Devil's Hollow depth 47 fsw, temp 85 degrees, visibility varied 1 foot to 6 feet.

Talk about a whole lot of FUN. :D

the team found a bunch of boat anchors, over 20 some sunglasses, filled 100 bags of trash, and one nice watch


What a perfect morning to dive, a little cool to start.

It was a great day, I dove with the Oak Hill Scuba group on the aquaholics party barge. I saw from 0-maybe 7 or 8 ft vis as extremes, average was 2-4'. Lots of stuff to pick up over in devils though, those party boaters have been working hard giving us plenty to pick up. I brought up about a bag and a half.

Was a beautiful morning to be out on lake, got to see a lot of familiar faces as well as new folks. Good eats afterwards, burgers and dogs with chips and non alcoholic bevs. After enjoying that I went chasing down a margarita and sat on patio to see who won which prizes. 2 from our boat won, but not me this year.

The youngest diver on our boat was just 13, here she is modeling some of found party beads and sunglasses

Thanks to everyone involved in organizing this, nice to get 5 tons of garbage out of lake and have a great time too.

I want to know who the jack a$$ from SCUBA Land is that pulled up the marine head AGAIN from mansfield?!? Two years in a row some idiot has pulled the toilet (which had rocks piled up around it for a reason). And why clean the scuba park? Not like boats are dumping their trash overboard there. Clean the cove. And don't pull into someone else's dive site with divers in the water... SMARTS! All I can say, SMARTS!

I have two more to replace that one that I have from a remodel. Just need to find time to go diving. If anyone would like to perform the replacement honors sooner just PM me and we'll make arrangements. (maybe bring a bolt gun this time and steel cable...hehe

Booby trap it so when it is lifted, a spear gun fires and takes out the unfortunate dumb-arse. I could be game for doing that this week...
