Underwater Hunter Course

 

underwater hunter specialty courseWe have added an underwater hunter course to our schedule, taking place on Friday Sept. 11th in Ocean City on the OC Dive Boat.  If you've never had a chance to spearfish but want to learn, this will be a great opportunity to give it a try and get some practice.

 

Spearfishing is actually a very environmentally friendly and sustainable way to fish.  Fishing in this way allows you to only effect the fish you are going to catch - as opposed to line fishing where you have to bring up any fish that bites your hook.  You also have control over how many fish you catch, so you can take only the fish you plan to eat. 

 

In this course we'll teach you how to identify fish that are good to catch, use both a pole spear and a spear gun, and clean and prepare caught fish.
