    Did I do something wrong?

    I agree 100% with this response. You are teamed up with a buddy (2 divers). I am not aware of any system that teaches a "herd" system. If your buddy team has to end the dive, so be it. I commend you for diving your plan and not letting others pressure you into something that you were not...

    For someone new to diving...

    Hey Heather, it was a pleasure meeting you the other day. You have one of the best places to dive in Florida right there where you work. If you catch the visibility right (High tide) you can see all kinds of marine life. It's an easy dive if you time it right. Heck, you could probably get a dive...

    Fish Feeder (underwater)

    If you are wanting to feed/attract the fish while you are diving, use the pressurized cheese in a can. You can dispense it as needed to feed the fish and the fish love it. If you are wanting a more permanate solution to attract and keep the fish in the area, use a crawfish sack (plentiful in...

    Dangers of spearfishing on AIR. Help/advice needed

    Don't come to Louisiana then....That's how we roll here in the bayou state. Shooting a 100+ pound amberjack without scuba would be suicide. Look up the Helldivers out of New Orleans. They consistantly dive to 200 fsw to shoot the big boys. Try doing that without scuba. ---------- Post added...

    Aldora Divers review May27th - June 1st 2012

    Sorry, been away from the computer for a little while. To answer your questions: 1. The steel tank didn't bother my wife. She used the smaller tank, which I think was a 100, and not the 120 that I used. Her tank was just a little shorter. 2. The most divers that we had on the boat was 6...

    Aldora Divers review May27th - June 1st 2012

    Some of you may remember the review that I posted on Eagle Ray Divers last year. Without going into details, my wife and I had a horrible experience with them. During this experience, we had the pleasure of stumbling into the dive shop of Aldora Divers. We were greeted by a very professional...

    What did you buy that you regret?

    A dive bag with shoulder straps and no wheels. My wife and I walked around Cozumel carrying all of our gear on our backs and she never let me live that one down. We both wished we would have bought the mesh dive bag with wheels.

    Eagle Ray Divers, Cozumel......Review

    Hi Christi..... I am glad that someone gets the point.......To answer your questions, my wife has had very little training. She did 2 resort type dives (Discover Scuba) in Jamaica October 2010. She was instructed on the basic skills of scuba and was required to practice them in a swimming pool...

    Eagle Ray Divers, Cozumel......Review

    Sorry MMM, I just can't see what my inexperience in diving has to do with expectations on professionalism, safety and customer service. These things should be expected and demanded of any operation, whether it is a dive shop or any other operation that you pay for. If YOU do not expect this from...

    Eagle Ray Divers, Cozumel......Review

    Dave, the professionalism that we received at your shop is what I and everyone should expect from any dive operation. Because of the professionalism and courtesy demonstrated by your shop, you have earned my business the next time we are in Cozumel. The employees of your shop definitely went...

    Eagle Ray Divers, Cozumel......Review

    First of all let me clarify a few things in my post. It was totally my fault that the paperwork was lost. In no way do I blame this mishap on Eagle Ray. The only reason that this was mentioned in the post was to be able to compliment Aldora on the professional and courteous treatment that we...

    Eagle Ray Divers, Cozumel......Review

    They allowed my wife to dive a "Discover Scuba" dive....... Antonio was the "DM" that almost drowned her or at the very least, make her never want to get into the water again.......I'm glad that she was not discouraged from this experience. She will get certified in the very near...

    Eagle Ray Divers, Cozumel......Review

    I know that this is quite long but I wanted to share our experience with Eagle Ray Divers so that no one else would make the mistake of booking a dive with this dive shop. We were scheduled to arrive in Cozumel, Mexico on April 29th, 2011 via the Norwegian Spirit at 0800hrs. After reading...

    dive torch consideration

    I second the Dorsy. The brightest light you can buy for the money....... I've seen a lot of more expensive lights that were no where near as bright as the Dorcy.......Great light!!
