Many people spear on scuba here in CA, it's quite common. I agree though- not a great deal of "sport" there (but I have serious issues with the whole concept of killing in the name of Sport anyway.) Abalone collecting is strictly prohibited on scuba…

If that's how it is then it's disgraceful. You cannot call spearfishing on scuba a sport by any definition of the word. What skill must be possessed to ambush a fish. I am further concerned with how many of these spearshafts have powerheads attached…

What surprised me more than anything is the fact that the 'rescuing' diver let a speargun go in order to get to grips with the Frisby! Is hunting on SCUBA allowed in Florida?

Just saw this clip about a nurse shark with a ring around the gills from Jupiter, Florida. I'm sure the photo/video people will have mixed reactions to some of the commentary :) http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=6269718n&tag=api Cheers, Maria
