The 120 started with about 8 pounds more air than you weighted for, minus whatever air you used to collect the fish. If you weighted for an empty 40cf pony, that would be another 3 pounds or so. The weight was part of of your weighting system. > About 5 hogs, 15 inches each, 2 groupers, 28 inches or so each, and 6 > porgies. I'll guess the hogs about two pounds negative each, the groupers about four pounds negative, and the porgies about a pound negative for a total of about 24 pounds. > My BC had failed, and I swam all that to the surface, in a current, from > about 50 ft, and did safety stops, 3 at 20 2 at 10. > Does that count in place of a 45 lb dumbbell? Not even close. I'm guessing around 26 pounds, which is probably on the high side. > BTW, what the hell are you doing with dumbbells in the ocean? I find them up this way all the time. They usually weigh a lot more than 45 pounds, though.
