During a northerly swell, big rollers curl and break over the Islestone Shad and it is marked as such on the Admiralty charts. The Elbow is another shad’ or bus’, a permanently-submerged area of shallow hilly ground and, as such, difficult to locate without a sounder. It covers an area of around 200 metres and is situated about 300 metres east of the south end of Megstone. The tidal.flow is strong so you could use the same technique as that for the Swedman. Look for it when the tide is running hard and this will reveal where the ground is, as the water boils over the top of the bus. Then throw in a heavy shot line with a large marker buoy and come back later; it is, though, possible to dive when the tide is in full flow on the flood, except during springs. When the visibility is good, the kelp fronds can easily be seen at low water. Depths are very similar to that of the Islestone. There is a lot of heavy kelp and a fair number of rock ledges and gullies but very few crevices or holes and the scenery is rather boring in general due to the flattish nature of the rock.
