nice video

I just checked my watch and Nv 7th is go time. Who's coming to crab, pick mussels, and dive for ab/fish?

Great video clip!  Feel like I'm next to the hunter    Thanks for the link Merv.  If I'm not travel that week, I'll join you for the ab/fish.

Great find!  Loved the video!!!  Guess that guy got stung by a jellyfish??? 

wow, that was cool.... i guess he doesnt need much air, he was sitting on the bottom like it was nothing..

I need to get into this, but i need some good fishy shallow waters to fish in!

Cool vid Merv!  I'm moving on the 7th and 8th, but will be off the following week.  Let me know if you will be out this way, I plan to crab and ab.

I hadn't seen that one yet.  My brother is in the tiger striped camo and our friend kirby in the green camo.  If you didn't notice, that was pee coming out of kirbys wetsuit when he was standing on the rock in the beginning of the video.  He is a sick man. 

Those guys have some great underwater adventures.  Here's his latest:

OH so thats why I get so many snags and loose rigs when I am fishing....So cool topography underwater. I can't wait to give it a try. Like Porky said I need the kiddy pool to start out.

Does anybody know what they are using for a camera?

I don't know what they are using.  You can purchase underwater housing for your camera/camcorder from $50  to $1000 (depth rating from 60-200 ft).  However, if it's a waterproof compact digital, I believe the only ones you can use beyond 12-15 ft are Olympus Tough 8000 or Canon Powershot D10 (both waterproof to 33 feet).  Olympus has HD video.  I have a Canon SLR that I'd love try, but even with underwater housing good to 60ft like this one ( http://www.adorama.com/EWUA.html), I think I'd still be afraid of getting it wet and losing a few thousand dollars.

Actually, forget shooting video, I just want to try freediving and experience it directly.

From another thread on the forum... I learned about this sub-$300 HD camera that comes with a housing that has a depth rating of up to 180 feet / 60 meters, and the sample video looks very good:

Moat Creek , just south of Pt. Arena is a good kiddie pool for beginners . Went from rockpicking abs to the real deal there , was very comfy even when I dove alone . Yeah I know diving alone is a no-no , some places actually are lke a kiddie pool .
