You’re a swamp diver if you’ve ever dove...

You know you’re a dedicated swamp diver when you’ve dove.. (fill in with the name of the darkest, dirtiest, smellies or overall nastiest place you’ve dove and say why)


I would say that it would be our hole dug out at the back of the property. You couldn’t see what was in there, it was dark and 2 weeks later, we found an ugly snake swimming at the top. YIKES.

We also went diving at our friends super clear, amazingly beautiful pond but there was a smell. (sulfur?) ICK!

Oh I bet that snake was very happy that you provided water for it.

Did some volunteer work for D.A.R.E. on a Halloween haunted forest. We
put on our gear and rose up out of the swamp with creature from the
black lagoon masks on. I can still smell the swamp smell in my wetsuit
from time to time.LOL

Dove along the sides of the Comal River in Texas during the Trash Fest one year. Viz was pretty bad due to all the divers stirring it up. Plus the sides of the river, in some parts, are full of vegetation and muck on the bottom, making it difficult to see. Zero viz at times, yet we managed to pull up chunks of concrete with rebar. We used only our hands to feel around.
