Careful where you swim we have spent many years building a good relationship with the local fishermen, they are restricted to fishing at certain times, we can fish it in the early morning. Give them space, we need as many friends as we get at the moment.

One of them actually came along the wall to cast his line across the rocks and me. Now thats a stupid thing to do. The day before I had a pleasant conversation with some of them, so the agro is obviously limited to a few special retards from the hills!

Many years ago one of them, a very savage beast, threw his drop net at me but forgot to hang on to the rope, he was very apologetic as I dived to recover it for him. He was trying to tell me that the outside of the
Mariner was his club waters, what he did not relize was that I was diving there before the Mariner was built.

Im also a keen fisherman and would never dive where the lines are cast, at the time the stone was thrown i was well away from any rods and swimming away from them. I think alot of them believe we scare all the fish away just by our presents in the water, i supose its understandable to those that dont dive to think that.

Attempted a dive on Sunday, it was not good. Sea was all over the place and it was like diving in a washing machine. visability was about three feet. we were a couple of miles out on a wreck.

Thanks again to the nine-squad members who turned up at 6am for the training session at Bognor today. Trosky came out on top with a fine catch of bass one of which weighed in at 8.5 lbs. Also Keith for his catch of big mullet, Mick Veal is to be awarded a full quota of Brownie points for spending 1 hour in the water despite suffering from bronchial pneumonia, kidney infection and walking with a limp. The viz varied between 8 & 15ft on the outer reef with large mullet and kilo Pollack in abundance. Best story of the day, the manager (myself) dropped over a ledge in 10 mts turning slowly to the left two bass one about 12 lbs and the other ten slid out under my gun to the right easing the gun round the bigger fish turned back in with the ten pounder heading in to the haze straight on. With half a second to make my mind up I went for the smaller fish hoping to take the bigger fish out of the ledge on the next dive, I must be getting old the spear missed it completely and got stuck. As I moved forward to clear it the larger bass swam round me to have a look before thundering of into the gloom. Anybody want to but my kit!

no i didn't dive this morning but it looked good, i would have never made it to work if i had gone diving.
yesterday was really good though but the weather is supposed to be rubbish for the next week which is annoying.
