  • I hate you and was cursing your fail for the first 10 min of the dive
  • In all my dives into the ear I've never seen such a crappy job
  • If you put your line ANYWHERE other than where you ran it that would be an improvement
  • You need to spend more time learning/practicing line running skills
  • Next time close your eyes and toss the reel in any direction and tie off there, it will be better than your initial choice
I hope that this was some sort of spoof on not what to do, or a new student being allowed to screw up for learning purposes. I thought about cutting the line into pieces and leaving a note filled with obscenities but decided against it.

Ginnie was only about a .3 out of 10 on the lord of the flies scale. No drunks, beer cans, nudity, death metal or rap. Only the occasional horns and rafters. Almost quiet and peaceful...yea, it was weird.
See Mods, I am not the bitterest person on the forum, mdax is! lol

I saw Ginnie that way once also, it was in the middle of May when I was finishing my Cave CCR class. The only people there near the run were 2 dive teams. It was scary, I figured the drunks were hiding behind the trees waiting to rob us as soon as we got in the water. I saw a white cargo "rape" van and was scared for a second, but then I realized it was just the WKPP, lol.
