For your information, Catch and Release for Makos is no more legal up there, Spaniard. New UK regulations say that if you happen to hook one, it is forbidden by law to let it go. And that's reasonable: those things f...ng bite!
Back on topic: using bait for spearfishing is a common thing in some countries, as well as using "flashers" to attract the fish. But here in the Mediterranean baiting is a no-no, as it is considered "unloyal" and uneffective. More useful for you, in the "Hunting technique" section of the forum, there's a thread called "How to get close to the fish". Some good advice in it.
