Re: Salinas, Rep. Dom

I agree with the last sentence...been there many times and am sure of the potential for some very good Bluewater hunting. I once saw a Dorado that must have been every bit of a world record and hope to explore more of the DR sometime this year. What are the regulations governing spearfishing...are spearguns permitted or is it similar to the Bahamas and Turks and Caicos...ie, polespears only?
I would also like to add that the photo posted earlier speaks to me of a person determined to get out in the water in spite of very limited resources...in fact, as a working Captain, I collect used dive 'stuff' (masks, fins and snorkels) to give away to kids I meet down-island. The smiles that I get in return defy discription! If anyone wants to send some "stuff" down there, pm me for a mailing address and I'll throw it in the basket on my next run! ...B
