Why a Species Meet?
Freedive Hunting is the only method to practice "Release before you Catch" rather than "Catch and Release" as is done by all other forms of sport fishing. Freedive hunters are given the opportunity to select an individual fish and let the rest swim by and/or, select their trophee abalone or lobster, rather than stressing and endangering several animals, until a suitable one is harvested.
A Species Meet was created to determine the most proficient freedive hunter by establishing rules in which diversity, rather than total aggregate weight, of a catch will prove who the most successful freedive hunter really is.
