Does anyone have spearfishing dreams?

Last night I had such an awesome dream.

I don't remember much of it but what I do rememeber is being on the surface and looking down about 60 feet or so. There were huge hali's all over the place, big lobsters for the taking, lingcod, groupers, sheepshead, tuna, you name it and it was there chillin waiting for me to kill it! Now I want to go out so badly! I'm for sure doing a turkey day dive! Dive safe guys!

Re: Does anyone have spearfishing dreams?

Two nights ago I dreamed I came upon a 40-50 lb black grouper. I pulled my gun up to shoot and realized I didnt' have any bands on it. So I stabbed it and was trying to poke the shaft into it and hold it down. I woke up thrashing the sheet and covers around with my wife grabbing my arms. haha. True story...

Re: Does anyone have spearfishing dreams?

Funny I had a duck hunting and spearfishing dream at the same time. I was out duck hunting over a lake in a swamp when all of a sudden barracuda start falling from the sky then I notice that there when some wahoo mixed in! I got all excited and set down my shotgun and picked up my speargun and was trying to shot the wahoo while they where falling out of the sky. I don't know why I didn't just use my shotgun..... LOL.

Re: Does anyone have spearfishing dreams?

Ryfish tells a dream story about cuda moving across the sky like ducks and he spots a wahoo in the mix, he unloads two bands off a Bluewater gun he happens to be standing in a grassy field with(hmm??) so as to not over penetrate the fish then let's one fly. He said it felt like Duck Hunt the Nintendo game. Watching him re-tell this story will entertain me for years to come. He tells it like it really happened in real life. He is such a dead serious hunter and sportsman by nature that a this story is a comic relief to his normal wahoo raping attitude.

I have only had a few Spearo dreams and most were the unloaded gun type where I'm reloading quick to get a shot off. This may be why I'm a single band rail gun fanatic. Fast reloads !!!

Re: Does anyone have spearfishing dreams?

Often. But there is always some malfunction. Last one, I was in the water and realized my wife's chihuahua was in the water and a tiger shark was circling it. I tried to spear the shark but my gun was a rifle and it wouldn't work underwater. The shark came right at me and I woke up.

Less red wine before bed...or more.

Re: Does anyone have spearfishing dreams?

Yeah I've had some crazy spearfishing dreams. One recently I was diving in like 80ft and it was weird because on one dive I took a deep breath and I was down there for 8 minutes. It felt so real, like I felt like I didn't even need to breath. I got to the surface and looked at my watch and I was freaking out! Then I woke up. Haha I wish I had a 8 minute dive time!

Re: Does anyone have spearfishing dreams?

Funny what you say about 'always a malfunction' Powers. I constantly have dreams about going surfing then never catching a damn wave.
No spearo dreams yet but something tells me they will lack shooting a fish successfully. What the hell is up with that?
