Hi to all the veterans of fishing and diving,
      My one new year resolution is to get into this thrilling sport of spearfishing and diving.  I sincerely seeking for guidance and training opportunities from all you experienced divers and fisherman to lead me into this great sport in a manner that's both fun and safe. 
      I have some basic gears and a Kayak, ready to go out to observe how this 'business' gets done in reality.
Thank you and dive safe.

Welcome to NCKA.  Keep an eye on the "Hookups and Fishing Reports" forum for future hookups and joint them.
