I had the same problem I was getting pain in my ears and my teeth. It was all cause by my sinuses. I use the Neilmed and take claritin an hour before I go out. It really helps.

Is the Cressi Corsica stiff, or is it one of those soft ones that can be folded up?
I would call it semi soft.

How have you liked the kayak now that you have used it for a while?
Is there anything you would change or would like to see that is not present?
I am asking cause it seem just the right size to be carried on my car and stored in my home.
Also where did you buy it? Gander Mountain?
It is great for the size. Couldn't ask for a better yak. I highly recommend the Fish/Dive Model(extra $100 gives you a hatch in the front and 4 rod holders.) with the extra hatch on the back (i think was around $60 installed). I you don't get the fish/dive at least get the 2 extra round hatches. Having all the storage options is great. I can fit all my gear in the yak except my gun which almost fits. I got it from OEX Dive and Kayak in Cali. They were great to work with. When asked about buying the extra hatch they asked if I wanted them to install it for free!! I thought that was great. Shipping was only $49 to any Forward Air terminal. Which worked great for me because its about a mile from my house. Is on 72nd Ave. and 36th St. right of the Palmetto. Its 150-170 to your door so i recommend Just getting sent to the hub and picking it up in Miami. Hope this helps let me know I you want to know more.

Meade St. Solo today. Very rough out 5-6 ft. Vis was less than 10 ft when I got out there but cleared up to 25-30 ft by the time I left. I got sea sick:barf:, but got one hog and had a good time. Besides the rough seas the weather was awesome.

Is anyone going out tomorrow morning and if so where?

The only disadvantage to it IMO is that the loading pad is pure torture.
The loading pad isn't as bad as it looks, but its not the best. I used my weight belt as a pad to pull the short band and my chest pad to pull the other.

I just switched snorkels this week and I was very happy I did. When I bought my first snorkel I didn't know anything about diving and the guy at the shop sold me a $65 :thumbdown2: Atomic SV2 snorkel. It sucked it was always leaking in water form the purge valve and the dry top was useless. I also didn't like the flexible part either.
I bought a Cressi Corsica for only $20. It is very simple and I like it much better. I don't understand why the make snorkels with all the shit on them.

I just bought this mask Thursday and used it Friday it is a great mask :thumbsup2:. It is much better than my Atomic mask I was using. Defiantly worth the money spent on it.

It's Dyneema. That's you're reel line. You should have mono as your shooting line attached to it and then to the spear.
So use mono on the spear and the wrap and then tie the dyneema to the mono at the reel?
-
What kind of shooting line are you using?
To tell you the truth I'm not sure what it's called:thinking:. It was already on the real when I got the gun. It' yellow.

Nice report hau. jbrewer, how did you lose the spear?
My line came untied I'm not sure how :confused2:. I was really mad :frustrated1: and was getting ready to tell Hau I was going home because I lost my spear. Then I found him and he had it in his hand. :notworthy3:

I should be back in the water this weekend. Its been five weeks of waiting.

How about the new Riffe suits?, They say there´s no need to lubrify them
They say you don't need to, but I just bought one last month and I found it still needs to be lubed up. I haven't even tried it with out. I don't want to take a chance on taring it.

Looks good what are you going to do for the top, and is there room for one on the other side too.
