Mahigeer,

If you haven't dove in years, please, please do some daytime refresher courses and a night warm-up dive before heading out on a night bug hunt. Every year too many folks are lost due to task overloading on a night bug hunt, and no bug is worth that.

I am an active diver, and even I get overwhelmed and call dives early when bug hunting--so much going on during these dives. Just this last weekend I bailed out with half a tank after getting wrapped up in kelp for a few minutes. Stopped that spiral before it could start.
