Could also consider a tourniquet. I don't have one personally but I know people like them.

Kayak Diving and Spearfishing / Re: Trolling to your dive spot
« on: November 26, 2020, 10:10:55 PM »
Most people troll for salmon/ halibut, and most times spearfishing is done in areas where finding those fish is unlikely. I guess it might still be possible if it's in season but does not seem like it's worth the hassle, especially considering how much gear is needed to properly land a salmon. Trolling for rockfish/lingcod could work, but IMO it's easier to just shoot them anyway where you can be selective about the ones you want to keep. I have occasionally brought a rod with me to drift for lings and rockfish if the vis is bad or if I want a break from diving, but don't ever troll. How long do you usually paddle to your dive spots?

Kayak Diving and Spearfishing / Re: New to freediving
« on: November 12, 2020, 05:30:34 PM »
I'm pretty sure MBAY Freediving is holding classes, and I have heard nothing but good things about them. There's a huge community of freedivers around Monterey bay, where the vis can be quite good, especially during fall and winter. Sharks are just something you have to get your mind to be a peace with. You can strategically dive spots that are less well known for sharks or wear a shark shield, but attacks are pretty rare and much less of a danger than bad freediving technique. I'm not diving as much as I used to, but there are tons of people on either this forum or on facebook pages who I'm sure would take you out with them, especially if you get a freediving certification.

General Talk / Re: commercial fishing
« on: July 27, 2020, 02:36:46 PM »
My understanding is that in order to fish commercially you need to have a commercial license and fish on a commercially registered vessel. I am not sure if you could register your kayak as a commercial vessel.

How did the water visibility look? I'm thinking about hopping in for a bit of a dive later today or tomorrow

Gearing Up and Rigging Up / Re: Reel for Morro Bay?
« on: November 13, 2019, 11:31:43 AM »
I am pretty sure you can only fish rockfish in water less than 180ft, but that's still plenty deep enough to want a fast reel. I really like my 2-speed avet, but its a bit pricy. Large baitcasters are also popular for rock fishing, something like a Shimano tranx or Daiwa lexa.

They taste like any other rockfish! There are some areas where they are pretty common, really cool looking fish!
