Dive team? Rallied? So let me get this straight...you needed to call in backup instead of answering my one question (which you still haven't answered)? Look at you guys here, what is this a cheerleader locker room?
Do you think it was more responsible to publically air this issue to all those against the sport of spearfishing instead of taking a more direct means: by calling up the dive shop and/or the FWC?
Me, I would have called the FWC followed by calling the dive shop to notify them of doing such in reaction to the non-compliance with the law. That way, things get resolved much quicker than here, and the anti-fishing groups like PETA and PEW TRUST do not get this photo in their hands to use against us spearfishermen and women, 99.99% of who abide by the laws and regulations with responsibility.
But you guys know better, I guess. If its one thing I learned from this scubaboard forum a long long time ago, is that you cannot change the opinion of the clique' bandwagon mindset, no matter how much logic or reasoning is used. Look at the Spearboard forum: not one person answered the valid questions I posed.
That is all. Photo is down because someone called the dive shop. Big surprise!
