The Good old days
I have posted some cool diver newspaper pix from the good old days of diving in North and South California. Times have changed and some of it good such as protecting large sea bass. Enjoy. Jeff

Here's one early 70s key west. Stock island lobster's dock. No regulations.

Re: The Good old days
Brings back some great memories of diving with, and against, some of the top guns from the old school...Bob Stanbery, Bob Donnell, Lionell Coates, Schnippershoff, et al....

Re: The Good old days
Didn't get to meet many locals my diving was interrupted by 20 years in Navy as a Diver for 15 years. Dove every chance I got all over Europe and East coast overseas. Nothing like the fish in the USA.

Re: The Good old days
Is this the gun that did the "damage"?

Re: The Good old days
The "damage" that I was referring to is the pile of halibut or flounder in the photo with the gun. I figured that more artillery was required for the whoppers on the wharf or dock.
