Re: Destin Visit

The trip went well overall. John, Joe and the rest of the guys at Benthic are top notch and a pleasure to work with. They bailed me out in a large way!

Re: new to freshwater: living in FoCo Colorado

I'm a San Diego boy here in Fort Collins. Colorado is not very friendly to spearfishing but as you correctly deduced, Wyoming and Nebraska are close by. Drop me a PM if you'd like to go scout out...

Re: $20 Bounty on Northern Pike

Colorado is pretty restrictive as far as spearfishing is concerned. We can shoot carp and pike. I'd be game for a trip up there.

$20 Bounty on Northern Pike

I just saw on the news that Colorado is offering a $20 bounty on pike caught at Green Mountain Reservoir. Time for spearos to step up and help out! (And make some cash to support the addiction.)

Re: Looki g for a Kids Wetsuit

Thanks for the reply guys, I appreciate it. The Sports Chalet deals sound awesome, too bad I haven't seen one here in Colorado in years.

Re: FII Level 1 Class Scheduled in Austin

Dave, I'm fishing a couple of days while I'm there. Once out of Port A and one day in SPI. Port A is tentative, so if it falls through I'll give you a shout.

Pat, thanks so much for the...

Re: Belize: Traveling with gear, suggestions please.

Sport tube works great for that trip. If customs asks what's in it, just tell them fishing gear. A 1.5mm suit is nice to protect you from light brushes with the reef. Do not keep fish on a stringer...

Re: New snorkel 22% more breath hold, bs?

A snorkel is a necessary evil for freedivers. Low drag is the key. Notice the Trubridge quote, it is the "Bentley of snorkeling", not of freediving, two very different activies.

Re: A word to MAKO

I don't think anyone here is saying that Mako has the perfect gear line up and that all other companies should close shop. I either own or have owned Omer, Sporasub, Immersion, Gatku, Moana, Riffe,...

Re: Aeris F10 $249 Deal

I haven't posted in a while so I was surprised to see my name in this resurrection. I just got off the phone with Mako getting some gear for a Baja trip. They quoted me the same $275 deal.

Re: Attention Mako Lovers and Haters (Wetsuit Question)

Re: FII Course Oct. 25 in San Antonio

Well, I've had to cancel the course. I took a spill the other day and broke my ribs. Gaudi, you are going to love that trip, that is an amazing dive. Be sure to bring your Gopro.

That is the place. I've never worked with them before, but they seem like an easy going group.
