Would rather see the Landlord than one of those pesky critters. They don't give up...hickey monsters I calls 'em! I had one 2 footer pester me for half a dive. NO amount of swatting or kicking would get that monster away from anting to hitch a free ride. Grrr...

Thanks for helping out the divers - 2 merit badge points for you. Amazing how some people ignore those with equipment or bouyancy issues. Remember one really nice diver who, after we surfaced, was wondering why all of us were hanging around the anchor rope for 3 minutes at 15 feet (so she hung with us). She was certified before the advent of safety stops, so we told her about them.
