My 1103 Logged Dive; East Fish Camp, I’ve been here many times over the past 36 years. We entered the Night Dive at 11:37PM, a current is running off the point back through the cove. I’m looking for the ledge I’ve been up too many times that is loaded with Bugs. No luck the current is very strong at the point, I’m caught in the current, thinking DAMM I’m going to be rescued by my own boat. I dive to the bottom and work my way into the shallows as much as I could with the swell and waves causing a little stress. I locate a few Bugs back in their holes. I make an attempt at a couple with no success. I work my way along the rocks and find the Strobe’s flashing off the Buganeer. I check and set the hook we will spend the night here.
