Rigs around the Nipple????

tjkelly17 · 05-27-2008, 01:03 AM

Are there any rigs around the nipple area or is it just naturall bottom spots and reefs? Also, what is the 131 or 151 hole?

Some people will be able to answer this in much greater detail but a short answer is NO there are no rigs remotely close to the Nipple. The Nipple is close to the 131 hole, the name just means its a spot in the edge of the Desoto Canyon where the bottom drops to 131 fathoms. Alot of rips and pushes and weedlines form around these areas.
