Now I could definitely go for a few spiny lobsters. I don't know of anyone who has ever ate a spiny oyster. Personally I prefer my oysters to be hairless before I eat them.:eyebrow: AL

Thanks for posting this. I've been curious about this dive and trying to decide if i want to do it. AL

When did you eat one? and where did you collect it from? AL

If you're going to be diving the Panhandle, Redneck Riveria, or as it sometimes known as LA (lower Alabama) this is the place you want to be - http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/deep-dixie-divers/ Most of your beach dive expereinces will probably be in the passes. Panama City may have a...

Since you are from Ohio I'll say a 3mm should be OK. Bring a hood if you get cool you can wear it. I've also got a 1mm vest I slip under my 3mm when the water temps drop below 70. I can only echo what others have said here, Key Largo to Marathon has the best diving. Key West has the best...

I retired my 3 old 6351's after Phil showed me the tank that failed in his shop. Mine still hold air but were out of Hydro. I had discussed whether or not hydroing and continuing to use my old Al 80's (two of them dating to the 70's) with him while he was still inspecting and filling these...

Sounds like a normal day on the Outer Banks ;-)

Love the report.

Going to sign up today!! See y'all there tomorrow. AL

Due to the qualifications Captn Morgan listed most of the divers going to the Oriskany are more capable than you may find on the typical Cattleboat in the Keys. Those that are not are probably going out with a diveshop, DM, instructor, Dive Club etc and already have a mother hen. That being said...

I've dove with blackbeards. Really fun trip and some good diving. Don't expect much privacy and there's not much personal space. Dove in March, I wore a skin and a shorty on most of my dives but I'm warm natured. I am comfortable in Vortex with a 3/2 fullsuit. It was lobster season so we ate a...

We're planning on diving there on Saturday and I need to drop in on Phil and sign up for his night dive. Allen

Exactly how much traveling to the Red Sea do you expect to do? For diving the wrecks around GB the backplate and wing is a great suggestion. However if you are going to travel frequently to the Red Sea you may want to consider one of the adjustable soft packs & wing. It's lighter and easier to...

Gonna have to look these guys up when I get out to Hawaii.

I like diving the O with Gary's Gulf Divers out of Orange Beach. He takes good care of you. He's got some 100's, 95's, and ponies available for rent. My O configuration is a 100 with a 30% Nitrox mix on back and a slung 50. We usually bounce the deck and as the island is huge we split it to...

Loved the pictures thanks for sharing. I get to dive with some of the members of the GLSPS although they come down here and dive in my warmer waters with me. i am impressed with teh quality of diver that comes from diving the Great lakes. Though I would love to one day dive on one of the Great...

I really like HP 100s, they are very versatile tanks and would make a great 1st tank purchase. As you notice most of us who've been around a while have multiple tanks and sizes. I'm willing to bet you'll end up with several additional tanks of varying sizes if you dive for a while. I've got...

I am really looking forward to Football season. I am taking the family down to Auburns opener. The kids love walking around campus before the game. It'll be the first game for my son. AL

I've gone out with Discovery out of Beaufort. Wonderful diving. Cowjazz lists some of my favorite spots. Also liked the Indra, Carib Sea, and the Spar. Go by the Aquarium if you need a refresher on Fish IDing. AL

We are considering going with them next year. how about a big ol nice trip report when you get back ;) AL
