New to Spearfishing

So I heard about this spearfishing thing and decided it was something I wanted to get into. I did some research, learned what I could in terms of hardware and decided to pick-up some standard issue equipment to start out with. I still need to pick up a few more things such as gloves, socks, long fins, but I at least got the ball rolling. Currently learning everything I can about this sport as well as conditioning myself at the pool. Hopefully I'll get to post pictures from my upcoming trips, soon -- for now, a snapshot of my new threads and stoner device.

Cheers

Welcome aboard!
I have a lot of gear left from my shop.
Let me know what you still need?
Gloves, booties, fins, weights and weightbelt, knife, floatline.
In Monterey.

Just posted pair of fins for sale http://www.norcalkayakanglers.com/index.php?topic=79529.0

Welcome aboard.  Looks like you are gearing up just fine. 

Welcome to NCKA OVillanueva 

Thanks guys! I've already got some stuff on order to complete the set but thanks so much for the offers!

Take a free diving class. Do it right from the start. A lot of misinformation on the internet. Safety first......

For sure, and that gun does look a little big but it may be the picture, 65 to 85cm is ususly the norcal size range.

Dude, that's awesome.  I've been diving for awhile now and you have a better set up than me.  Hell I still use a 5mil surfing wetsuit from my surfshop in Oregon. Partly because I'm a cheap bastard but partly because mine works just fine.  I just got back from timber cove battling the winds on friday.  That's a great place to learn it was one of my first diving trips when I was 10.  Ive got a couple yaks if you wanna go one of these days I'd be happy to put you on some abs(august 1st) and fish.

Wow, thanks for the offer! I may just take you up on that

Thanks for the advice, much appreciated. I've looked into it, actually -- there are a few dive shops in my area that offer the lessons.

Dude, I haven't gone surf fishing in a while but I may be going in the next couple weeks for the striped bass run. A lot of action going on over by OB in SF.
