These nasty accidents are all being accrued as future ammo to get rid of spearfishing, so as a sport it is ultra-important to keep our record as clean as possible. Some misinformed folk see us as little better than axe murderers and baby seal clubbers, I heard these exact words spill from the mouth of a government representative. |

It got as far as a draft bill for submission in black letter print that was circulated for public comment, but in a hidden way so that if you were not paying attention very few would have noticed it and it only really had spearfishing as the group most affected, line fishos for the moment were not going to lose anything much. From memory it was back in 2005, so you would not have been doing much spearfishing then. Last edited by popgun pete; 11-20-2019 at 04:28 PM. |

Re: That's gonna leave a mark!
Well no point in saying more, others can judge if you want to take detours from the subject at hand.

Most recently there were proposals to close more large areas of the keys to spearfishing, but not to hook and line. There are already huge areas of the keys where spearfishing is not allowed. So while they may not take it away all at once they are certainly taking it away piece by piece. I don't consider myself paranoid but I am also not too naive to realize that if I am slowly boiled in a pot, the end result is the same. |

Re: That's gonna leave a mark!
Do you guys remember a few years ago, there was post of a guy taking vido of his buddy with a gun mounted go pro ,, clearly loaded..
Some one did chim in and scolded him , witch he needed... I do think alot of these kids acquire spearguns without proper firearms training,,, like I got from my dad starting when i was 10 .
