Re: Kona shrimp/prawns

Macrobrachium lar is the Tahitian prawn and it is found in Hawaii. But I would think it's unlikely to be found in or around Kona. The natural life cycle of M lar and rosenbergii (the commercially...

Re: Spearfishing Belize Amazing waters !!!

I live in Belize, and my son's name is Jake. And we spearfish from Gran Channel to English Caye (about a 45 mile stretch of the reef) and the outer atolls a bit too. But that's not my son Jake. Just...

Re: Anyone have current info on spearing Belize - Ambergris Cay

Call Roberto Bradley. 226 2116. He's a great guy.

He's a very good fishing guide and if he doesn't want to take you spearfishing, he probably knows someone who will.

Re: New in Panama

The Panamanians know, Marco. I called Fisheries there and warned them that El Marco was coming……there will be no fish left if you let him spearfish……

Re: Don't Understand???

Wow. I live in Belize. Do you think you can show me some spots? Or how to shoot some nice fish? I used to spear on scuba but now I've seen the light. Hogfish are really hard to get, no?

Re: belize regulations? ?

I don't know of any limits. But you cannot shoot permit, tarpon or parrot fish. If you're new to this area I doubt you'll get a limit on our snappers if there was one. No offence, but they're pretty...

Re: Belize help

You called it. The best diving is in the cuts in the reef. San Pedro is pretty crowded and I haven't dived there for years but there are some nice cuts especially farther north.

Best if you get a...

Do you (OP) have any felony convictions? If so, you can't get a passport. And if the border guys type in your name, it'll probably pop up in bright red colors that you're a convicted felon....and WHY...

Re: How do you rig your breakaway setup?

I landed that fish using that system, but as Jon (Behslayer) said, you do run the risk of losing the whole gun and rig. I don't do blue water often, but when I do I use a breakaway with two wraps....

Re: How do you rig your breakaway setup?

I can't really see in your picture. Are you using a double wrap of shooting line? Or are you attaching the floatline to only one wrap of shooting line?
If it's double wrapped I don't think the...

Re: What to do when you hear a boat?

Although it's a good idea anytime you're diving, staying with your buddy and diving one up, one down helps a lot if there are other boats around. You have eyes on the surface then at all times.
