Thank you to all of you who have me such good information about putting together our trip to Fiji. I think I probably have a pretty good handle on collecting cones safely. I hope we find some dead cones for 2 reasons: won't have to worry about dying when picking them up and also in 13 years of shelling, we've never taken a live shell and so we're going through internal struggles about even the possibility of doing that. However, in the case that we do, many of you have mentioned snorkel shelling at night and I need your advice on how to do that since I've never done that before either! Do you use underwater flashlights or diving headlamps? What other equipment do you need? Do you go at low tide so you can wade? Or do you just snorkel as usual? Thank you in advance for any advice you have.
