Fun with TBAR speargun prototype
TweetHere is the Tbar speargun prototype test video. This speargun was built for entertainment value alone. I do believe this sort of off the wall design helps me rethink my spearguns. Spearfishing with this prototype is quite feasible though. I don’t thing spearfishermen would hesitate one second to bring this thing spearfishing. The prototype was [...]

As you may know, in [...]

GoPro en mode 1080p ou MP4
TweetL’ouverture de la pêche à Montréal, c’est surtout l’ouverture printanière de la pêche au doré. Il y a bien une saison hivernale. Il est possible de le chasser jusqu’au 31 mars si vous avez une bonne combinaison et que vous savez où ils se cachent pendant l’hiver. Pour ma part, je n’en vois pas souvent [...]

Ice freediving
TweetFreediving under the ice has attracted a lot of attention. These pictures are the most talked about. Even in this environment you can find breathing holes though sometimes only the snorkle passes.
