Last Dive of the Year Probably

[ScubaDetector]

Well the water is getting colder. I used 2/3rds of a tank today and froze. I should have put my hooded vest on but didn't. I might try one more time but will have that on for sure. I am still cold after an hour and a half ride home in an 85 degree truck!

And for my exciting finds! They all fit in one picture! Won't have to bore everyone looking at different ones. No coins, no rings, nothing interesting. Fishing sinkers, an electronic cig, a pull tab and a brass swim cap buckle.



Still fun to be out. Just too cold to stay out.

I will still be here ogling finds and hopefully doing a bit more. We will see. I still have my trusty E-Trac that will find me a land silver or two every once in a while.

OH come on, it CAN'T be that cold in your water. I spend a week at a time dredging under the Arkansas river at 10,000 elevation. THAT is some cold water! Get back out there and find more goodies!

Water temp as of yesterday was 64 degrees. At the marina the DNR folks were there taking the temp. They saw steel head trout. Nope, if trout like it I don't. I used to dive in the rivers of Utah. Now it is time to let the younger generation take my place. In the spring I would probably go for it, because the sun would warm me up when I got out of the water. Now I freeze when I get out.

What ? ! You can't go out like that. Your last hunt for the season has to be a huge pile of rings !

Sorry. I post them as I find them. Nothing more, nothing less. I am not like some others that have to prove they are the best. I like most on here is as honest as they come. If I don't find it, I don't post it. I love this hobby too much to be fake.

Pouring rain yesterday and today. Too cold to even think about one more dive. I am remodeling my war room and will have all my gear put back in it hopefully next week. This is a before picture:
