

With this weather though, shouldnt be hard to see someone on the surface

They should have a lot of boats out there today. I'm sure our 1st boat will be getting there soon to make a dive and look for him down there.

I believe the current is heading towards yall so they will probably be searching out in your direction
