    They seem to hold events in the parking area often so here is an alternate parking area.

    Hello thanks for the video:
    A few things perhaps to assist you in future dives and make them safer.
    Always dive w a buddy, as so many things may happing during a dive.
    A dive flag is a must.
    Also, you dint have “pure oxygen” in your thanks, oxygen under pressure becomes poison to humans.
    So, you either have air, which contains around 21%oxygen and 70% of nitrogen, or another mix like nitrox.
    God bless and be safe!!!!
    Also, I saw there was wanter in your mask, you can easily got rid of it down there, just google it or youtube it and you will find how to perform that maneuver.

      Thanks for watching. I was on a rebreather which only requires 100% pure oxygen at 20 feet or shallower. Thanks for the comments and suggestions. Stay safe.

      There are seasons when you can lobster fish. I believe you can spear fish game fish any time of the year, but I’m the wrong guy to ask. Call one of the local shops in south Florida like Force-E Scuba. I bet they have all the info on something like that.

      @@coachbillturpin Yeah no worries and thanks. I use the Hollis Katana 2 BCD with my Kiss Sidewinder. I’m a huge fan of Hollis BC’s and the K2 was designed specifically (I believe) for that CCR. I use a Scubapro Solo mask because it has a large nose pocket. Recently switched to the Apex VX1 though. Also has a large nose pocket and is super soft. My primary light is a Big Blue VTX 8000 max. I love having a video light and narrow beam in one. I had the Mares Avanti Quattro + fins. They are neutral and provide a lot of propulsion. I recently started using the Deep 6 fins for the same reasons but those are shorter which is great in tighter places. I primarily use Waterproof brand boots, mostly because they are comfortable and have locking zippers. The zipper almost always unzips on my cheaper mares boots. I’ve been using a GoPro 10 to record my videos lately. Hope that helps. Let me know if you have any questions about specific gear.

    No dive flag, and using a rebreather so not even bubbles.....You deserved a fine and an idiot of the day award.

      I don’t disagree but I can’t say I won’t do it again.
