Hey all,
Been a very long time since I've posted here due to terrible weather and work commitments but I've managed 2 trips in the glorious weather we've had.
My first trip was yesterday at Coverack in cornwall; never been here before but have been told it holds bass. Despite poor vis (2 meters) i persisted and right at the end of my trip i went down for the 'last dive' and right at the end of my breath a school of mullet swam past and i managed to hit one at the back of the pack. turned out to be around 3lb which is the biggest thing i have caught. Now i know you shouldn't do it but i went out without a knife because i lost it on my last trip; which came back to bite me in the ass because as i took it off the spear with the intention of finishing it off with the spear it wriggled out of my hands and swam off..... i was gutted!!
I am sure i can't be the only one this has happened too but still, it sucks!
I'm still learning and any advice or tips to help would be very appreciated, im also looking for a dive buddy if anyone is ever out this way.
cheery guys. please share any beginner stories you may of had/having as they are helpful for people to learn from.
