Been a little slack of late. Happy New Year to the lot of ya!! I hope the new year brings you all plenty of fish (unless you are fishing my local spots)
Hopefully the next season should be a good one. I am going in to the kayak side of things and i have a few reefs in mind offshore.

Just thought i'd show you this website i found. Hotsuits Wetsuit Heaters....because every hour in the water counts
It looks ideal if you feel the cold and could be just the thing to take away the edge off the cold water now. I have ordered one for surfing but intend to use it for spearing too. I will let you know how it goes.

You have just gotta stay away from PLymouth aquarium. I made that mistake last year. The big tank with the atlantic fish is a nightmare to watch.
Last year i made it to about feb before i started to get a twitchy trigger finger over my childrens fish tank. Its starting early this year.
The Hotsuits belt is great. After zipping up my suit i felt around the back to see if i could feel the button to set it off and did so by mistake so it is not hard to get it going. The following feeling is hard to understand if you are not into peeing in your suit, but that is what it felt like. The only difference was the warm feeling lasted about an hour! It is the warmest i have been all winter!
The only draw back i found was the belt worked its way up my body andended up just below my chest. I have a few ideas to solve this and i will get back to you. Mind you i was surfing and dont think you would have the same problem diving!
Next time i will avoid fiddling with the button till i start to feel like i may be starting to get cold.

Started reading back through the 2007 thread earlier to see when the fish started showing.My first fish was around March 10th (mullet) and first bass somewhere round April 10th.Nickever had the first bass last year and got a few good ones early on.
By the looks of it there was plenty of diving and fish being taken through March.If i remember rightly the weather and conditions were great and i recall being on the beach for Easter.
It got me all excited and i thought about whipping over to trevellus for a quich dive but my socks and gloves were still floating around in box where they've spent the winter.
Think i'm gonna start getting my gear ready and try having a look next time it looks good.
Anyone else been or thinking of getting in there?

Hi badlander I think most spearos are starting to stir and get itchy trigger fingers which cause them to do crazy things like brave the cold water. I try to stay in all year round and weather providing I get in every chance I can. my last dive on saturdy was the coldest so far but by no means freezing.
Have any of you guys ever been to the Silly isles? I have been watching a program on tele - Island Parish -
I am sure I read somewhere the islands were pretty fished out, esspesialy the flatfish that were once very abundant?
Anyway they sure look beautiful, quite a lot in common with our smaller Islands.

I've been a few times now.It truely is a beautiful place.I have speared there on St Martins on a few occaisions and seen no bass at all.Saw a lot of huge mullet and and all the other usual speicies.Had some good wrasse and pollock on the spinning rod too.I've heard that you don't get that many bass out there which strikes me as odd since they're only 20 odd miles away.Of course,could be there are loads in the right spots but i sure as hell couldn't find any.
