News Update: The Corps of Engineers is holding back flows in many of their impoundments to help relieve some of the flooding in some of the lower states, KY, Tenn etc. Summer pool levels are expected to be much higher in many of the lakes of WV as a result. Summersville Lake could go as much...

The Manta Ray Night Dive just off shore of Hawaii really is one of those must do dives. It should be experienced and enjoyed by all divers. This is also a great experience if you prefer to snorkel or just haven’t gotten around to getting scuba certified. We went out with Big Island Divers...

So I finally received the pictures of the Black Water Night Dive that we did off the coast of Kona, Hawaii (The Big Island). A little background for those who don't know, the Black Water Dive is a shallow, night dive in very deep water. The purpose is to get the opportunity to see, up close and...

We just got back from spending a week on Maui and a week on the Big Island. On Maui we dove with B&B Scuba. Brad and Blesi, owners of the shop, were both gracious and informative. http://www.bbscuba.com/contactus I have been out with a fair number of shops over the years and I can honestly...

Trip Report Florida Feb 2009 This probably belongs in the Florida Forum but I thought the Bottom Feeders would enjoy it more to know someone got some warm water diving in this winter. We are traveling in a group of 13 from West Virginia and Maryland. This is our dive shops annual...

My wife (Clear Blue) and I are heading to the islands for our 10th anniversary. We have set aside a block of time in 2009, 18 Oct - 7 Nov. (three weeks). Some of this is travel time of course and exact dates for being on the islands may shift somewhat when we nail down accommodations. I'll keep...

Who has been up there lately. I need to know for tomorrow if anyone knows. Thanks in advance.

Hey out there. All you bottom feeders sound off and let's see who is out there. Many times I have needed or looked for local dive buddies and get togethers but there never seems to be enough people on this forum to scare up any real interest. The Mid-Atlantic area is huge and that makes it...

Now that the servers have been changed and everything seems to be moving right along how do I get rid of the old Dive Profile on my profile page? I have two. Thanks in advance.

So why doesn't PADI or other agencies make a C-Card that lists all of your certs. and respective numbers on one card? Everytime you get a new cert. a new card with the new cert and all your other certs. could be listed at once. It would make things easier for the diver who would only have to...

We have been doing a little research and thinking of taking a dive vacation to Bonaire. We wanted to go in Nov. but in my research I discovered that that is the rainy season. We would like to go during the low tourist season. How bad is the rainy season there? Is October a better month? We...

Recently purchased a 24' Pontoon boat specially designed for diving. I have initiated some searches for boat flag poles without much success. Does anyone know where I could purchase an easily collapsible flag pole that will extend well above the canopy of the vessel? About 10&#8217...

I will be traveling to Cedar Rapids to spend a week or so with some family. I would like to get a few dives in while I am there. Would prefer to have one of you Muck Divers show me some good diving as opposed to going out on my own. None of my family that live in that area are divers. Anyone...

I was wondering who has equipment checklists they use prior to a dive or trip and what is on that list. I have been working on this project for a while and thought it would be good to see some checklists that are already done. Post them here if you like.

I have been thinking for a while that I would like to do some wreck diving in the lakes. Being from WV the closest lake would be Erie and the southern tip of Huron is also a reasonable drive. If I were to drive up for a long weekend planning to get 4 or 5 dives in, where would be the best...

I had originally posted this on one of the old threads that had been started before our visit but I wasn't sure who was still subscribing to those threads so I copied it into this new thread to be sure that everyone was properly thanked. Hey all, We made it back to WV this evening without...

I haven't been hearing too much chatter from the gang that dives Summersville Lake in a while. I have been there several times this summer but I haven't ran into anyone from Scubaboard (that I know of). Have been diving a lot with people from and associated with Valley Scuba and Sports from...

Hello all, I am from WV and planning to be in Seattle from 20-26 Oct. and was wondering about getting a dive buddy to show me a couple nice local dives. I was hoping for a two tank dive on one of the days that I will be in the area. I have never been in the Pacific and I would hate to...

I realize this is very short notice but I have been out of town. I will be at the winter boat ramp this weekend and possibly looking for a diving partner. My son is doing his A.O.W. course and since I will be there with him I will want to dive. But rather than tag along with the class I would...
