According to the BBC Eric Stroud, a chemist from the USA has been having success using rare earth coated magnets as a shark repellent and is testing the magnetic alloy on fishing hooks with some success. According to the BBC some tests using these hooks are showing a sixty to seventy percent drop in the (accidental) shark catch by comercial fishermen. heres a link to the article. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-17792624

First time I got to go on an international snorkel/dive trip was to Belize in 1981. I was fifteen and we drove down in a Datsun Pickup full of dive gear, and a portable compressor, back then it was hard to find a place to fill your scuba tanks, years later I decided it was time to take a break from my Job and see Belize through a greybeards eyes, to say that San Pedro Belize has changed is an understatement, they even have a hyperbaric Facility. I will post here about snorkeling,traveling, and stuff that happens along the way. Thank You for visiting! Burnie Archives
