I am having problems with my entry. I am not getting my fins down far enough on my duck dives so having to fin slighly at the surface so scaring away the fish I am trying to dive on. So how do I do a entry onto fish where they will not be scared away? I have been using both the one leg method and the two.
 
havnt seen u around in a few, everything good?

not sure of the methods, but i keep both legs together, pointing down to the bottom, then just double my body up, sticking my feet up into the air, weight seems to do the rest... i get my fins probably about a foot underwater before i start kicking.

maybe its that 1000 mm wetsuit, i tell ya, u need to dive in warmer climates throw another couple lbs of lead on your belt and see if it helps

Everything going fine. Just no internet access at home. Your welcome to email me though.

I am weighted for the depths I am fishing. If I put any more lead on I will become too negatitive. Then I will forsure see the mermaids.
 
Jimmy you need to have patience and wait a few seconds after the duck-dive. Give it 3 seconds and you will find that you are completely immersed. Watch Stu for a great example of the art of patience!
Peace brother,

also make sure that you remove the snorkel from your mouth , as the bubbles come out of it also scare the fish
