Then why should it be outlawed?
Anyway, being a diver who spears on both scuba and free Id have to say in some locales scuba has absolutely no place(I would never spear on scuba on reefs in the keys for ex.)but hunting amberjack on a rig in 400 ft of water...if you ever have you will know what I'm talking about.
My biggest concern however is this lack of foresight...if we have divers pro banning spearing in any form, how long do you think it will be before its all banned? We had a recent thread about being more united for the preservation of our sport but if we beat ourselves up who's left to fight the "green machine"? Damn this sport becomes more of a sitting duck everyday it seems.

I have no problems with the opinions of you guys, providing it's not blatantly wrong or stupid.
