I saw Guernsey fisheries statement that they were not to be targeted or landed by either recreational or commercial fishing, however as far as I'm aware recreational anglers can take them but not sell them? Maybe of course the laws are different in the channel Islands.
Guys and girls, I will be in Guernsey for several days, Stephan invited me to organise some recreational Freediving during the Deeperblue Spearing species competition with a few divers which i'm doing at the moment.
I was wondering what the interest would be in me organising a small micro course on the Friday afternoon (8th August) before the social and / or the Monday evening after the competition (11th August).
The purpose of the course would be to improve the apnea skills of spearos, Freedivers, surfers and Scuba divers. I have condensed some of the most useful information into a single presentation from courses I have designed for surfers to improve their apnea, a spearfishing course that improves hunting skills, and a defensive diving course for Scuba divers, to help deal with (and how to avoid) stress situations.
The lecture would cover information such as
· How to improve apnea times
· Stretching
· Breathing exercises
· Recovery breathing
· Relaxation techniques
· Training tables
· Diet and supplementation and other ideas.
· It will give those attending specific training ideas to actually start improve, and they will see improvements if they do all of the exercises provided.
It would be in the form of a three hour + lecture, a small amount of practical, and some videos with interaction encouraged and questions answered.
The cost would be around £40 per person, the subjects covered are broad, but the format I have set it up in means you will get a lot of good information for your training. These are tried and tested methods and will certainly help you improve your breath hold, and that transfers into more comfort and confidence in the water.
Guernsey Giltheads are getting very nervous!Well that's been a lovely 9 hour drive through general motorway chaos needlessly caused by dozy bloody car drivers [emoji35]
Never mind. I'm now sitting in some dive outside Poole and the beer is excellent. Holiday mode now firmly engaged and looking forward to getting the camp setup and the first Guernsey dive of the year tomorrow eve
