 So I went out this afternoon for my 2nd ever trip diving around. The first time was in shallow water in T-dad. Today I went out in the bay, nice calm cove next to the Coast Guard station. Swam out to the little jetty an swam around, I had no weight belt on this trip(my first dive i borrowed one). So i had to stay shallow, but as I'm a newbie diver thats not a bad thing. Anyway had fun an looking forward to gaining more XP an eventually moving on to sticking some fish.

Way to go any time in the water is a good time, so what did you see any ab's or fish ?

couldn't see much of anything, was really cloudy. At on point i was in 5 0r 6' of water an dove down, put my hand down on the bottom to steady myself an something soft and wiggly shot out from under my hand. But was so murky i could'nt see what it was  :smt005
