Hey guys.....Been spearfishing around Falmouth/Swanpool area for a few seasons on my own, and would be great to meet up with other people that fish too....I've done ok, but I'm sure theres still loads of room for improvement, and you cant beat learning from others!! If anyone is up for meeting up for a fish, let me know...Have an eight month old daughter, so time is a bit limited, but I'm sure if I'm bringing the odd bass or two home!!.....

Well i headed down late sunday to a little spot near Maenporth.Bit of a walk and sea wasn't too smooth but the viz was around 4m so doable.If there had been anything to shoot.....which there wasn't.Saw a few wrasse,that was it.
Gonesurfing....apnea don't hang around,think my order took 3-4 days. Kernowdiver,i dive around falmouth now and then,keep checking this thread for dive reports and let us know how your dives get on.I'll be up for a spear for sure when the conditions start getting better and the fish appear.

Winds look pretty good for the south coast for the next few days.
My trigger finger is getting itchy.

Had a few dives lately.Went in down on the Lizard yesterday,vis was patchy but 2-5m i guess.Didn't see any bass or mullet,just a few chunky wrasse and a couple of spider crabs.Managed a couple of hours until i got cold.Tonight i had a look at Maenporth after work.Tide was already pretty high but i thought sod it and got in there anyway.Vis was great....8m plus in some places.Had a good look about but again didn't see anything to shoot.....couple of big wrasse and one solitary pollock hanging out with them.Got cold quick too.
Nice though,if the winds stay in the north west it might be worth a look later in the week.I'm sure this time last year there was plenty of mullet about.Where are they all?

I dont think you need to have any injections, but you might have to go in quarantine for a while I got in for my first dive of the year near Falmouth last thursday. Got a nice bag of scallops and saw a few thornbacks, but nothing else to report. I was diving in an area that could potentially be closed to taking scallops in the future http://forums.deeperblue.net/cornwal...mouth-bay.html cheers dave Spearguns by Spearo uk ltd finest supplier of speargun, monofins, speargun and freediving equipment |
