Looking for reliable SD buddys to night dive for bugs... (or day) Preferrably La Jolla, unless you have a boat...

SCUBA or FREEDIVE... To be honest I can only hold my breath for 30 secs, so I prefer SCUBA for bugs... But open for both...

Qualifications: Advanced Dive CERT, been on several night dives, I understand, night diving for bugs is almost a solo enterprise... we will just be on the same dive site during the same time... but it makes me feel at ease, when other divers are in the water, and you are looking around by yourself. No, I WILL NOT shine my light at a bug you are gonna pounce, or a crevice you are looking in.. I hate that...

If you have a boat, even better, I'll pay 1/2 expenses...

send me an email sdholymackerel@gmail.com

Weekdays: Monday through Friday 5PM to ~10PMish

Weekends: Open (except during Charger games)

We (wife and I) have both been diving for at least 12 years each. I was an instructor for PADI for 4 years. We both have loged thousands of dives each... localy. The wife gets over an hour sightseeing on a 72. I always have my head in the holes jacking creatures out of their hiding spots, 50 min on a 95. We have a Skagit Orca 24 SC and go to Catalina 3 times a month, at least. If you are able to dive safe (navigation, solo, night, etc.) and generally not need to be rescued. and have a shit load of local dives. We will provide the transportation to the island, food and beer. The boat does not run on thanks.

Send me a PM...

NAUI Open Water 1 certified for 18 years. Do primarily solo dives since I have not been able to find a reliable and consistent dive buddy. I have all my own gear and boat.

I do most of my diving during the lobster season so I am very comfortable in low and no visibility diving (A must if you are a solo diver)

I launch out of DAVIES ramp in Los Alamitos Bay most of the time. Dive buddy must be a self reliant diver with day and night diving experience with his / her own gear and willing to share the expenses. You keep what you catch and share what you want

Next time I head out, I will post here to see if anyone is interested in joining me.

Yup, Pacific Wilderness is a good place to get certify. It's right on Pacific and 17th street I think. they have their own pool on site and they offer quite a wide range of diving equiptment for sale and rental. I get all my air and tank diving needs there.
