    Hello

    Watch out for the Kempenfelt Bay monster that looms the depths of lake Simcoe, my freind and I almost didn't make it back last time out on a dive. I suggest a dive knife and even a spear gun when diving this lake. The creature was huge with long teeth and crabbing hands.


    Be careful.

    All we need are some marshmallows, a fire and a tent.

    In all seriousness though...

    I'm a little more worried about the dudes I saw trolling with a 50 foot net the other day.

    They probably caught the monster along with anything else the bay has been hiding so no worries.

    Big Grin December Diving

    Too Bad Free Float,
    Not to Worry, When you finally get to see the Morrison you'll see that that the water weeds can sometimes grow greener in your own back shore dive.

    Lake Simcoe is just Different... look out for the huge fish, they can get pretty playful... and sometimes they'll sneak up on ya and...
    Well you'll be fine.

    That's okay....... I have what my instructor termed a "dive sword" strapped to my leg. Besides, have you never heard stories of just how mean women can get? That monster better reconsider messing with me.........

    Just got back from 2 dives at Big Bay Point (...

    Just got back from 2 dives at Big Bay Point (1 night) and a night dive on the Morrision.

    Seems to be more fish every passing week.

    Saw one that must have been 3 1/2 feet 'cause it looked like over 4. Temps down another degree (45f) We took the line south on the way up which was nice travelling back 'cause we didn't have to kick at all with the current. Nice leisurely drift back to the main line.

    I never bothered going as far as the two jugs before at Big Bay. Always got bored at the toilet. They are kind of humorous. Feels like what diving with my mother would be like if she dove...
