I feel it's inevitable that spearfishing will get banned in this country. There has been at least one incident at british comp a few years ago where 'PETA' types tried to kick off. I'm surprised they haven't appeared at any other comps. Look what has happened to the majority of fieldsports in this country already!! the pro-fox hunting guys had huge support and backing but they lost; if spearfishing gets targeted we have no chance. They are already targeting angling/fishing after the fox-hunt success; if they join forces with someone as anti-spearing as BSAC then there will be a witch-hunt. It won't stop me though even if they do make it illegal.
