nicaragua

We're heading down to the southern zone in April. Does anyone have any diving information? I'm planning to hunt down a panga at Astillero and hopefully get in a day or two.

I'd like to hunt pelagics if anyone is willing to share some info on that. I'm just wondering if anyone can share their experiences or suggestions.

Thanks

Re: nicaragua

I would go to surf and bring your dive gear in case it clears up enough to spear. I have seen rooster fish off of colorado. I bent a lot of shaft on pargos, so bring an extra shaft if you have it.

Re: nicaragua

I live in Gigante and do charters with the best local divers if interested.

FYI: Nicaraguan customs are confiscating all spearguns and spearfishing gear because they currently class it as a "weapon"

Try bringing it into the country at own risk if they find it they will take it away.
I started another thread a month ago to let everyone know about this.

Re: nicaragua

I was going to chance it and take my gun in my surfboard bag, but changed my mind now. On your charters to you have equipment rentals available? I will be at a vacation rental at Colorados June 18-27.

Re: nicaragua

Anyone else have any updates on bringing spearfishing equipment aka guns into nicaragua? Any spots you suggest? I see a lot of people getting dodos on hook and line as they boat to and from surf spots.
