Jaguigui its very nice of you to be helpful to a nonlocal
I was super lucky in hawaii to have some local guys help me out

Jaguigui, ---as sdeisen said, your information is priceless to me here in Guam. I can't thank you enough brother.

Lunkerbuster---thank you for the kind words brother

sdeisen---you sir, would be in bun heaven here. Tons of dark eyed, thin asian girls. Massage place next to massage place as far as the eye can see. Single girls solo diving and swimming and eyeing even this old guy.

I'm afraid this this trip to Guam has been kind of sidelined with GF family.

Today was another family beach day.
I swam out to the edge of the reef with just mask and snorkel and a rock as a weight to get me down to the sand.
No real shootable fish here.
This is another pretty beach in Guam but a long drive from Tumon Bay.

Thank you sir.
I miss spearin with you guys

I thought I was having a flashback the other day when I started seeing porgies here in Guam the other day, then I swam another 100ft out from shore to the edge of the Mariana Trench and I knew I wasn't in Kansas. <img src= " height="23" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x">
Nice speardive report and way nice pictures guys.

Hau, sorry I keep interjecting, just tryna help out a fellow spearo in my homeland, but check out this place called Marine lab in the village of Mangilao. It should be calm this time of year. It's a great spot, be careful of the stonefish on the reef over there though.

jaguigui--brother, no need to be sorry sir. Your information and direction is priceless to me and to others here that have the great opportunity to spearfish here in Guam. I greatly appreciate all the "interjecting" that you are willing to share with me. Thank you very much sir :toast2:

Today was a family day at a protected beach on the Navel base. (go Navy <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">)
Gab Gab Beach is on the SE side Guam, in a protected bay, so there was no current and no waves. This is a no spear zone, so I just practiced on my Guam spearfishing education. Saw some porgies here, just like Miami but bigger. The big parrot fish here are spear educated and jumpy from being shot at
Saw lots of navy ship activity so the bay must be pretty deep.

edit--Dan, I'll post pictures as soon as possible sir

Went to Gun Beach today with same crew as yesterday
This beach was way better and had way more color.
Easy beach access and the locals pointed me out in the right direction today.
Say my first tiger today when I drifted out past the "DROP OFF"
Saw some shootable fish today, but they were too educated to let this white boy get within 95cm range:)

edit: jaguigui---you are the best brother :toast2:
Thank you, thank you sir

sdeisen---thank you sir. You don't owe me anything. Your friendship is payment enough sir:)

First day in Guam waters today. Also first day with my new Speardiver 95cm CF. Shore diving is amazing here in Guam.
Went to Tamuning Bay with GF and 2 yr old grandson. Reef was aprox 200yd off shore, then dropped to blue Spent 1hr target practicing with new gun= it shoots very well for a 95cm gun with hau length (long) bands. Had this gun custom made to fit into my special airline case. Lovin the Speardiver SS 3 fin shafts and my normal reel set up. I breezed through all customs and no one even asked OR opened my speargun case. <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">
Not many fish on this beach so I'll try others in the following days. I don't know where to beach freedive spearfish here in Guam, but "fish are gonna die".
(GF is WAY more savy with the computer so maybe I can get her to help me post up some pictures later)
Hope this helps

edit--jaguigui, GREAT, thank you for being the first to help me here in Guam. I will go to the dive shop you suggested sir. :toast2:
The girls here are amazing also. Long straight hair, dark eyes, small stature and VERY friendly. <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 wanted to start this thread to provide spearin conditions in Guam. I will try to update it every day I'm out..
Other spearos that can contribute to this thread for this area please feel free to do so.
Hope this helps.

WOW--nice fish sir. Very nice pictures too. Congratulations

As always, nice spearin, great vid and great story sir. Congratulations.
Thats a good woman that waits at the beach for 8 hours for her man to return

Welcome to the best freedive spearfishing forum in the world. Lots of very experienced speardivers here.
Good luck on your move.

Wow Monster--very nice gun set-up. Very nice shooting. :attack2:
Very nice dog. Looks like nice shooting buds also. Congrats sir.

Where is Hau. He is at least 100??

Yes brother, I am 62 and stil here. <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"> Thank you for the kind words as always sir.
My spearin has almost stopped as I have taken up doing triathlons But me and MaryLotus are planning to spear in Guam soon.
I notice I can't spear as deep as long as I used to, but I can still wiggle my worm :bed:
I get GREAT enjoyment in younger spearos enthusiasm and being able to share what knowledge I have acquired over the years. I envy many spearos like Don and Hank who get to watch their sons grow up spearin.
I watch in despair as our spearin rights and freedoms are taken away from us.
I watch in despair as spearin loved ones and aquaintances pass from us.

3-24-2013: Don Pinder died. Don freedove and shot the World Record 804lb Goliath Grouper with a sling off Crandon Park in 1950. His brother Fred Pinder has died years ago and now Don has left us. Art Pinder lives on as does their freediving/spearfisherman cousin Charley. I miss these old ones
Rest in peace my brothers.

Quote from Andrewk

South of long key the 3 mile rule doesnt apply. however, everything close gets hit hard.

South of Long Key bridge there is no 3 mile limit on the Atlantic side. However, keep in mind that you probably will get stopped and inspected by: MCSO, FHP, KLPD, FWC, Home Land Security, USCG, Fish Huggers United and a few others I have forgotten. Also, there are protected areas you are not allowed to spear, areas that you are not allowed to even be in, No guns in the state parks, zones where you are not allowed to drop an anchor, etc, etc, etc.
Oh yea, I forgot. Good luck <img src= " height="23" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x">

Welcome back home brother.
Glad you an Nate got some nice fish.
