A short while ago I got a PM from a friend asking what I thought of this new shaft he found online. It was a SalviMar Torsion 2 (Salvimar home page). I had never seen it, but I was curious. I loved the idea and how low profile it was. I started searching for information right away. I contacted SalviMar directly to see who sells the Torsion 2. It turned out that they do not have a direct US distributor. OMER distributes some of their stuff, but they are looking for a US distributor for the...

I found an e-mail address for Mr Flood and sent him the following:
I recently recieved a reply from you about spearfishing in Illinois. You referenced Parts 110 and 810 of the Administrative Rules. I don't have access to these and I can not find them online. So I will have to use my own common sence in replying to what I have in this letter.
First you say these parts statutorily prohibit spearfishing. That is exactly why I feel things need to change! The are prohibiting...

I'm going to start writing an article to be published by whomever will print it. I have a few places in mind to send it to start with. This is a rough draft and a place to gather thoughts for this article.
It seems Illinois is intent on protecting people from themselves. There is less and less freedom in the US in general, but Illinois seems to want to lead this charge.
I decided to see what can be done to change the view of diving and spearfishing in Illinois....

First the day started off scary and got worse. My daughter is driving and need to get so many hours in order to get her driers license. So she is driving me 3.5 hours north to WI. That is scary enough. About an hour north a 12 point buck trots across the road. She did good she got slowed down and did not hit the deer. But she did not keep looking and the 8 point that was following almost put it's rack in her door. Everything turned out fine. My 90cm gun has a reel, I may have been able to take the...

I got lured up to WI by the promise of wish. Jon sent out a PM and I was certain it would be a good day for getting fish in the freezer. I climbed into bead and looked at the clock, the alarm was set. My wife wakes me and points to the clock at 5:45....I was going to leave the house at 5:00. She set the alarm to get my daughter up, not me! Gahhhh.... I scramble and PM unirdna to let him know I'm a little late. My intent was to get to unirdna's about 8:30 - 9:00, but I got there at 9:30.
