    Venice Beach Dive

    My girlfriend and I will be getting into town tomorrow morning and are planning to do some shore dives/shark tooth hunts during the week and the following Saturday. I know ReefGuy had mentioned trying to get out there if possible, and if anyone else is interested, just let us know. I wanna find me one of them Megalodon teeth with a serial number on it! Seriously though, we won't be on here after this evening, so anyone wanting to do a dive this next week or following Saturday, just give us a ring.

    Greetings:

    I'm going to give these guys (well, guy and gal) a call and maybe set up a shore dive for this week.

    Anyone else in the area (orlando or otherwise) want to meet up for a Venice Beach shore dive? Have a day of the week that you prefer?

    Weekday divers unite! heh.....

    Greetings:

    Well, how's Wednesday then? Have you spoken to them before, maybe you should be the one to give them a call?

    I have a dive flag that I can bring for us to tow too, if no one else has one.

    I wrote them on another thread a couple of weeks ago, I was planning on giving them a call tonight.

    I have two dive flags that I can bring (and several buddy lines, in case).

    Wednesday is great with me. 9:30 at alhambra?

    Greetings:

    9:30 sounds great. from what I gather from mapquest, it'll take me about 2:45 to get there from here in Orlando, give or take a little. I'll have to figure out exactly where alhambra, but I'll get it ;-)

    My e-mail address is jp@securitalk.com

    I'll be bringing one bubble watcher with me (who I've been trying to convince to get certified), so he'll be on shore to keep an eye on gear & bags for us.

    Conditions were great today. Viz: 10 ft. calm seas, although water temps are dropping - 78° F - I'll need to put on a wet suit soon. 363 teeth in 2 dives.

    I hope you left some for us!!! I was on my way out there, and around North Port got a call. It seems my Son noticed that the dog had picked up a fishing lure, tried to get it out and got hooked himself . I spent the morning in the emergency room. . Son and dog doing ok.

    I left some for you - that's a pretty average haul. I've done worse, but I've done a whole lot better.

    Thanks for the dive report, I appreciate it.

    Over 350 teeth, WOW. I'm going to need a bigger collection bag, haha. What do you do with all of those teeth?
