Re: Trophy Abalone Diving by Eric Anderson and Matt Mattison

I think that people who express their opinion that someone should be banned, should themselves be banned...except for me, of course.

Re: Trophy Abalone Diving by Eric Anderson and Matt Mattison

Great article. Lots of good info.

Perhaps not enough emphasis on what I consider to be the three most important tips on finding trophy abs:

1. Location
2. Location
3. Location

Re: 5/8/13 Sonoma photo-op

Re: 2 foot swell at Mendo tomorrow

Same goes for the Sonoma coast, so I'll be taking a vacation day this Wednesday.

Can't let work interfere with these conditions.

Re: Multipurpose dive tool

There was no audio. The video just demonstrates how the spring retracts the sliding handle/hammer.

Too often I've longed for a jack hammer when tackling rock scallops. That would be impractical...

Re: Multipurpose dive tool

The spring keeps the chisel tip on the glue joint between the scallop and the rock wall while the weighted sliding handle hammers away.

Multipurpose dive tool

Designed and built for chipping rock scallops off, it'll double as an ab iron, and triple as an anchor for my dive board. Untested so far 'cause the ocean's not playing nice up here on the North...

Re: Sonoma vis 40 ft.

I may be wrong, but they looked more like little tiny fish, not little tiny crustaceans.

Maybe a marine biologist type could chime in...

Sonoma vis 40 ft.

Re: Abalone tag question

You fill out the tag once you get to shore, at the water's edge.

Sounds like you're getting religious on us, Nelson.

Whatever you call it, it sure seems to be working. Nice ling...a lot of nourishment there.

Re: fort ross store tournament is on!!!!!!!!

I heard from a reliable source that entry into this event qualifies you for a healthy discount on the boat/kayak/board launch at Timber Cove.

Can anyone verify this?

Re: Ab Dive from the Safety of Your Bedroom

It's halfway between Timber Cove and Sonoma's Stillwater, overlooking Cemetery Reef.

Always wondered how they work their septic system.

Especially nice fish, and a lot of good eating.
