North Coast Abalone and Scallops

I filmed my dive buddy Kirby take a
10" abalone and scallops while diving with his girlfriend on the North Coast.

Is this humboldt county?

@CondemnedPatriot

I can't say where, but it is normally very dirty if that helps you get an idea.

Thanks for watching.

Peace.

hmmm....barely 7 inches, illegal! $ 1,450.00 fine plus equipment confiscate.

@norcallovenature Ha! Good one!

That's a 10" gague!

Peace.

I try an gift most of my shells to local indigenous people who carve traditional adornments for dance regalia. Kirby cleans up the big ones really well and we both carve jewlry, and fishooks and such from some as well.

This particular one was only about 15ft deep. Unusual in all respects as it was out in the open. Look deep in caves and cracks that look like they couldn't even house an ab. Dive a lot, look a lot, you'll find one if you're persistant. However these are the oldies so try not to take too many of em. Peace.

@norcallovenature What the fuck you moron...the guage is a 10 inch guage. How the fuck do you conclude an Ab that measures up in a 10 guage is 7?

@kevseadog Good! that's pretty big abalone , kind of hard to find now these days.

I really enjoyed this vid. What a treat to find those scallops, not mention your 10. Good job.
