July Lion Fish Tournament
Get your dive equipment and Lion fish detectors ready for our July tournament. We have the spear guns or you are permitted to bring your own Hawaiian sling to kill all the Lion fish on the reefs in Salt Cay.
Richard and the crew has done an excellent job at keeping the population down, but we need your help. We want all Lion fish on your plates, not our reefs.
The prize for the person catching the MOST Lion fish wins a three night stay at Tradewinds Guest Suites.
A pod of Pilot whales were spotted right in front of Salt Cay on Tuesday. They must have come for the Queen's jubilee. No idea why they are here so late, but it was exciting. Never too soon to sign up for our Super Summer Specials and Humpback whale season 2013.
Hope to have you in Salt Cay real soon. Debbie

Notes from Miss Debbie
January 14, 2010
Lionfish feast! After the Scheller Tribe finished bringing in their Underwater Safari, Divemaster Richard showed them how to clean the fish safely so they could cook them. They were delicious!

Today was a new adventure in that the divers got to go looking for Lion fish and were able to net three. Average size was 9 “. They found a really baby Lion fish too.
Jodi, our Environmental Science officer recorded the find, measured and then actually dissected to see what they are eating. Found lots of baby Juvenile fish, shrimp inside them. Richard them cleaned them and we had a gourmet feast. Ok, not a feast, but a Lion fish tasting and they were quite tender. Special thanks to Jodi, Rich, our Dive master and to Joe, Smitty, Sharon and Jim diving guests down assisting us. Come on down and join us for our next “HUNT”

Went out diving today and saw a 10 ft Hammerhead. He circled us several times, then went off on his merry way. Quite exciting. This is early Hammerheads, just like it was early for the Mantas. The plankton is not blooming, but the water is warming up to 80 degrees and rising. Great to get in the water again.
