Re: Immersion Freediving Line training + spearfishing trip Saturday at 11:00

This was an amazing trip.



We started out in 6 inch seas in about 1000ft of water. We set the rig up and just did some pull downs to get warmed up. I felt super relaxed and the pulldowns felt great, much more than normal.
1st pull down
3rd pull down

After we did some warm ups we starting doing some 133ft (40M) dives. There was a nasty thermocline. It started at 100ft and got worse as I got deeper. I checked my computer and it went from 85 to 71 once you got past 100ft. I quickly decided it was time to go spearfishing.

After a shortened training session we went and did some spearfishing. We spent most of the time having the captain drop us on various spots on the 3rd reef and just drifting and hunting in the 60ft range. We ended up with two nice 21 inch muttons.



My kind of trip, will do more of these in the future.
Great combination of freediving and spearfishing.
