    Hola, just joined this site. I live on the island of Culebra off west shore of Puerto Rico and spend several days a week spearfishing, wearing out equipment, getting torn up in fire coral,missing a lot of fish I should have hit, breaking off a few lobster antenna, loosing gear in breaking surf, and just having a great time. Just turned 67 have a little trouble spotting pulpo with these old eyes-- so I take a lot of youngsters with me. I don't know if the benefit of their spotting an occasional octopus is worth all the bent shafts and dull points they produce on my equipment! But we creat a lot of great memories and good times.
    Dad bought me my 1st gun (spring loaded) at 15 and it's been a passion ever since.

    Bienvenido youngster! My 2nd or 3rd speargun was also a springun, owned 2 in the 50's. Great introduction - welcome.

    Welcome bro! I'm almost as young as you (48 now) and lived for 7 years in Puerto Rico.


    Great diving in Culebra! Enjoy! :thumbup:


    Lots of smal sharks though. They love to steal your catch those MoFo.... :nono::( <img src= " class="smiley" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x" height="23" width="23" loading="eager" data-tooltip="biggrin" aria-label="biggrin">
