Description: Don't ask me to be an idiot
I went diving today, my first day of the year. Hid from the wind on my first dive, then the wind calmed down and I wound up going in circles. Low production. Had lunch, moved to another spot and jumped in, much better shells here, did pretty good in a short while. Helped make up for a slow start. Still a light wind, low current, and it’s hard to keep yourself where you know you are at when it’s like that.
Anyway, came up from my second dive after getting 2 pretty good sacks. As I got in the boat I saw an ENORMOUS sea capable boat motoring upriver. I knew I HAD to get a pic of this thing. I had 2 sacks in the water still, had to get them in the boat, one of the pics you can see one of my floats, which has a bag of shell tied to it.
So, I’m supposed to grade my shells and dump the culls back where I find them. But I HAD to get those bags in the boat and chase that thing down for some closer pics. It was moving in the direction I had to go to get to my truck anyway, so I pulled the bags and got moving. It was moving at a pretty good clip, it had gone a fair distance by the time I was ready to chase it down. That ship I figured it every bit of 300′ long, 90′ wide and probably 50′ from the waterline to the bridge. It’s huge.
