hey Anderson!
I just got a message from the Denny's in Ft. Lauderdale that they need their spoons back! Seriously though, if you take the sparkle thing one step further, maybe if you wore a colander on your head, the fish'd really be intrigued and would come that much closer! Or maybe if you wrapped your studly self in aluminum foil? Gotta work!! Course I can't guarantee that the local and tanned lovelys would understand... BTW Took the Island out the other day and launched a few at some unsuspecting kelp to get used to the thing. Aquiles was right, this thing's a MBZ to my old gun! I'm going to be in Santa Barbara this spring and summer- let's hook up and slay some sea bass. |

Hi,
a friend of mine use a 10 pounder tied to his floater when hunting in shallow water, so he get to the bottom faster but dont have as much weigth to bring up. This is also usefull as an anchor for your float.

I use different sets of weights for different conditions ....
Light weights (around 4kg's) or no weights for normal diving Heavy weights (around 8kg's) for shallow dives (less than 8 meters) Medium weights (6kg's) when cave / hole diving - belt with slap buckle (you slap it and it comes off) It's also got the weights integrated into the belt - nothing sticks out. Dare I say it ..... I use "Negative Dive" techniques to get down with less weight ..... just lose some air and sink like a rock. Sure bottom time and equalizing is affected, but hey, it works. Regds, Riaan

i thought this thread was too old to get responses!
sven, don't threaten me with a good time! end of spring and summer are completely open. i've yet to try my new omer 5mm super stretch, so SBarb sounds like a weiner for testing! the weight off the float sounds interesting. it may complicate some things though. i think i might try that off my boat. i guess you couldn't really consider that cheating. it would be a good way to get down 90' w/o using energy. i think for normal hunting, i'm just going to have to get some more weights that are easily added/removed so i can keep my stealthyness. i'm just going to have to make sure my buddy is keeping a more watchful eye on me. thanks for the words guys, and riaan... stop molesting those white sharks down there, you might upset some of the animal rights activist people ~anderson

Anderson, would you mind telling us about the new OMER suit? First thoughts, cost, service from where you got it? I like OMER stuff, and am interested. Maybe start a thread in Freedive Equipment? Chers buddy, Erik Y.

I am surprised you guys don't use the "dead bottles" training technique.
You just throw different sized shampoo bottles (or any plastic bottles) in the sea and shoot! The bottles are light enough to immitate a moving target. You can also use that to test fire a new speargun or to get used to it... Just don't forget to pick the bottles back on the boat when you're done! I personally always do that the day before a competition when shooting fish in the zone is forbidden. Cheers, Ivan |

Hi all,
An important note on the posts by me in the beginning of this thread: A lot of the information I've posted here regarding Hunting technique is information I've downloaded from the internet over the past couple of years. I've experimented, researched and found that most of these make sense and have helped me hunt more efficiently. I've spoken to the person who originally wrote most of the material, and have aggreed to put up this notice. The website where it all started can be found at www.spearfish.org Many thanks to Ivan for supplying me and the many other divers out there with this info. Regards, Riaan C

Don't know exactly how I came across this ancient thread, but found it very interesting, insightful, and informative. Indubitably!
Bumping it because I found it so intriguing... hope newer members as well as some of you veterans that already read it can get something out of this
