    Eat mo' Lionfish?

    These Lionfish were killed on my dive trip to Belize in October. The guy cleaning them actually got stuck by one of the spines as he was cleaning them. He wasn't too happy about that!

    Chumming the water

    I just got back from a cruise and did a shore dive on Cocoa Cay. There were no "accidents" or injuries, and everything ended up ok, but I learned a valuable lesson. The dive started from the shore. We geared up and waded out into the water and checked our buoyancy. The plan was for a wave...

    What is the BIGGEST OBSTACLE TO DIVING?

    My wife likes to snorkel, but the thought of breathing compressed air freaked her out. So I thought I would eliminate her fear by hooking up my regulator and letting her breath of it while sitting on the couch. The only problem was that when she took her first breath she inhaled a spider...

    Sorry to report a missing diver, over 24 hours now out of Jupiter, FL.

    What difference does it make it information is given out on this board or a different one? I never even know the other board existed until I read this thread. Maybe someone else who is only familiar with this site has access to resources that could be used in the search. I am going to call some...

    Considering a Shore dive in Daytona Beach

    I was in Atlantic Scuba. The instructor did not work for Atlantic Scuba though. I do not know what his name was. He just happened to be in the shop when I was getting a tank filled. I overheard him tell Dave, the owner, that he was an instructor, and then while I was waiting for the tank to be...
