Territory underwater

Territory underwater was a Los Angeles based TV show about Scuba Diving that my father and I watched. I was inspired to get my Junior Scuba license and my father had to go with me to get certified as a scuba diver too then. It only cost 25 dollars at the time and I had earned enough working for my father as an electrician summers to pay for both our licenses which including a trip to Catalina island and a boat dive to 50 feet deep which I also did.

When we got to Catalina my father got sea sick from the boat rocking in the waves and couldn't scuba dive. So, I partnered up with another older diver and we went down and looked for lobsters at 50 feet deep. I remember looking up in the very clear waters there at the boat which looked like it was sitting on top of a telephone pole so high above me it was slowly rocking in the waves at likely Emerald Cove on Catalina Island off of Los Angeles, California. I saw my first lobsters underwater that my partner gathered that are orange as well as the Moray eel that chased him because the eel wanted to eat the lobsters or bite the man that stole them from the eel.

A Moray eel is about 5 to 6 feet long and if it bites your arm or leg it's jaw breaks and you cannot get them off your arm or leg. So, you don't want to get bitten by a moray eel underwater. So, that was the scariest experience of the day for me in coming within a few feet of an angry moray eel 50 feet underwater in an underwater cave at age 12 or 14 then.
