Diving
Another trout gets the speargun!
The night between tuesday and wedensday i once again ventured into the dark waters of Denmark, armed my Excalibur 2000 spear gun & my Treble-Light underwater lamp, whist wearing a nice 6.5 mm wetsuit made for freediving in cold water and pair of long fins plus excessive amounts of lead to keep me under water!
I got another fine brown trout a little larger than the two previous ones i killed.My dive buddy got 4 trouts! One of them weighing a stunning 3.66 kg and it was 67 centimeters long, sorry for the bad picture, its taken with my Mobile phone with only my cars headlights on as light.
First Brown Trout, two actually!
Last night, on a very late night dive with a buddy, i shot my first two brown trouts. Fantastic feeling, and a very nice and tasty fish. We saw several more of them, but after killing two, and my buddy three, we decided that we would only kill more if we found any real big ones.
Anyways, heres a picture of the two nice trouts :)
Shark conservation!
Has gotten my interest, not that i dident have it, but after watching Sharkwater i feel obligated to help in whatever way i can. I cant really explain it, but i see my self as more of a Discovery Channel generation than a MTV generation kid. And i have always been a great fan of nature despite me being a bit nerdy focusing so much on computers etc. at times.
Anyways, my point is, you should watch Sharkwater, with a open mind off course, some of it is probably more propaganda than facts ( like the quote “Soda pop machines kill more people than sharks”) which i actually think is a shame they write, that made the movie go a bit more un serious than what i think was intended.
The fact that sharks are being hunted solely for their fins (which they are!) is much like elefants being killed soley for they ivory tusks! The difference is though, that people love to hate sharks and therefor don’t give a rats ass about them dying.
So, i was catching my self thinking, if it wasn’t for my 6 months old daughter and my soon to be wife, and the fact that im somewhat a materialist. I need the income for us to uphold our living standards .. What im saying is, god i would have joined the Sea Shephard if i had been single !
Samsoe 2008
I’m currently on vacation with my little family on Samsoe, enjoying the danish summer ( rain and clouds =/ ) and just chilling. Planning on going diving a day or two while were here, plus a pair of good friends are coming to visit next weekend, where we go home as well.
