Default L.B. Aquarium - easy limits

Weekly Fishing Column: Aquarium will allow divers in June



What angler would not want to see what happens to his bait underwater?
Does the fish nibble at it? Does the fish swallow it whole? When do I set the hook?
The Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach on June 1 will begin allowing members of the public - if they're certified scuba divers - to immerse themselves into its 350,000-gallon Tropical Reef Habitat exhibit, which contains thousands of colorful fish, corals, sea turtles and, OK, a small number of very well-fed sharks.
The 2-hour adventure costs $299 for non-members, or $279 for members, and includes a behind-the-scenes tour of the volunteer dive program, use of an underwater camera and take-home memory card, and a souvenir towel.
Participants must be at least 15 and make reservations at least 24 hours in advance by calling 562-590-3100, ext. 0. Equipment will be provided if necessary. The capacity is four divers per day and the program runs daily from 3-5:30p.m.

Great idea, I wish I was a certified scuba diver.
At first I thought I could fish in the tank for $300 ...OH WELL
They must be hurting for money to take on the liability.

I checked out the LB aquarium this past weekend. Saw plenty of 10 pound Calicos and 45lb+ White Seabass. The place is doable in a couple of hours. Discount coupons are available on line.
