My First Night Dive

By Alexander Halliwell

Yesterday evening was the first ever time that I went scuba diving at Stoney
Cove at night time, let me tell you that I enjoyed every second of that
dive.
My diving buddy was Marg and I am sure that if you asked her about the dive,
she will agree with me that we had the best diver ever.

We saw numerous pike from small to large, about a dozen if not more than
that. We also saw hundreds of crayfish including some that had decided to
climb up the weeds looking as if they were about to bungee jump. The more
usual fish perch and roach were also around, there were tiny perch as well
as big fat ones. But the real stars of the Dive were the PIKE! Including the
one that swam straight towards us.

New Site Launched

Our new website has just been launched, hope you like it. If you have any issues or spot any errors please let me know.

Kind Regards
