Thats a cool turtle. Boaters don't know what a dive flag is either. You did have a dive flag right? I've had them try to salvage the dive flag thinking it was free being out there all alone.
 

Wide variety, like the turtle!
 

AWESOME HUNT - NICE FINDS:icon_thumleft:
 

That is a cool turtle! Congrats on all the great finds.

I recommend a speargun with 12ga powerhead for dealing with boats too close to my flag.
 

Good job on all the silver, SnT....Looks like a great place to hunt:icon_thumleft:
 

I like that Honu(turtle) WTG:icon_thumleft:,HH:hello:
 

WTG!!! SnT Looks like you got the hang of it now!!
All them targets in 1 hour, you must have spent all that time digging.
Keep it up.

The water has good vis it's deep, sandy bottom and spring feed! On dive #1 I forgot my goodie bag so the good stuff went in the wet suit other things in my gloves, sharp items had to leave but #2 dive I cleaned up everything! I think I may have a few more productive dives on this small area! Next dive will be in the deep end(40ft) where the last dock anchor is maybe I'll find some gold out deep!

Thanks everyone for the pos replies

Awesome hunt!!
 

Im with everyone else, Thats one CooL looking Turtle !!!
 

Ok, all you have to do is surface and say to the fishermen, " Gentlemen, I'm with the CIA and my partner will be here shortly. We have a tip that al quida operatives were trying to move radioactive material and lost it in this area. Please understand that this can be very dangerous and please alert everyone you know to stay out of this area. My geiger counter recorded some leakage and if I find the container and it is compromised, a hazmat team will be sent in to clean up. Again, please vacate the area and tell everyone else to do so". If they ask to see a badge, flash the turtle at them. May work 2-3 times. Any questions just say you didn't find anything.
