Deep enough that there was no light, unless it was night time. Actually there's a caption that reads depth at the bottom of the screen and the numbers keep changing but I can't make out the numbers.

Brad pit is one of my favorites, a gifted actor.
I'm curious if anybody liked the movie Walk Hard, the Dewey Cocks story?

hau, it's a conditions report thread from me without any diving that wasn't going anywhere anyways, can't really derail that.. So no worries
If you want more opinions on an adequate wetsuit you may want to start another thread so that more people will see your question. -
Thanks hau. I could tell the next day there wasn't going to be an infection which is what I was concerned about.
What 3mm suit would spearos suggest for me to buy for use in Miami?
-
I wasn't baiting you.
BTW You said you feed your dogs carp and by me that's a very good thing. Just try ration it out and not the whole thing in one feeding :poke:

It's just not fair. Look how nice it is out there right now. It just doesn't get any better.

Well, with good vis and no current 90' is doable for me after a day or two of getting used to it. But it would be straight down and up. OK for mid water fish and much more difficult for bottom fish. Lets not discount the motivation factor of seeing the fish down there as that place is supposed to be loaded. Sounds like the place to employ the cordelero system. Regardless if jfjf can hunt in 90' then he's got my respect. But I'd like to see some confirmation before I believe it.

You've been to the MG?

I cut the top of my foot pretty bad on Friday, slipped on some algae covered rocks, and can't wear a fin for at least week. We'll go as soon as I heal.

It's been 3 weeks since the above post. The bump has subsided to the point where it's not really visible. I can still feel it palpating the dog's head but I believe it's well on the way to be gone. More so as she grows and so does her head. May be due partially to separating the rott from the mastiff which eliminated rough play where she could receive continuing impact to that area. A friend recently commented that he had the same thing happen to one of his pups and it was due to trauma to the head, in his puppy's case a bite from another dog, and fluid accumulating in a pocket in the same area. I got off pretty good with no veterinary expenses. He paid for surgery to achieve the same thing I did only faster. General anesthetic is dangerous to a dog and I believe more so to a puppy. There is a very real risk of the dog never coming out of the anesthetic.

Thanks Harry. The pin is 16mm long (not important if it's longer but can't be shorter) and 1.46mm in diameter. I hate the thought that the pin is part of yet another kit, who knows what that one may include.

What's the range of depth in the MG?
-
Correcto, although I thought he dives out of Key West.
-
Those fish are fast movers, good shot.
I have to add that bonito is the only fish with which I've ever felt that I could use a faster tracking gun. I guess the pneumatic showed its advantage there.
-
But it was flat and the water clear near the beach where it's usually most dirty. This makes me think that it's even clearer further out. The water also felt warm, maybe because it's so chilly today. Time to beach dive!
-
Didn't dive just went for a walk on the beach with my dog..

jfjf is pulling your legs.
I dove with him out Florida.
He'll cruise at 80' freediving looking for fish. I bomb down, look around, bomb up.
Scuba-wise, they go for wrecks in the 200-300' range.
Quote from jfjfYeah I was yanking his chain, but also don't freedive or scuba dive quite that deep.
Quote from zenspearoDisplay MoreDude, you must have been showing off the day I was there.
I still remember the wreck where I bombed down to look for groupers, and in the clear water, it sure was deeper than I thought. One glimpse and I was up.
Then I looked down and saw you under one of the overhangs and cruising... :0
In my defense, I was wearing borrowed fins.
I say henqueero = :imgay:

I agree that you should start shooting smaller fish at shallower depths on scuba if you're experienced. But you could have gone down just to take a look. Scuba is easy you just have to keep track of the time.

Why did you decide not to do it? I was faced with a similar situation at Tenneco towers when we tried to recover a lost shaft. My biggest problem was that I didn't weigh myself properly and had to continuously kick to not float back up. I was diving head down and legs up the whole time. I did the ascent and the safety stops the same way, kicking towards the bottom so as not to rise to the surface too fast. Of course that was maybe 100' max depth.
