Ok its an odd question - TheGuppy - 11-13-2009
So the other thread about the clicking sound gave me the courage to ask!
I have noticed that when I dive I can hear a faint sizzling sound. Sounds like very faint bacon frying (too bad it doesnt have the wonderful smell too).
I am assuming that because I can hear it in both fresh and saltwater it something to do with the pater and pressure playing tricks on my eardrums??
And if it matters I have never had problems equalizing.
Am I crazy?

Do you have one of those regs designed to let a continuous stream of little bubbles out? I think Sherwood's do that. Perhaps you are hearing that?

Re: Ok its an odd question - TheGuppy - 11-13-2009

I've noticed clicking underwater as well. Much less so in freshwater. In saltwater I've found it to be really noisy because there is so much sea life which I suspect is making the noises.

If you are diving from a boat it could be the sonar your hearing.
