Hi Jussi,
That will Be a pleasure,
I am not sûre Where I will be at this période and if I will have my guns.
Actually the airport police dont allow anymore Spearguns from oversea except if you have an import licence?
I will let you know.
 
Hiya,
Would be great if you're around to do some wreck diving etc.
As for spearfishing, I don't have a speargun, and was planning just to do freediving, so as long as the airport police lets me bring my fins, I should be fine :) Let me know when you know if you're around.

Yes, freediving is good :)
 
Hi Alex,
So, you will be somewhere on the Island, right? I've booked lodging close to the Liberty Wreck. Let me know whereabouts you'd be .. As said, I'll arrive on the 27th late night, and then will head back on the 31st afternoon.

Looking forward!
Jussi
 
The story

my six weeks in Indo, looking fish over hill and dale;


And that's faster than I thought to myself that despite the price, it was worth it to pay for a boat hunting stay with people who know the spots and take you directly to the fish.


Because here I sailed quite casually and I spent a lot of time negotiating with captains for sessins 3/4/5/6/7/8 hours in water with a score 76 dives on a session.

My main mistake was to leave after 1 year off and it took me weeks to find the correct level.
The water almost constantly at 29 ° and a royal visibility 20 / 30m helped thoroughly but current catches you!
A madness!

There are 3 years I was away in the corner and a really cool time, this time at all.

In my travels I have met some friendly people, very accommodating and especially Andre who has lent me a gun for the first 3 weeks of the time when I had my guns blocked by customs.
I would also very awkward to advise people on the go there with guns since I do not know if the law is still in force. I met spearos who is like me hang their guns and some not, who knows why?

In short, in the end, after testing his gun I made the investment of 1 144 oval triple 16 with ET and sliptip; The good idea for the future;
I have made wonderful encounters under water,
Mola mola one gigantic,
Eagle ray , it's a beauty,
Manta rays immense,
Millions of turtles,
Spots Angel fish on almost every dives
I have taken a few fish,
The first time many no fish, sometimes not very big trevally, sometimes I offered the old sinner to the line ( fisherman )off again with a smile, sometimes I shared with the family of captain who took me on the right spot, sometimes shared with resort staff, sometimes with the travelers I met on my way.
The failures were exceptional too,
2 superb dogtooth 30kg mini,
1 of around 50kg trevally,
Several spanish some more than 20 and 1 wahoo.
The catch on the end were more fun with
1 yellow snaper 12kg
dogtooth 8 to 11kg
2 trevally 19 and 21 kg
And my maousse of 44kg (ignobilis).
Great trip to redo
