Dives 11/20-11/25

I do not have too many comments. My elbow hurts so I will not be typing much. No diving for a couple of weeks at least so this will be my last update for awhile. I took a week off from work so I went out almost every day. The water is getting colder so most days I am only doing one dive. I would appreciate ID help with the tooth on the 11/23 photo.

11/23

Best dive of the week. I came up with two really nice teeth both over 5"!!!!

11/22/09 Another One dive day. Sometimes it seems like I do better if I am only doing one dive. I dig harder and concentrate on what I am doing rather than think about all I have waiting for me when I get back late.

awesome finds as always bro. that mystery tooth looks like a whale tooth core mabye?

Thanks,

Thanks You could be correct. It is just a lot shorter and I do not find many this sharp. More than likely it is what this is.

No, we used to ice dive in PA. Diving here in the winter is nothing. I just do one dive per day in a drysuit but I will go all winter. The vis is great in the winter. I sometimes get one foot.

Perhaps a few pictures of the tooth alone and dryed may help. I am interested in whether the bottom of the tooth is rounded out with an indent leading up into the tooth.

Great finds though!!! :wub:

The amount you get is unbelievable. You need to share with me where you got that shark tooth radar of yours. ;)

Great finds, as always. Every time I see one of your topics I wonder to myself if this is the topic you post that 7 incher in. I think you have a better chance than anyone else around to find one.

I will get some photos next week. I flew to PA today to visit my family for the rest of the weekend.

My dream is to find the 7 in tooth. The 6.94 in tooth is as close as I have come.Hopefully someday.

Tell Santa you've been a very good boy, and you want a tooth stretcher. Better yet, just find a couple of those mythical monsters on your own!

Do you have a photo of the 6.94" meg? Maybe you have it on your web site & I just missed it?

No worries :) if it does have a socket, it may be a different type of whale :)

To sweet mega, I love seeing what you find!
