I tried to dive the Ruby E. today but the viz was terrible (about 3 feet). Is the dredging in mission bay messing things up? Is there a decent time to dive?:dontknow: Any help will be appreciated. Thanks a million!

Thanks for the input!

I'm looking at the Hollis 212 2nd stage with the DC1 1st stage and am looking for some feedback from anyone who uses or has used Hollis regs. Thanks.

Those are great shots. What was the depth?

Thanks for the help - I implemented the advice on my last dives and it helped immensely.

Has anyone gone diving in Panama? Years ago when I was in the army I went snorkeling in a place called Isla Grande - it was great. I've often thought it would be fun to go back on SCUBA. There is also an old fort called Porto Bello on the Atlantic side that might be interesting but I can't find...

Can anyone supply me with good coordinates to the Lazy Days? A few of us are going out on a friend's boat and wanted to dive there. Thanks.

I have the DC 600 and the digital strobe. Shots 5' or closer are fantastic, no problems. But when I want to shoot something farther away - say a diver by the Yukon's guns - nothing turns out. If I use the strobe I get back scatter and darkness behind the back scatter. HELP!

I think that you'll find that the majority of the gear on the market is very good (no manufacturer wants a lawsuit for gear failure). Having purchased a good amount of gear for me and my family (I am an equipment junkie) I would recommend the following: Test out different gear from your LDS's...

I have to concur with most of the others here - get a new suit. Check with your local dive shop(s) (LDS) for a good deal. If you're not sure what thickness to get, see if they'll let you use a rental or two just to get a feel. Personally I find that a good 3mm or 3/2mm is a versatile suit. Happy...

I am looking for some input about diving at the Children's Pool in San Diego. Situation: we have a family vacation in San Diego next week and I am taking my wife on her first ocean dive. We only have a couple of hours so we are opting for some shore dives. I like to dive La Jolla Cove and the...

How long did it take you to circle the island and did you think it was a good dive? Also, what kind of depth did you find? Curt and I dive at the end of DT on Monday the 12th in the morning - tons of fish (we pulled out a lot of trash too). We stayed to the left along the wall and really...

I'm going to San Diego the 28th - 30th and driving home on the 31st so that's a no go. I did, however, join the Lake Pleasant money club myself this past Monday -- while it was only a George Washington, it was nonetheless found money, as it were. I also found a pair of fins as well. Come out...

Steve, what are you holding in that picture? Did you find money at the lake?

Curt (AKA crusty scuba pirate) and I were planning on a night dive and Saturday might work. I'll let you know. Greg

I enjoyed the show and thought that for the first go around it came off quite well. More publicity next time may help. Also, I think that some of the details were a little sketchy and when people got there things were different than originally anticipated. Does anyone have any idea how many...

Steve: No one from the park has called me back about cordoning off an area. If you have a contact name, you'd better run with it. Otherwise we'll have to set out about a dozen dive buoys and hope that the the jet skiers don't use them for slalom course. Of course we could always tie rope from...

Uncle!! I have tried to post a couple of photos on SB (now that I am an amphibious shutter bug in my own small way) but have been utterly unsuccessful. I would welcome some assistance posting the three or four decent shots I've taken if anyone would be so kind as to assist. Thanks. Greg:search:

Who is going to head up the tube stake grilling brigade? Did you want to post some kind of a food sign up sheet and make an event out of it? Also, right now people are filling up the area pretty quick -- they are getting there on Friday night and are putting their boats in the water right at...

What time are you going Steve?
