    I think it all depends on what you're after. In fishing, "as previously said" it's necessary to bring the fish to you. When spearing, you go to the fish. I've seen both reef and blue water spearing where some sort of chum was used to keep the fish around. It works.
    Dan,
    my answer to you would be to grind up all your left overs after filleting etc.(no guts), and mixing it with plain old sand or oats. Cheap, and easy. You can also just freeze the left overs and put it in a PVC tube(previously posted somewhere here) and drop it to the bottom.
    Sharks can be an issue though.


    Too shallow,
    I think most people around here just want to jump in and spear. Making all sorts of chumming concoctions is way down on the list. I don't know of any spearo that's gonna wake up at 3 or 4 am to go cast net bait to go spearing. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure there are some out there. And for them to buy the chum and bait,,,,,, forget about it. They would rather shoot Barracudas to use as Shark Chum. A good friend of Dan does this frequently.:D He has pictures/film to prove it..

    Hey Hoff,
    any probs with Ciguatera as with grouper? I hadn't seen all the spots until I got really close to the screen. That must of been a beautiful fish. What's the minimum size allowed/to catch?

    Aaron, that's an awesome sight. Do you snowboard? We go to A-Basin in Colorado a lot because it's the last resort open in that area (1 1/2 hrs from Denver) every year. Into June. It,s the highest resort in the U.S..We were there the year before last on the 5th of June snowboarding in a snow storm. Baldy(top of A-Basin) is 13,680 ft and also an unbelievable sight. The lift takes you up to 13,400. So not the same as climbing 12,000 feet.
    If you have more pics of Fuji, please post them. That's beautiful.


    I also thought he was talking about Suriname/Guiana. I have a friend(Carpet Installer) that works with us that's from there. You can't understand a freaking word he speaks in any language.

    Tin,
    Spanish is a must. It's always been part of this countries history. Plus English and Spanish are neck and neck as the 3rd most spoken Language in the world. What we should all be talking about at his point is, do we need to learn Mandarin?:thinking:
