  • sdeisen little fish reports

    way cool video sir.
    Nate with ANOTHER nice bug grab :thumbup:


    Yep sdeisen, I agree about the Speardiver reel. It has been my favorite reel since it first became available.
    I love the folding crank and the solid build. I have yet to have ANY problem with the Speardiver reel.
    It is the ONLY reel I use. :fanwave:

  • Antigua spearfishing reports

    Dude george--nice fish and nice pictures. Thanks for sharing
    Glad that you are ok. I try to remind myself that NO FISH is worth dying for. This mental reminder has helped me to remain alive and without serious injury for many years. Be careful sir.

  • Hello from Dayton, OH???

    Hey Timinator;
    Some of us Buckeyes have been welcomed here in the past. (Thank you Dan). <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">
    I was born/raised on a farm in Ohio on the Ross / Pickaway county line way back before cell phones. :@
    Don't understand your movin to Dayton unless it was to skydive at GCSPC outside of Xenia. Thats what I did in 1970.:S There was a very exciting wreck dive in a rock quarry north of Jamestown. :rolleyes: or you could freedive the Ohio river. ( Sorry, couldn't resist).
    This is THE BEST FREEDIVE /SPEARFISHING forum in the world IMO. Many friendly, knowledgable spearos here. Our family grows every day. Hope you enjoy it here as much as I have all these years.
    Welcome

  • RIP Rick

    Don Paul--words cannot describe such a loss. I am sorry that your friend and our brother has passed.
    Our prayers and thoughts and condolences go out to those who knew Rick and his family.

  • Guam spearfishing reports

    As many here know, I am computer challenged so picture posting has been hard for me to produce. BUT, someone has promised to help me with the computer part of the photos. It is going to take a little time to get settled here, get the plastic navy put back together, shipped gear reassembled, new job started, new yak hauler rigged up, place to live, yada, yada.
    Thanks to all

  • WTB: Ice Blades or clear/transparent fin blades

    OK, its "that time again"
    I've broken all my Ice Blades except the two I have mounted up in my Omer pockets, so I need to buy MORE Ice Blades. :rolleyes:
    Anyone that has Ice Blades OR clear/transparent blades that will fit into my Omer pockets, please PM me or reply here. I will immediately pay cash (if local) or PayPal anywhere for Ice Blades or clear/transparent fin blades
    Thank you

  • Switched to a 6.5 mm shaft

    I LOVE a light pipe gun.
    IMO, a light 120 pipe gun with a 6.5 to 7mm short spear with rest tab, Tin Man 2 hole muzzle with kill spike, two tight Speardiver bands, and an ENCLOSED TRACK carbon fiber barrel :@ is all the gun I will ever need.
    Power it down by loading only one band on the rest tab for lion fish 2ft from the muzzle. Load both Speardiver small ID bands all the way back to the last tab and shoot almost anything I'll ever see with NO SHAFT WHIP.
    I tip the ET barrel up, start the spear into the ET, let go of the spear and hear it click into the mech is a beautiful thing. :thumbup:

    I have a GRANDSON sdeisens age <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">


    Happy Birthday Brother sdeisen :birthday2:

  • Ocean Kayak Torque motorised kayak

    I checked out the Torque yak when it first came out. Frank in the Keys was selling them.
    Down side of this yak (IMO) was that to be STRICTLY legal here:
    1. You can not Legally launch motorized vessels off our normal public beaches
    2. You LEGALLY have to register any motorized vessel and have FL #s on both sides of the yak haul with annual sticker
    3. Some authorities stated that any motorized vessel had to have boat lights, meaning port/starboard/bow/stern lights.
    4. Any motorized vessel is required to have "real boat" emergency equipment, meaning PFDs, flares, etc, etc
    All of this may have changed over the last several years since I initially check out these regulations.
    Hope this helps

  • Miami dade beach conditions

    7-17-13 Biscayne Bay
    I was out doing my 1 mile ocean triathlon training swim today and swam INTO aprox a dozen moon jellies. Viz was crap and triathlon swim goggle vision is NOWHERE as good as freedive masks, so there probably was WAY more moon jellies near me than I saw. This time of year we do our triathlon swim wearing just a banana sling and feeling the jellies slide down your arm, along your chest/belly, banana sling :@ , thighs and toes makes me wish I was wearing a dive suit.
    Be careful out there IF you have reactions to moon jellies


    PS--Viz was crap, pouring rain all morning, water temp 81F, zero wind and current and FLAT seas
    Hope this helps

  • Guam spearfishing reports

    Marco---I'm in Guam on vacation with my GF visiting her son/wife/3yr old. We are having a good time doing family stuff. So no real diving or training for me, but waters and island are beautiful. This is my first vacation in aprox 10yr so I'm just chillin. I'd move here to Guam if I get a Navy job though. <img src= " height="23" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x">


    Hardline---as most here know, I suck at posting pictures. I've gotten pictures on my iphone and underwater camera but can't seem to find the time so far to upload them. Thanks
