To follow are the GPS numbers of the reefs deployed yesterday. After deployment Robt. Turpin went back and confirmed structure under these exact numbers, he even mentioned that he feels like he saw some activity on one of them on his bottom screen already!

Wayne Frier30 deg17.518  87 deg14.15853 -3 concrete pyramids (1 broken)

Deployment went well, only 1 broken unit, and a corner popped off 1 other; of course we do not have any underwater footage showing what happened after they went underwater. Maybe one of our local divers can get us some footage!

Thanks to the Contractor for doing a good job once deployment began.

Here are some pics

 

 

NOTE: As this is a PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT I have asked that the thread be locked to avoid derailing comments and issues; and pin the thread to the top, so that the Forum members can easily get to it and get the numbers.

I see no gain to anyone fishing them right now, but you can certainly go check them out and let's hope we start to see some production in the near future. They should be great for holding bait which will bring some more of the predators our way!

The balance should be deployed by the end of the month!

 

Thanks for everyones support on this project!

 

KEEP AN OCCASSIONAL RED HERE AND THERE FOR DINNER, BUT FOR
THE REST, PRACTICE HEALTHY CATCH & RELEASE TECHNIQUES
SAVE SOME FOR THE FUTURE!
