Talking Lost Discs In Pond

Hi, my name is Chase and I frequent the nasty little pond out at Bear Branch. You may have seen me out there selling discs before or swimming in extremely cold conditions.

I find many with names on them so let me know what you are missing. It gets hard to contact everyone who's disc I have found so this should make it a bit easier.

I will try to post as often as possible the discs I have found.
(Note: I am not the only person who gets in the water. There are three main guys who get in, including myself, and the occasional group of "bros" excited to find numerous dx and champ valks and beasts.)

I am there most of the week and have a large number of unclaimed discs w/o names that are up for sale or trade.

Consistently since the Hurricane. I occasionally find stuff buried really deep in the mud around the edge of #12 that seems as if it had been there for years.
Just for kicks, what did you lose?

I don't remember anymore (probably a Pro Wraith). They have long since been replaced. I think it was either there or Spring Valley though that taught me to write my name on my discs.

I think the dischunter is an under-appreciated breed, doing the task that the disc owner usually won't even do for their own property, and getting all that plastic out of the waters. The next time you see these guys disc diving, dont give them a hard time and start spouting off all your moral BS, just thank them for once.

You ever heard of a little course called the LINKS at Quail Valley?

Thanks. I will say that I'm the only honest one out there at bear branch. The other two guys don't really return stuff, will lie to you, and go in for your disc once they see that you are out of view.

Right after the Hurricane I lost my SS Wizard in by the dock. I've asked one of the divers if he ever found it but he said no... It might still be under there. Anyway, I was just curious if anyone ever found it, it didn't have any info on it or anything.
