As a tip for the spearfishing, get into the shallows around the rocks and weed - think 3 or 4 feet of water - stay quite still don’t swim about too much and you’ll find lots of mullet and bass 👍🏼

Yea mate been doing it years, I'm 80 starting to feel my age, still go diving in Egypt, this Wal out at st. Tudwell off Abersock, in the 80's we encounter a 10 ft. Blue shark at the seaward side of the island, not far from this video location. After many years in this fantastic place the sea is getting to cold for me.

@@terrencemay72 I know the area you were spearfishing in very well - amazing to hear about the shark! I know what you mean about the water temperature, it gets to me as well. Saying that, the modern spearfishing-specific wetsuits are very good indeed. They come in two pieces, open cell neoprene inside, top with a built in hood and bottoms with long johns… they will keep you very warm. I’d be very sorry to hear that you had to stop for want of a proper suit! If you’d like any tips for shallow spots you can dive (float!) and catch fish, I’d be very happy to help 😊

@@BR0SE1DON that would be good, if not for me my son would love to know. When I started snorkelling with my mate you couldn't buy a ready made wetsuit , you had to send your measurements and it arrived in a kit form, you had to glue it and then stick a yellow tape on the seams, That war a two piece suit and we had them many years. please leave info of your Wetsuit , regards Terry
