Immigrating here from there

Hi Guys,

This is Dustan Baker, AKA dustyyoungblood.
I was referred here by many of you, who share my frustration with some other forum.

I live in Orange County, making my home hunting grounds the small area still open around the MLPA closure in Laguna. I have been spearfishing since 2007, after "snorkeling" since I was a teenager. I learn something new every time I dive, and it is such a challenging sport that I take great pride in each and every catch.

I am an Industrial Designer by trade, and run my own design consultancy in Huntington Beach. Baker Design Studio

I do some artwork. Some of you might have seen the float I painted for Austin. Dusty Youngblood » Blog Archive » Custom Spearfishing Float

I am also a partner in Sturgill Spearfishing, and some of you guys have some of our gear. It has been an absolute joy to team up with the Sturgill family and hear all the incredible stories about the late Charlie Sturgill.

Nice to be here, happy diving-DB

Don,

Ken Hall and Matt Hall with some great support from Monica Also. My brother-in-law , "Pugz" on here is also a partner, and he has been doing most of the difficult work, like pulling and tying the float-lines.

Here is the last gun we just built: 44" speargun | Facebook

I believe that I saw your Charlie Halibut gun at the San Diego Legends show..... Right?
I remember seeing that, and one that Monica has with the 6 prong on it, and thinking we should make some replicas, because they are just perfect. Nobody makes one like that all rigged up perfect.

I am sure we will discuss more of this.
