Experienced waterman, new to spearing. Looking for dive partners

Hey all!

First post here...

I am looking for some people willing to dive with a new guy to the sport. Although I am new, I have been a waterman my entire life (commercial fisherman in AK, fished so cal my whole life, surfed forever, lifeguarded etc etc)

Spearing has always been on my ticklist of life, and well, I'm doin it now!

I have been training once a week at a local sport chalet dive night, and have been learning from some really experienced guys. Our schedules dont really mesh, so I am seeking the interwebs for some new dive partners!

Mornings are usually the only time I have available as I work 6 to 7 days a week nights.

Thanks!

I train everyday. I am a member of the best dive club. I have 6 minute breatholds. I have 10 world records. I have placed in every spear diving event. I own a 50 foot yacht called "Gun Slinger". I will take you under my wing buddy. With a guy like you we could concore the spearfishing world.

Please remember to not feed the BEEK. Hide your women and make sure your liquor is tied up high in a tree and out of reach. The BEEK can get a little nasty around here so watch your Beaver Tail at all times.
