This happened last week during our search for the A-hole in Fernan Lake.
We had two and sometimes three search patterns going at once with each having a 50% overlap.
Close to shore (50 out on average) we were over the rocks and had roughly 5 of visibility. The rest of the time visibility was flat out zero or better yet the absence of light.
During one of our overlaps I felt my search line signal me in some unknown language. I looked back at my line and saw Jamie, the only gal on the team, kicking my line, which had hitched a ride on one of her fin straps.
Thinking she knew what was going on, I reached up, grabbed her leg and removed the line.
She let out this blood-curdling scream I could hear very clearly. We both got a good laugh out of it on the bottom. Then back to our patterns.
When we got back topside she said she had a feeling that the guy was not in the water and had a mental picture of him watching us. She said she was deep into that thought when I grabbed her. Enough said.
She was diving dry so she didnt feel the rope.
It was sure funny.
