"This authoritative book deserves more than the 5 star maximum that Amazon allows.Mike McGuire has been spear fishing all his life and has shared his experience with us to create a manual of great use to people who are taking up this sport, but also to people like me who have never speared a fish, but are passionately interested in diving and in fish.This book emphasizes safety, and I would urge any prospective spear fisher to read and carefully follow Mike's advice on safety.Mike covers fitness in great detail, including useful exercises to improve your fitness. He also gives his ideas about equipment.As Mike says, spear fishing has been done for thousands of years. At first this would have been a way of getting food, but as with many human activities it has developed into a sport. The book caused me to consider who the first spear fishers were. Although I referred to spear fishing as a human activity, the first spear fishers were almost certainly not human. Bonobos, a type of ape, will catch fish with their hands and have been observed to make and use very primitive spears. The first spear fishers were almost certainly an earlier near human creature." - Steve Challis (Australia)

Book excerpt: An account of some of the wildest, most extreme sportsmen in recent memory, The Helldivers' Rodeo introduces a group of New Orleans scuba-diving clubs that dive from off-shore oil platforms in order to spear the giant fish that congregate around these artificial barrier reefs. Armed only with spear-guns, polyester dive-suits from the disco era, and a drunken sense of invulnerability, the members of different scuba/fishing clubs get together annually to compete. The winner, at the end of the week-long contest, will have bagged the biggest (and frequently deadliest) fish. Past winners include a 138 lb. amberjack fish speared by John Hagman in 1993; a 495 lb. sand tiger shark nailed by Stan Smith in '94; and a 127 lb. yellowfin tuna skewered by David Dauzat in '98.

Download or read book The Rewards of Scuba Hunting written by George Young and published by Author House. This book was released on 2013-02 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The planetary oceans are filled with bizarre and exotic, yet delicious creatures! Over 40 years of frequent diving have taught the author how to catch, clean, and cook exceptional ocean fare, from worldwide slimy sea cucumbers to the Northwest s highly valued giant geoduck clams, and from huge Alaskan crabs to tasty Australian abalones. Various diving adventure stories (sharks! sea snakes! octopus! wolf eels!), plus 50 color photos, 18 YouTube videos, and 23 of his favorite recipes, pass that uniquely valuable knowledge on to the reader. He describes how the pure wonderment of being lost in constellations of moon jellyfish, or being blinded by the darkness of swimming underneath giant rays or whales, can create the more subtle dangers of distraction and disorientation. Scuba diving is by far the most fun and efficient way to harvest all types of seafood seldom found in stores or restaurants. Any true fresh seafood fan or scuba diver will certainly love this absorbing book of undersea and culinary exploits.
