Although based in the UK, and originally from Spain, I have some very fond memories of Spearfishing in Jersey. My Grandmother still lives in St Helier and she bought me my first 'proper' speargun (an early Sporasub Dessault) from Steve Arthur at Graeme le Maistre (used to spend hours in that shop). I also bought gear at First Tower Watersports and then anywhere which was walking distance from Bath Street, I would fish (Green St beach, Havre des Pas, 3 sisters, La Rocque). I caught one of my first ever bass in the boot weed alongside St Catherines Pier. I look forward to being able to back one of these days and try some other spots around the Island and also relieve the Guernsey boys of one or two of their bass ;-)
