    Denise's very own NONSENSE THREAD

    I resemble that remark. First heard it many years ago on a very old TV show. Guy was asked if he "suffered from insanity" and he replied, "No, I rather enjoy it."

    Dive Video - USS Massachusetts on 7/4/09

    Wow. That is really a great report. Makes me want to rush right over to Pensacola and go diving. It is a shame that the Oriskany is not at a similar depth. Would love to visit it while I am here in Panama City, but I don't really enjoy the deep dives much. By time you get down its time...

    St Andrews anyone?

    Wonderful dive at St Andrews. I couldn't believe the size of the Queen Angels down there along with lots of grouper and snapper. One of those grouper must have been 35# or so. I dove there several times a number of years ago but the vis was always really sucky and I didn't see much. This...

    Sounds great. I will be here for the next week so will plan to join up on Saturday. Will likely be down there tomorrow (Friday) about 9:30a.m. with a couple tanks. High tide Friday will be at 11:26 a.m. Hope there will be someone around about that time. If not I guess I can always wait...

    Any Lionfish sightings in Curacao?

    If they start showing up you need to make sure they get on the menu at SOL Food! That ought to create enough demand to keep them in check. ;) YouTube - Lionfish Hunter Catch 'Em YouTube - Lionfish Slayers

    LBTS Sat. July 25. Hibiscus St. Who wants to dive?

    Sorry my timing was off and I missed this gathering of the faithful. I think Grier was packing to leave the last time I was there at "Lobster Bag Tickle Stick". My wife is itching to go to Florida next month for some "much needed vacation time". We only had two weeks on a cruise in Jan, three...

    Key West Dive Operator Recommendations?

    Are there any areas in the keys where you can enjoy some decent shore diving? Looking to go down next month and trying to decide whether to go all the way to the keys or just stop further north. Wife likes to snorkel, but is a non-diver.

    Lake Ouachita Spearfishing Tournament

    That cat was big. I understand it weighed out at over 60#, but unfortunately they were not entered in the tournament. :shakehead: There were lots of cats as well as rough fish caught this year, but few walleye and there were NO crappie weighed in this year! I didn't see one all day and...

    Lake Ouachita, Arkansas Dive Sites?

    A 3/2mm wet suit would be fine in Ouachita all summer. I was in the water today with no wet suit and it was very comfortable. Estimate vis at about 10' where I was swimming. Didn't look at thermometer but I suspect it was about 83 or so at the surface. I was not diving today. Ouachita...

    Lake Ouachita, Arkansas Dive Sites?

    The Dam site is really the only shore accessible good dive site I am aware of. You definitely should use a float and flag anywhere on the lake. There is a lot of boat traffic in the open areas of the lake. The dive site at the dam is not closed to boat traffic. Local game wardens do patrol...

    Grand Cayman vs. Roatan?

    Do some shore diving in Grand Cayman and if you like a boat dive in Roatan and Cozumel. At GCM when you get off the ship you can just turn right and walk 200 yards or so to "Eden Rock". There you can do shore dives super cheap and really fun. The coral there is not spectacular, but the swim...

    Small dive op for cruise ship passenger?

    Where they shuttle you to the beach you can just turn right and walk about 200 yards and you will find several dive ops in a row. You can go out on boats with them, or do as I did and shore dive from their back yard. I only had time for one dive before I had to meet my wife so I joined...
