Spearfishing
June 4th, 2010. Published under Diving. No Comments.
i finally got going with my spearfishing this year, slow start as my first spearfishing trip was as late as april 24th.
However i have been able to catch some fish, not much compared to what i did last season, or at least not from what i recall. So this year, it will change, as i decided to start “logging” all my spearfishing trips, with what fish i catch, where, their measurements, water temperature and wind conditions. It should all add up into a nice spreadsheet at the end of the season :)
Here below are some photos from my past month of spearfishing.
Commercial Diver

Some months ago i quit my old IT job, and decided to try something completely different. So i startede on commercial diving school Safe Air and i just recently completed the surface supplied course along side Nitrox course. So now I am now a Commercial Diver Class A+B+C with Nitrox according to IDSA standards.
Here below are some pictures from the education, which have been very evolving for me personally as well. I got to overcome things i was more or less scared of before. For instance i think i have been cured of my claustrophobia. I have also fallen even more in love with diving, which i found hard to belive at first was possible, but it is :
Running around, literally, on the sea bed with a helmet working your ass of is just so fantastic a feeling. Must be the closest thing you can come to feel like the astronauts on the moon felt when running around partially weightless!
Chasing the dream!
