Dumpsterdiver,

A couple of questions...why didn't you spear those four lion fish on that plane wreck? I hear they are good eating, and a real invasive species menace menace in the Atlantic/Gulf area. Also, why not free dive to the plane like those other divers? :wink: (Just kidding, but it would relieve you of the hassle of carrying a pony bottle.)

I saw the Dacor Pacer second stage. It is a very good pony/octopus regulator.

It looked like a fun dive, and with a pony bottle yet.

We didn't really take lionfish because you have to have solid container for them or trim their fins with shears... One solution is a lot of drag, the other is time consuming at depth. So we normally don't mess with them on a deep dive.

On shallower, more frequently dived sites, they are much less common.
