Spearfishing is an old fishing technque that is still widely appreciated today. Traditionally, spearfishing is for shallow waters, but thanks to new technologies and cutting-edge equipment, spearfishers with training and experience can now go deeper. Spearfishing is a popular sport in many parts of the world such as the Mediterranean, the UK, Australia, Korea and the US. However, don't forget to check local regulations aboit spearfishing before going in the water. Indeed, spearfishing is prohibited in some countries like Germany for example and you risk a fine if you use a speargun to catch fish. Some countries also allow spearfishing but with restrictions on the fish you might shoot like carps, gar, etc. So don't forget to check that too. 

Also, security is an important part of this sport. You must be familiar with waves, currents and tides. Don't forget there might be other spearos or swimmers around you, so mind your spearfishing environment before a session.  Be careful when you dive in a sea or ocean where sharks are common. Don't go in the water when the sun is going down or at night. That's when most of the sharks go hunting and you don't want to meet one then. 

It is highly recommended not to dive alone. No one knows what can happen in the water and a spearfishing buddy can simply save your life in case of problem. Also, a diving knife is a must have, not only for the fish, but also because it can come in handy in case of emergency. If you follow these basic rules you will have an amazing time in the water. Safe spearing!
