  • this guy makes me sick

    Cam is THE BEASTMASTER, he takes what he wants from the ocean!!!!


    One of the nicest most humble people I know:thumbsup2:


    I consider myself a fairly decent diver, able to hunt fish to about 75 fsw, insane by most standards, untill I get on a boat with Cam, and hes bottoming out a 120 ft floatline, and stonning 14lbs mangroves with a polespear...Im content to caddy, ice fish down, and cheerlead, he NEVER dissapoints....


    My Bachelor party consisted of a spearing trip for a few buddies, The boat captain almost shit a brick when Cam pops up from the water 10 minutes after getting i,n with 4 muttons on his belt, the smallest one was about 18lbs. 10 minutes after that, we made him trade his gun for a camera, or the local fish might ALL die of fear...


    For Cam the word EPIC is a way of life.




    He even held off on shooting a 100+lbs goliath, that he certainly could have rolled over, because our cooler was full, we had no more ice, and we wouldn,t be able to care for it properly....



    A TRUE SPORTSMAN and ambassador to the Sport:cool2:



    We are fortunate to have him


    Thanks for the post

  • We need a North East Section:), Long Island Report

    Was looking for a place for this report;)
    We might need a new section..lol,


    Been traveling to NY for work for the last few years.


    I have never had the time or the weather to make it out to hunt something other than my usual band of suspects.



    Have always wanted to get me a Sea Bass, my chance finally came



    Contacted Gary From Extreme Spearfishing in Long Island, and in no time, we were set up for a cost share trip to Montauk..


    The Fish were a bit spooky, the viz was around 4 ft, water temp in mid 60s, air temp 86s, flat seas, little current.


    fish we in about 30 fsw


    We had to work to make it happen, but was worth it


    Gary put us on fish and all divers onboard accomplished a personal best..


    Great Day on the water.



    Oh yeah, almost forgot


    tried the new pursuit c90 and was blown away!!!!!
    Im a convert!!!!


    kicked myself in the ass for not picking up the suit...


    oh well live and learn:)

  • Speardiver carbon fins roll call

    Put a couple hours on mine a few days ago..
    Have dove mostly composite and plastic to this point.
    Was blown away :)


    Can't wait to put these through their paces! and take many more pics :cool2:
    They are like Cinderalla's glass slipper, don't want to be without them. They honestly, instantly changed the machanics of how I dive...

  • Hi, New Guy

    Hi Everybody my name is J.C, I Dive mostly Florida, and sometimes abroad.
    I mostly freedive and love all things aquatic. Have Been Diving For the better part of 10 years, not as much as id like, but i have been blessed by many great friends ad gifts by the Ocean. So i guess although recreational, it is somewhat of a lifestyle, getting up before dawn, and driving back tired and salty is what its all about for me.
    I have been known to dive with Gerald, Rolo, Emil, and a few others:cool2:


    Look forward to being part of this forum.
    Thanks

  • Great day in the Keys

    Hi All, Im new here:D


    But not to the sport,look forward to meeting some of you and learning from others:D


    I am responsible for the amount of pics taken;)


    And the repower of the comet, man that etec is sweet, im doing my part to cut carbon emissions, and the fuel tab is something to grin about.


    I love it when a plan comes together


    Thanks to Ben and Brian for Backup on the trip


    Shame some of the Monster Permit and Yellow Jacks Stayed just out of Range,


    I didn't even realize there was this board,
    been very inactive as of late,


    till i decided, I need a new pair of fins.,


    Looking forward to seeing the new offerings from pursuit




    I was just happy, with Rolo's help:) I Could put the guys on fish, and having a camera to document the events properly was something we haven"t done in awhile. One of the many pluses of modern photography, is the ability to shoot endlessly and only use the choice images.:cool2:
    Very happy how they all turned out


    Im somewhat of a photo enthusiats,


    We would have done a vid, but the battery was a bit low. next time



    I offer my services as an underwater photographer, advertising producer. Notice proper orientation of subject, use of light and composition..... Hint, Hint (Dan ) I Would consider offering my services to a forward thinking gear manufacturer, for product testing, Marketing , PR, and QC!!! lol


    Anyhow Till next time
