As a diver since 1976
The one thing that works against the bass for spear fishing
Bass being a real predatory fish often follow divers around
Slightly off in the distance looking for what the diver may stir up
The diver himself becomes the lure
I have often “kneeled” on the bottom and watch a school of them circling me
Which I think puts the bass at a disadvantage
Black bass, Cod, Wolf fish, Haddock, Lobster are all fish you have to look for
I.e.. Hunt. Stripers hear you and hover around you about 20-40 ft away if in the area
Stripers stalking instinct have been one of those things I have always enjoyed about
My dive experience here in New England I have often broken up small lobsters
And watch them dart by me scooping them up!
