Sounds great 8Shot - I'm a long way away tho' - how often do you go out ?

Hi 8shot, I would be very interested in joining you, I have always wanted to try spear fishing. I live in Exeter and also have owned my own boat since last April which I use for fishing and cruising around the Exe so am comfortable in and around boats. I'd be more than happy to repay the favour with a trip out of the Exe. 

Shall I PM you for further details?

Many thanks

hi while i live in plymouth i work in torquay.  two people i carshare with and me have decided to take up spearfishing and have bought all the kit. we would be up for meeting up and any trips.

 

we tried for the first time last thursday of meadfoot but due to easterly winds and waves and lack of visability we didnt even get to load the guns.  we heading out tomorrow off livermead or maybe broadsands so fingers crossed.  we are like wise planning some trips we going to hire cannoes when weather improves for some beach camping and spear fishing.

 

if any one has got any tips on where to go that would be a huge help we can head any where from teignmouth down to whitsand bay but dont really know where is best

thanks ali
