Hi all,
Quick introduction. I'm a old swimmer, love the sea and feel very organic in the water, but I've have been away from it for some years. Not really a experienced spearo but aspiring to be.
First. Spearfishing is sadly prohibited in my corner of the world which is the main reason as to why I have not come in contact with this part of freediving sooner. I have relatives in Greece and go there annually. This is where I came in contact with under water hunting for the first time. I love it and I can't wait to learn more and to go out on some fishing adventures. Naturally there are very few spearos in Sweden and furthermore, on the east coast, where I reside, we have murky brackish water = pretty bad vizability and not the ultimate setting.
Problems are to be solved and rules are to be broken and I hope I can go spearfishing also here on my home turf some day. :p
I'm about to update my setup with some proper gear (mask, fins and in time a wetsuit) and then we'll see about a spear.
I'm here on the forum to get inspired and to learn and maybe some day I'll be one of the inspirers!
All the best from forum newcomer SubSub....
