    What to wear

    Even with the bags, don't you find it a bit hard to get your boots through the wetsuit legs? ;)

    Airlines and equipment

    I got one of those padded "Regulator bags" that is the size of a small backpack. In fact it has stowable backpack straps that zip inside. I carry it on with the following: Regulator set, because I don't like to rent this if my baggae is late or lost, which has happened about 4 times. Dive...

    Hey, I like that. Think I'll request it next time I'm somewhere else. Avoid the "line".

    Divemasters, Instructors, & Dive Veterans

    Hi FW, How about, "Going to Key Largo without ME!" The fact you are concerned about these things shows you THINK about whats going on and you'll likely witness far more of these than you commit. A big one for me is blocking the way out/off of the boat while some small framed person is...

    Redeployment

    Hey 2Tours, Man, what a bummer. I feel your pain. Hey, if you look at a map, you'll see Colorado is kinda in the middle of where you'll be going to-&-back from(well, and a little west). Anyway, if you stop here sometime, ditto on the Big Mac, etc. offer. Bring your dive gear, there's some...

    I need some help

    Very cool, Vickie. As a former member of W.P.D. Explorer Post 831, I know exactly how beneficial this program is for people under 21 that want to be cops. Or Sheriff deputies. It worked for me but I no longer wear the "Blue Suit". That was, oh, 18 yrs ago. Wow, I don't FEEL old. If I was...

    Catch your fish and eat it too, or what?

    Dang Frank, if I could do that I'd save a bundle on gas, bait, etc. My friends would all have fish-envy. The fish wouldn't even have to be hungry or want to bite. You are the MAN! Hey, do you have one of those T-shirts that say, "Women want me, Fish fear me?"

    Catch your fish and eat it too, or what?

    Yes, I find it strikes home and is very funny. I didn't think anyone would respond so quickly! By the way, where'd you get a cool Roy Rogers six-shooter like that at such a young age? I had some like it, too.

    Catch your fish and eat it too, or what?

    I eat some of the fish I catch, and release others if they are healthy, based on species(quality of table fare) or legal length, etc. Indeed, the price per pound is high if you consider gas for the truck, boat, bait, equipment, etc. I was also brought up with the, "you have to eat everything...

    Chuck Norris is tough...

    Chip104, you are too harsh, man! And, I'm not from Greece but that was a good one. I used to do that stuff waaay back in my college days. I heal to slowly now, haha! Anyway, I'd a blocked it, then done a sweep on you ;)

    Best semi-dry suit?

    Hi Tiburon, I have dived with my semi-dry(a Ski-Warm) which was originally purchased for waterskiing, several times. After that season, I wondered, "Why bother?" It has good seals which don't leak unless I crane my neck just right, and was quite warm but really, why not just get a true dry...

    Colorado Lobster

    Hi Jim, There's a bunch of old mines here with tailings piles still yellow and white from the Arsenic that was used to "leach", I think that is the correct term, the gold from the ore, or rock. Yes, I am indeed aware that there are a few rivers or streams close to my home that I would NEVER...

    Chuck Norris is tough...

    I thought this was really funny... Chuck Norris' tears cure cancer. Too bad he has never cried. MacGyver can build an airplane out of gum and paper clips, but Chuck Norris can kill him and take it. Chuck Norris once roundhouse kicked someone so hard that his foot broke the speed of...

    Colorado Lobster

    Hey Tom, Well, if there's that much pollution in that lake, a lot more people than myself are in for a surprise. It's one of the city's water supplies. Very clean, I think, by regional standards, which are pretty good anyway. By the way, cool last name. Mine is Winter. Guess my relatives...

    A little R&R on the H2O...

    This was about three weeks ago. I'm at the helm, my good Dive Buddy, Brian is sitting in the middle of the stern, and that's Lewis in the starboard seat in the first pic. We limited on Rainbow Trout in short order on light tackle. We just cruised the rest of the morning and that evening...

    Hello to all!

    Ok, you got me. Congrats, it's about time you got on here and joined the fun! I wanted to go diving so bad today, I just dumped a whole cup of water all over myself and computer. Unfortunately it was not my dive computer. DOH! Anyway, welcome ME II !

    make it yourself single use powerhead

    Wow! I'm not sure what to make of this. I'm all for spearfishing and a handloader as well. Seeing as the 5.56mm NATO, or .223 Rem cartridge can generate over 51,000 CUP, I would be hesitant to use this one. And, did the person who made these actually put the .223 cartridge in PVC tube ONLY...
