When choosing a place to hunt, you should know the habits of fish, their habitats, as well as the depths at which you can meet certain representatives of reservoirs and rivers. An important step in preparing for spearfishing is the selection of equipment. A long rifle is more suitable for an open area, because it is not very convenient to handle it in the grass. Nowadays, air guns are mainly used, but there are amateurs who use a rifle with an elastic band (they work on the principle of a slingshot).
You should definitely have a scuba diving suit in your arsenal. It will save you from the cold even in the cold season. Scuba gear is not necessary, most hunters dive with a regular snorkel in one go. Spearfishing is relevant all year round. However, it is better not to dive in winter without special training and skills. And in the warmer months, almost anyone can try to shoot fish at shallow depths. This is a very interesting and very exciting activity. Thanks to which the hunter keeps fit. You can also dive for fish at night using an underwater flashlight. When you point the flashlight at the fish, you will see that it is standing still and it seems that it is sleeping deeply – this allows you to get as close to it as possible and make an accurate shot.
When diving underwater, you see different fish: small, medium, large, noble and not so much. Therefore, you decide for yourself which one you want to shoot. More experienced hunters dive to great depths, under reeds, under various driftwood – this makes it difficult to move and shoot accurately. But that's the whole point. Moreover, very large specimens of fish, such as carp, catfish, and walleye, often hide in such places. If you hit a large fish unsuccessfully, you have to deal with it quite seriously. For comparison, if you shoot a catfish weighing 20-30 kg, with an unsuccessful shot, the catfish resists and it is quite difficult to pull it to the surface, and if all this happens in thick reeds, the hunter does not always manage to cope. And if the weight of the fish is more than 50 kg, it remains only to assume how such a confrontation will end. Very often, hunters got rid of the harpoon and released large specimens due to the inability to cope with large fish.
There were cases when a gun was also thrown. It's rare, of course, but it happens. There are also underwater hunting competitions, which are no less interesting than sport fishing. Here you need to be able to navigate underwater, be in good physical shape, and know where which fish can hide. Today, this type of hunting is very popular both abroad and in the CIS countries.
