    Great fish. I shot one a while back that spooled my RA reel.
    Fast and strong but very soft flesh...

    Well said about respect. That is the key ingredient in a successfully forum.


    Regarding fresh fish vs market fish. Nothing beats fresh.


    Regarding PHs . Anyone that scuba dives deep, knows the implications of not being able to ascend when that time comes. That is second to none, the main reason why divers die. A large fish will drag you down, rip you up or cause you to not ascend on time. That can be bad and end even worse. A lot of these guys are also full time or part time commercial takers. Time is money. Put the fish to sleep and move on to the next one. Very efficient.


    I am curious to hear opinions on line fishing. Archery versus bullets. Clubs versus archery. Slingshots versus clubs. Walking versus biking. Bikes versus unicycles. Cars versus levitation. Hamburgers versus hot dogs. Dogs versus cats. Cats versus pigs. Pigs versus cows. :D


    If a scuba diver is cheating, a scuba power header is double cheating. We should all put away the reels and guns and give fish a fair chance by grabbing em by the tail. If that don't work, I suggest hypnosis!

    In order for it to be a "sport", there needs to be an athlete, otherwise it's just "specialized" fishing.


    What I find funny, is that when someone posts a report about catching fish with a rod and reel, there are no conflicts.


    Wasn't Spearboard created by tankers?


    Tanks allow you to fill the fridge. Otherwise most would go home with nothing. To me, no different than rod and reel. No expertise or athletic ability needed. I have seen guys dive loaded on oxys and cigarrettes and go down to 100 feet and kill fish.


    Here in FL, I have been mostly tank diving because of the damage I have done to my lungs. It allows me to catch fish. I never owned a power head, but I think they are pretty cool. Combine my love for firearms with diving, explosions and big fish! LOL


    Everyone is entitled to their opinion and fingers that one points at others, can be pointed back at you. I don't care about the issue myself, so long as its legal. What I don't get is why the mgmt allows these arguments to go on and people to insult each other.


    If he values free speech so much(Grogan), then why not let stand comments and threads about how he coerced and strong arms his sponsors and rips off people that do work for him.


    I understand that this is a free diving board and opinions here are strong about what is correct and what is not when it comes to harvesting fish. Instead of complaining about it, why not do something about it? When was the last time anyone here started a petition or called your state rep to change laws regarding scuba? Way more productive...

    I submit the following:


    Florida Sportsman and Bloody Decks.


    Way more diverse than SB. Bloody Decks is a clusterfuk. Florida Sportsman on the other hand is moderated a bit better. Both are more diverse than SB. It's all in how the tone is set. People say things that they know they can get away with on the net.


    What is more unsporting than a guy hauling fish from the depths with a reel while drinking?


    BTW, we should invite them here. Lots of good free divers there. Anyone with an account there should be sending invitations!


    I think that the grog wants to eventually make the site profitable and be crowned the Spearo Queen of the World!

    Yeah, but once you create a board where all types of diving is allowed, why let people post negative shit?


    This is a free dive board. It's like letting a guy that pole spears, come on a report by a rail gunner and put em down . Why not delete the post and warn the offender?
