Ireland Spearing, 2011

[chealy]

Probably the wrong time of year for Ireland, kerry gets hit with alot of swell that time of year. You would be better bringing a surfboard than speargun...

It's a bit quiet round here!!!!
It was looking calm enough earlier today. Did anyone get in? I didn't have time myself.

Tomorrow Sunfish tomorrow. Escaping early before wife awakes.

To busy at this moment. I was thinking about this weekend but seems to be very windy.

Swell up to 6m this weekend!!! I'd doubt u will get out. I hear there was good diving in Dublin this week city centre......

Explain please....

Dave... I was almost crying about the weather.... but I'm back on the weekend shift of Thurs/fri/sat 8am to 8pm.

Over the last few weeks, the weather seems to turn mank from Sat to wed and there is some decent conditions on thursday / friday....

This damn job is seriously interfering with my diving... if it wasnt paying the bills....

I'll have to check my logs but I reckon I've only caught about 6 bass this year with 4 of them caught 2 days back to back in the summer

well lads big swell and getting caulder. Its not a good sign for freediving when the tow in surfers arrive on the jetskis. More power to them. Staying poolside for a bit so if you know of anyone interested please do the usual. FreeDiveIreland.com - Courses
Should have a bit of a mention in the indo weekend supplement either next weekend or the one after that.

Sure what can you do in this weather but go out for an old forage
Got a nice feast of mussels yesterday and my missus found some whopper!!

Transforms to this

And we even got a few prawns from the kids to boot

trying to fill them up before

And ultimately

 

[johnnybuoy]

Brilliant rob. Got the small fella as dressed up as I could and with the shit weather I had loads of time on my hands to do pumpkins!!

 

[bobdonny]

5 savage pumpkins!!

Cod almighty! Man catches 80lb whopper big enough to make 135 fish suppers - The Daily Record

 

[johnnybuoy]

Hoping for some late season entries (an eighty pound cod would do it.)

 

[bobdonny]

No terribly interesting in the vid or the size fish...but.... damn..... walkie talkies in the dry bag are a freaking awesome idea!!!!

plenty of times I've been diving away from a buddy and wanted to tell them about a shoal or what not!!

I'll be picking up a cheap set!

Great, you got a Banks Board...I love mine, it makes life so much easier, especially the water resistant hatch, I keep my keys, phone and camera in there. All you need now is a few decent days to try it out.

 

[Don Paul]

Best board ever , a nice flag will let the boats see ya.

Cheers, Don

 

[bobdonny]

Ya it looks awesome... cant wait to get a nice clear spell to use it!

I think it will look great loaded with scallops and a nice bass

Yes, but at this time I advice you to load this by beer and stay at home
