Ha.. Well after meeting up with Gloworm and dropping in Newtons I meet up with him about 250m relative NE of the Nothe fort in about 9-10m of water over nice sand. I tell him about me dropping down onto a chunk of metal that I had never seen before and looking at what I thought was a greyish pipe about 25cm across.. Till it moved and looked at me.. Feck me that's the biggest conger I have ever seen, must have been bigger than me, including my fins!
I Stopped putting my head in holes for a few dives after that..
Anyway Gloworm is not a happy bunny, his fin blade has detached from the foot pocket on one side and he's also not happy that in this lovely sand he has seen nothing apart from a flounder ( On his float )..
A good 10 seconds after talking to GW I drop down straight onto a nice shelly thing, I am not in the mood for him so just tap him on his shell and wish him luck, I swim on another 10-15m along the bottom.
There is a lovely 5lb plaice sitting proud on the sand! Ahah.. I point the gun and like a tw@t... Miss it.. Its only the size of a bin lid..Don't ask. :head
The fish was still sitting there trying its hardest just to be hole in the water, I slowly pull my spear out of the sand in front of the fish, give it a very easy shake to clean off the sand, Im thinking that this fish is going to just blast away any second but it just sits there and looks at me... I try and keep it all calm and slowly grip the spear and drive it into the fish just behind its gills!! It goes nuts but then kind of gives up.
I surface grining like a cat and can just hear Gloworm questioning my lineage!
Good dive.
