Any divers from California on /out/? This isn't my home board (usually a /fit/ guy) but I'm an Australian about to move to LA from Sydney area. I love to dive for abalone, lobsters and go spearfishing and I'm just wondering what spots are good close to LA. Mostly interested in getting abalone.

Also, general diving thread?

We are at a lake house at Lake Lanier and we were making a campfire at a fire pit at a house we rented. While we were making the fire, and making smores, a nigger comes to us and tells us that the "land belongs to the water" and that he can call the cops on us and give a 750$ fine and was being a super sperg. Can he do that if we are making a fire in a firepit recreationally? please help. We are at Lake Lanier.

I saw about a thousand or more Destroying Angels and Fly Agaric at a local park on one of its "longest" trails. I wish I had a camera at the time, but I was between cameras then. They were spread all along the woodland path, but only up near the ridge lines and tops of the hills in the deeply wooded areas.

So I decided I was gonna do some night catfishing this evening since I have tomorrow off. I was fishing off the dock at my local marina in my usual spot, with my lines cast out to the side so that the dock was still accessible to boats that wanted to tie-up and refuel and whatnot.

This guy in his expensive ass bass boat just cruises up about 5 feet in front of me and runs over both of my lines and yanks one of my rods in the lake.

How do you deal with this kind of situation? I lost about $60 worth of gear because of it. I was so pissed, all I could do was yell, "Thanks asshole." and pack my shit and leave.

How can you be angry that a guy with a boat is using the marina?
He pays , you dont.
When you see a boat coming get your shit out of his way.

>>1093757

I did pay. You have to pay $5 to fish off the dock. It's a private marina.

I'm looking for a year round tent for moto-camping. I've camped out before on cheap tents, but I'm unfamiliar with tent brands and models.
Any suggestion of models and/or brands that would fit 2 people (mainly it will only be me sleeping there and my gear) and easy to build and disassemble as I will be doing that everyday.

Moto specific really isn't anything special, unless you have pole length requirements to fit inside of a hard pannier. I'd go for something in the same style as the REI Half Dome 2 Plus. Proven design, easy to set up, available from multiple companies. I use a one person tent and store all of my stuff on the bike.

if "year-round" means welsh winters and alpine summers, any 2/3man 3 pole tunnel with a big porch will suit. two of you can sit on low stools and still have room to cook.

alternatively a slumit pitches and packs up almost as fast as an umbrella (which is a godsend if tent-packing annoys the shit out of you) but it's less spacious than a tunnel. the porch is enough to keep your boots and lids in the dry, but you can't live in that space, so you'll be bringing wet muddy gear, food and drink into the same space as your sleep kit, and that's not smart.

don't bother with canvas tents unless you're a sidecar, they're dependable and long-lasting but they're immensely heavy when packed up wet.

Rain season is coming, and I wondered if it is possible hiking in the fields (there are open truck trails between the fields) while it is raining hard. Obviously I am planning to use boots and a raincoat, and not walk in areas known for flash floods. What I am worried about is getting stuck in the mud or getting injured. There is also the fear of gradually ruining my ankles from all the twists and unnatural motions my feet will have to do in the mud.
Any of you have experience? I know this idea sounds autistic but nature must look great when it is raining.

Wear some gaiters to keep mud out of your boots. If it's not that cold and ticks aren't a problem where you live them I would actually suggest quick drying shorts instead of pants.

You aren't going to get eaten by mud my dude.
>>
>people are afraid of getting stuck in the mud while "hiking" on a path between fields in 2017
Holy fuck have you ever been off the pavement? What do you think your ancestors did when it rained? Wait a day for the mud to dry so they didn't hurt their ankles?
>>
>>1093323
>>1093337
I think you missed the part where I say I want to hike WHILE IT IS RAINING HARD. Mud gets very slippery during a rain so I wanted to ask if anyone has any experience in it.
Also I'm pretty sure our ancestors, like the vast majority of mammals, wouldn't walk around in an open field during a heavy rain. If you ever got out of your house you would see how mammals take shelter from the rain or walk around in the forest at best. I would imagine ancient humans behaved the same.

From now on I'll keep three days of food, water, and clothes in my car at all times. Also going to keep toiletries and some sort of sleeping system with a bag to carry it all in if I have to go on foot. Basically everything I'll need to set up a camp and await FEMA to drop off supplies.

Be prepared anons. The big one is coming for you.

In a waterproof container until needed, no less. Most supplies don't do much good if they're soaked in toxic water. 3 days is a bit hopeful, it's best to allow 5 - 7 days of survival in the event of devastated infrastructure/incompetence which could result in delayed aid to your particular area. Also, I suggest a good sized tarp so you can make a dry spot to sleep. As for clothes, the current outfit and two spare outfits (4 pair wool socks, and 4 pair underwear) would be my advice.

One thing I forgot about was the damned mosquitos. Spray repellent, citronella candles, and head nets sold out everywhere.

You've probably gotten a lot of these lately but what should I know in order to survive in the very small chance things do go horribly wrong on the 23rd?
For context I live in the country and have camping experience. My biggest concern is hunting, which I have little experience in.

Not sure if this is the right board, but /an/ doesn't seem to do anything related to nature and /sci/ is worthless.

Found these two rocks in a clay bed while clearing flood debris out of my creek today and was hoping someone could tell me what they are. I'm pretty sure the brass colored one is pyrite, but the green one has me stumped.

Also general found while out thread.

Just a heads up. Lived in Florida for a decade. It will still be mid 80s and humid at night. I would just recommend not trying to camp in Florida. Too many snakes, lizards, spiders and crocs. Day trails are okay though
>>
You will die sweating and miserable.

Buy the biggest jar of baby powder you can own. Put it in your ass, and on your balls. ALWAYS. One hand sipping water, one hand dusting your balls.

If something has shade, it will have something horrible under it with you. Take a fly swatter. And enough deet to drown in. AND a BIG HAT.
>>
Floridian here

What the above 2 said is mostly correct.

mornings and evenings is when the bugs get you so during these times of day wear long sleeves / pants with a bugnet. During mid day it gets hot enough the bugs vaporize in direct sun so they go away.

EVERYTHING in florida is the same shit. its palmetto plants / scrub forest or swamp. Basically if the google map pic shows green, expect it ti be palm plants as dense as your asshair. Pick whatever place you wish, Trip advirsor or other site, it will be the same shit.

FYI Florida is NOT the place for bushwhacking as you can get killed super easy. Stick to normie crushed shell trails with running water toilets and electrical grid access or get raped by boars, gators, snakes, spiders, skeeters, or locals playing banjo.

sorry if florida isnt what you expected. its basically beach and disney or nothing.

Anybody do some spearfishing?

I'm suddenly interested in pole spearing. I'm taking a PADI SCUBA certification course soon and if I'm comfortable with that I might move onto unassisted diving.

Anyone have good SCUBA or spearfishing stories?
