Spear Fishing

Salam,

This is a forum where people who like to 'free dive' and spear fish can chit chat. I personally just got hooked on this sport not too long ago and been loving it ever since. I usually go up north around Al Maruna area and sometimes visit Khor Al Udeid. I've caught some pretty descent fish there, but I would like to know more about this sport and possibly find out some more good fishing spots. So if anyone has got some ideas or spots they'd like to share, I'm all ears.

Salam,
