Hi all,

I'm planning on a trip to Terceira/Azores for spearfishing..

Im thinking April this year, somebody there to meet up with?

It would be graet to have a buddy to do some Bluewater trips together !

(Bringing the big gun/2 atm float&bungee aswel as 100cm gun with me)
 
For who's interested:

My plan is to go to the Azores for a week of spearfishing and go on a charter trip with Paulo Gaspar for some serious blue water hunting!

(Paulo dous charter's from May to Octobre)

I wil try to go on a one day charter with Paulo to the Princess Alice Bank, somewehre in July becouse my (main) target
wil be the (bf) Tuna :)

If there are people who like to join this adventure that would be great
The charter costs 950 euro:duh but with 3 people it is rather affordible.

I think with (a bit of luck) it wil be a great trip!

Hello, Fabian!

I was in Terceira in April! From what I was able to gather it is not the best time for spearfishing, summer months are the best! However I am not an expert by any stretch on Blue Water hunting - never done it nor equipped to do it. I spent a week on a catamaran so I was at liberty to dive where I wanted but unfortunately I did not have the pinnacles' coordinates. I also spent three weeks on Santa Maria island in Azores and even wrote a short review. But I did almost exclusively shore dives that would be of no interest to you.

If you were going in summer, I would have considered joining you, but not an April. Make sure that you have a 3mm wetsuit + 3mm vest or a 5mm wetsuit all together. If you think I can provide some info for you, do not hesitate to PM me.

Cheers,

Vadim
