I know there have been several posts regarding this subject but it can't hurt to have another one. Please OW divers stay out of the caves! I was diving Ginnie Springs today and we had to deter two OW divers with gauges dangling and dinky flash lights from entering the cave. The worst part was that the other buddy was encouraging their buddy to go into the cave. I found out later that another team had also intervened on these two ladies who were dead set on getting into the cave. They would wait until they thought that all the cave divers were gone but they didn't realize that we like to hide in holes during deco. All I did was point down into the cave and sternly shake my finger no and they listened but man did they give us dirty looks on the surface. You could tell that they were mad about us interrupting their plans. They were lucky I decided not to turn them in to the management for carrying lights. I probably would have had there been someone around.
