Scallops

[xjeslesx]

The scallops are still out there. I haven't been out scallop diving on the Northshore for a while. I decided to head out and see if there were any scallops left on the beds. Yes, they are still out there in numbers, between the 3 of us we got around 400-450 scallops.
Yes, we were diving by out by Misery-Bakers area. If you are from the area you know where I'm talking about.

Shore Dive or Boat?

I wasn't with xjeslesx during this trip but have been out with him scalloping there before. It's done by boat.

Went out with Fran a few weeks ago. When I landed on the bottom my pal was wrestling a nice 4 pounder out from under a rock. He waved it at me and was all excited until I pointed out that it was notched. As he was letting it go I glanced down and noticed a scallop. Oh, there is another. And there is a third.

Instant change of plans. So as my pal started scurrying around looking under rocks I started filling up my bag with scallops. We were only in 30ish feet of water and I had a tank that was stuffed full of air so I had a nice long, long dive. Managed to float one overflowing catch bag to the top and fill up the second halfways before it was time to go. My buddy never did catch a legal bug.
