My friend saw this guy while fishing in September. At the time we wondered why someone would go snorkel the Duwamish. [blink]

I saw him down there a couple of times. That guy must have balls of steel to be swimming in there among the huge stellar sea lions.

The next headline will read, "Man infected with rare and unidentified facial fungus sues City for negligence."

Exactly what I was thinking! When I took scuba lessons 30 years ago the entire class revolted when they planned a dive in front of Salty's. We ended going for a dip off of Fort Casey instead. The Edmonds Park is as clos as I've every come to swimming in Elliot Bay and I'd like to keep it that way.

Wish I saw him, I would have asked him to retrieve some of my gear!
There's a fine line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot.
