Sorry,

I only brought the camera on Saturday. That was the day off for the Carp. :happy: The Bass in the First Picture was a BIG old Bass. I wish I had some size reference to measure him against. He kept circling in the same general area and coming up to me to get a closer look.

Jim,
I just looked at my computer..I had more dives than you, 175 with a max of 13 ft.. It says my head exploded on the 110th dive.. I had a great time Sunday.. Thanks to you and Anal Dave... I was home sitting on the couch last night, and it felt like the couch was acending and decending.. Also thanks to Ed and Frank for the Quarry time, and the little classroom session from Ed, that helped ALOT!!! I now understand how great that place is for training!!!!! :scubadive

Jim, see you Tuesday, hopefully we can start right were we left off Sunday..


Thanks Again everybody... Frank, Ed, Jim, Army Bob and Anal Dave... I had a blast..

Was he among the ones that hang out around that sunken tree, near the shallow wall between the peninsulas? Lot of curious/friendly big bass over there.
