Ok been rolling around this idea for sometime...Whatya guys think about putting a spearin' contest together...any input?
 
Haha funny you would bring this up. I was thinking about this if we had a large group during the overnight trip lol!!

How would the rules work?? Heaviest fish wins it? What area?? Time frame?? Prizes??........... fish fry?? haha
 
I dunknow:duh...objective really is to get a few Florida guys together share some laughs, tips, competitiveness, and comradship. Guess it would be something like an entry fee, a given area say Gov. Cut north to Haulover Cut from one set time to another weigh in time...it could be for most pounds of Fish- one species each max 3 in cooler, or biggest fish (I'm planning on starting a Fish of the Month Thread...so the contest could revolve around this Fish....one only with max of 3 of same in the cooler...as an example)...the winner takes the pot (the $$$ dude the $$$) or a prize...if its a prize then we leave the $$$for the grand prize (this idea would be pretty qool if we do the fish of the month thing...in other words

We have a fish of the month contest $___ entry... 3 of same fish max, enter biggest fish you shot...winner takes a prize, $$$goes to pot
Next month new fish...repeat and so forth...then the final contest one of each of the fish...only one in cooler, only one can be entered, must have one of each fish...the one with most #'s total fish wins the $$$pot$$$, or one of my guns...nah

Just thinking outloud, but its a start...what do you guys think:confused:
 
You guys thought of contacting the Broward Longfins and the Miami Freedivers? Broward Longfins meet the 3rd monday of each month at Bass pro Shop in Dania. Guests are welcome; you can contact the President of the club beforehand and discuss with him (see his contact info in www.longfins.org).

ewwww, why man! does it curve on you or what? I used regular dyneema line actually it's the line that goes on the reel. Any ways I went down to austins to get a clip and I did exactly what that guy did on his, hopefully it works out the way I want it to. I don't see why not any ways.
 
Oye tu......peste fambeco......deja la pajeria con el stringer deposite los pescados en la nevera consorte......no te combiene tener tantas cuberitas flotando atras de ti.......te va a comer la pierna un animal prieto y se lo voy a tener que decir a tu familia que paso......y tambien porque soy yo que se esta quedando con tu equipo! Dale tu, pajarasco..........
 
Tone, sux about ur cam.....were u using a case around a personal digital camera? Cuz i've been unsuccessful in locating one for my canon for less than $250......needless to say, I have no desire to pay near the equivalent of what my camera itself cost me......any ideas? I'd be much abliged......and dude, gimme a call when u get the chance I'm hitting the keys for three days after my bday, fri-sun for some spearing....
 
Oye you flammer! don't worry you will be the last person I would leave my gear 2. I'll take that with me just like my boat sucker! don't hate cuz I keep my fish full of cuberas. Dude no te hagas que ahy no hay nada unless you growing sharks & for some reason have decided no to tell me.
 
Conyo papo!! What a bunch of Cubanazos up in here jaja! I'm working on a stringer rig for my boogie float, I just finished up a 400lb 75ft float line for my soon to come open water adventures :martial. Armando try using a boogie board, works well for me at least.


Mario your B-Day is this week...... along with like half a dozen of my buddies lol.. April is a BDay fest I swear! What part of the keys are you hitting up?

roflHow about my boat bro? I was planning on using my boat! I'm not sure how far I'll be able to move it ....

na seriously I plan to keep it relatively close Inshore
when I dive in deeper spots I plan to put it underneath my dive flag that has a foam underneath & it's attach to the boat. The only thing bad about that is the current. If all else fails I will swim back to the boat and throw it over board. :mad: simple as that
 
should change this thread to the "Cubichon & Company thread....de madrerofl...Armand just can't hack the fish on the float stringer, old habits I guess...CB I have an Olympus waterproof to 33ft and shock proof to 5'...dunno what happen you can see the pix but can't take any the last time it worked was at the Keys, gonna send it in to see

April is a BDay fest I swear! What part of the keys are you hitting up?
tell me 'bout it mine just passed...the 12th:friday
 
Mahi, I know right!? It feels like everyone and there mothers were born in April.....bday is on the 24th, and heading down to Key West that afternoon....buddy of mine is coordinating a stay down there, taking his boat and all that jazz....says to me "it's the perfect bday present; three days of spearing" couldn't agree more......We have some sweet waypoints out there that not too many ppl hitrofl....gimme a call if ur interested in hitting it up bro......how're classes man? If you're ever in need of assistance with papers and such I have a degree in writing....did a lot of ghostwriting for students.....anyway "barillasos pa todo los pescados! :martial.......bueno, los que tienen medida.....


*The Beast*
 
Tone, my sympathies for ur cam :(.....I've gone through a couple of them in the last year and a half - and neither were able to get anywhere near the water for some videos!! .....Let me know how that turns out brother.......Yo, I checked out ur site, pretty interesting stuff.....I love design and all that - I was on my way to Cal Art when the lucrative idea of the the law came into my vision :head.....Anyway, I just finished my new site, and gna post in the next week......if I need any answers, I'm bugging you dude......
