Arrrrrgh and I was stuck eating my own weight in curry!! Well done Clive another monster plaice from the depths.....

Thursday night anyone? :)
 
Good company as always and cracking coffee, Reg. All in all a 'Brill' dive tonight. First time I've caught one - what a great way to get my first proper night dive under my belt...

Bio-luminescence pinging off my mask, stars bright as anything, it was grt lush!

Had a flounder too which saw its way quite nicely into the pan this evening.

Got a lot of torch envy though. Dear Santa...

Great stuff men, Clive that is a good plaice!!!
Nice one Ricky, any picts of the Brill?
Almostasquid you’re getting far to relaxed with all this bio-luminescent stuff bring back the killer almostashark.
Hope to see you on the weekend if you’re about?:)
 
That's it under the last post mate. I admit it looks a bit flounderish there but...;) Clive's plaice was an absolute stonker - massive fish. I've definitely got the night dive bug!

Oh right, sorry!:)
You about on a Sunday before Christmas?
Talking of Christmas are we all going to have a Mince Pie dive this year?
And if so on which Sunday are we all free? As there’s not to many weekends left.
 
I need some scallops for Christmas day - so I'm up for a mince pie dive....let me know when!
 
I'm sure the Bristol Massif with be up for a session - let us know what type of hot/spicy Tidbits we need to supply... We'll bring a car to burn for the marshmallows

I like the idea of an LED lamp - but I have a UK C4 - anyone know if it is possible to convert between hologen and LED?
 
Sorry for the double post peeps but how about Sunday 21st December for the mince pie dive?:)
 
I can't do Sunday 21st - only Saturday 20th.....but if I'm the only one that can't make the Sunday go ahead without me....I'll just go Saturday anyway, and I may just leave you chaps some fish/scallops ;)

I looked into it James. Even considered building one from scratch just for fun. In the end though £89 for the LED (3x3watt) Princeton Tec shockwave (C8) or same price for the LED (3x3watt) Princeton Tec Miniwave (C4) meant I just went and bought one. It's quite nice to have your old torch as back up as well, not neccessarily to take with you but maybe to have in the car just in case. After all what price can you put on the fun of night diving plus any catch you take home to scoff as well.

Clive I’d love to be able to dive on any Saturday but its one of the busiest days at work and I’ll not be able to take a Saturday off this close to Christmas.:head
Is there any Sunday that you’d be able to do? even an early afternoon dive would suit me, at least I wouldn’t have to get out of bed so bloody early to get down there.:):)
