Night and Solo diving besides Ginnie?

[jj1987]

Convict, JB, twin, hitw, rock bluff, mearson, cow, kitty/trap, Telford, luraville sink, eagles nest, gator sink, Indian (no solo), church, Morgan (ask nicely?), Wilson (local landowners are friendly), vortex, cathedral, ginnie

Seems to be options, but many don't often have amazing vis.

Thanks, James!

Forrest, you need to shine the light while above water and look for the eye shine!

Forrest has learned like the locals they think our lights are bright and then want to fight!
Gators do not like bright lights they submerge I would rather have them thinking I am another gator with a scooter!

We were on the Peace River enjoying a clear evening, watching bats and gar in the river when I shined the area we load and unload canoes.
There was a thumb sized eye that slowly faded.
I remarked that that was a nice gator not your typical 6' or less.
Then came the reply we haven't seen any gators here! I smiled.

In a few weeks they sent me the photo's nice 8+ named him Scampie!
He or she is the guardian of the launch.
So far that is the FFG has been down there gunning for it several times.

You left off Numero Uno,which as I have been told,night time is the ideal time

You could add Telford to the list. I have done it at night, using a scooter to get to the run from the boat ramp.

LOL, that was fun until I realized I couldn't pick out the boat ramp in the dark! Next time, I'll hang a glow stick or something so I can find the way home.

Then there is the question about diving solo at night with a reasonable expectation of exiting and having your car there with all the windows intact...

Little River, circa 2000, come out to find limestone boulders in the front seat of my truck. Both side windows smashed, everything stolen including dry / warm clothes. Resulted in making a call to the police at a payphone in Brandford, at 1:30am, freezing in my boxers.

Still wouldnt trade those days for the world.

I used to dive JB All the time at night and solo. Never had a problem with access or my belongings being disturbed while diving. They even have showers to clean up for the ride home.
