    Air consumption tips?

    All else being equal it aint how big your lungs are and how much you breathe in its how fast you let it out. NEVER hold your breath but exhale slowly. Proper weighting and lower workload helps air to last longer. Also staying 10ft or so above the group will help your bottom time be closer to...

    Carrying Nautilus on plane

    Has anyone carried one of these things on the plane and is it allowed? I am traveling to Cozumel in two weeks and just got mine in the mail. I can see where a security screener would be suspicious of it until they are more popular. I can just check it but hate to do so with a valuable electronic...

    Who accommodates giant strides?

    I agree with Robint. You should be able to enter in the ladder area of most any boat. May be an obstacle course getting there but once your there you could get in and put gear on. A giant stride is possible from the ladder area on most small boats I have been on. I have seen and done them from...

    Cozumel changed to spearing destination

    So can a tourist legally take a lionfish or only a DM or local? I am going down in Feb and would enjoy taking my pole spear and helping out the cause. If yes are fishing licenses necessary and what are the costs?

    COSTA RICA (Guanacaste) Dive Ops ?

    We dove with Deep Blue last weekend. My observations to your questions are as follows: 1) Day 1 there were appx. 10 people on our dive boat plus crew.

    Red Snapper Ban Headed To Washington

    Anyone interested in keeping their right to fish whether it be by pole, spear or net should rally behind this cause and join FRA (Fishing Rights Alliance) or similar groups. We are facing the shortest red snapper season ever (both spear/pole). Diving or fishing the rigs in Louisiana produces...

    Speargun

    Ditto John P. If you are hunting in low viz don't buy a long gun. I use a Cressi Sub pneumatic in our lakes and it does the job for a budget gun. I have also used it on smaller fish offshore. You also will have to decide between a band gun and a pneumatic. My son also uses a small 2 band JBL gun...

    What "reefs" do you plan to fish? Most snapper, triggerfish and grouper are good to eat where legal.

    Going to Breezes Runaway Bay Resort & Golf Club

    I have not been to Runaway Bay only other Superclub resorts. If they offer a shallow and deep dive, like other Superclub resorts, but only let you do one dive I would sign up for the shallow dive. Then show up for the deep dive each day and ask them if there is room. Usually there is since its...
