Freshwater diving can be very rewarding. Dutch springs is amazing. Im not sure if you have ever dove there but there are some really cool things there. Local rivers and lakes allow us access to more diving than having to drive to the shore to jump on a charter boat, if one can get signed up in the first place. The private boats seem nice but I cant seem to get on any...its like some sort of Boys club network that is impenetratable. It seems to me that the best and probably the most notable diver on this message board is a mostly freshwater diver. He hits caves and Mine's with great frequency. Im not sure if you saw the amazing video's he posted of a monte carlo with a safe in it or alift bag hopeslessly stuck to a branch - How exciting was that? All of that excitement/drama/ etc was all in the fresh. Just think how amazing it will be when they find a side tunnel! Its hard to make negative comments about freshwater diving when we have guys like him on this board. Actually - the proof is in the pudding. How many corporate sponsors do you have? He's got like 3 or 4 at this point...I think I saw then in his posts and video's.
Im not sure about Poaching....but the "fresh" is more fun than some people think.
Later when I have time I will tell you about how I once used Duct tape and aquaseal to repair a rip in a sac that was holding a horn. But right now, Im a little busy scouting a pond.The story is a great one because if I didnt repair the sac....and my buddy lost this horn.......it could have ended bad but I will get into that later.
