Quote from Apnea addict

I'm afraid I don't understand why everyone is so up in arms about this. Did you happen to read this part?:

"Once areas are designated as critical habitat, federal projects or permits and projects with federal funding are required to ensure their actions do not adversely modify the animal's habitat. Designating critical habitat does not affect citizens engaged in activities on private land that do not involve a federal agency. "

I suspect people are still emotional from the MLPA fiasco and see this as another assault on fishing? If black abs are found around PV the feds may force the state to take action to prevent human interference in the form of closures.

Quote from Bulit 7

what really gets me is that I considered him a friend. I would have never compromised a friendship over money. My wife tells me I'm naive and gullible .

Tony Grogan: I know you come here and lurk. You told me so. I hope it was worthed to you. People like you disgust me. You represent a lot of what is wrong with this world we live in. Cheers dirtbag!

You should consider taking the grouper incident to the department of fish and game. It should be investigated. The dispute (theft) involving your labor maybe harder to prove but you should file a complaint with the State just to start the process and provide the back up for future claims by other victims. Just a thought.

4 x 16mm would be just about right. 3 x 2Omm is not a great combination.. 2Omm bands kick like a mule, and I can imagine the muscular stalemates involved with Loading a 2Omm band on a Long Gun... Cut the Slot for 4 bands. You can always take one off.

Saw this on FB last week:

: Sensitive California Shores Protected for Endangered Black Abalone; Ocean Warming, Acidification Threaten Rare Shellfish

Not sure how it will play out.

Quote from LunkerBuster

i very much agree, but do not lose sight of the fact that not all knowledge is learned by doing..the elders and experienced ones in a given tribe are a resource who should not be overlooked. to have a community that is not about fostering knowledge is a shame, we cannot forget that we are here to learn and teach ultimately....and enjoy that fine bikini thread

a MUCH wiser man once said,

"learn from the mistakes of others...you will not live long enough to make them all yourself"

So true. The sharing of some knowledge requires that trust be established. Some knowledge should be shared as part of a long term education that progresses through achievement of incremental goals and trust building. In short, don't give out information to unknown or untrusted people.

Isn't that quote by Eleanor Roosevelt?

Knowledge should be earned.

Nice video. Seals are awesome animals to dive with.

Quote from LunkerBuster

HSUS is a scary group of radicals.

More likely lawyers and MBA's are running this operation. Just a hunch.

Cut them on the long side. Reduce length if needed.

Quote from chris oak

wow nice haul! If you can, put up a one word sentence on your first post and then reply to it on the second post, it keeps the lurkers down and only members will be able to read your second post onwards

Good advice and nice catch Sam.

These vids were sent to me by an Australian diver using the Pursuit lens.

Occupational hazard...

I don't like seeing large animals in tanks or cages but the slavery issue being invoked is disgusting.

Floatline for any fish big enough to take your gun when your reel fails or band tangles.
