    Whole kit so far less than $200, most expensive the weight belt and weights. What else should I look out for?
    Will look out for better fins to use with boots.

    Got plenty of cooking and cooling devices. Should get an ice bin though.

    Have pretty much the same kit for gadgette #2, she is really keen. Might need to bring 'Betsie" to sort out any surfie types that hang around.

    What you need is a good bugger with some handy spots, not a couple of cheeky buggers taking the piss ( made me laugh though)

    Gadget your sorted, grab 30 - 40ft of hardy line a float and a cheap sack or catch bag. The rest is diving time.

    Think I could easily rummage that gear out of the garage. Have floats, para cord, builders line, heavy braid, ... Might look out for catch bags.

    Do you use a dive flag?

    You want cord or thin rope that not tangle and not soak up water , dive flag not used normally . Have only seen them in shops but never in use . Orange float seems to be the norm . Can get them with a wee mast and flag on top . I'm guessing not used as they would be sure to get stuck in weed and bull calp , rocks etc .
    I'm talking kaiks in shallow or around reefs , where there shouldn't be boats . Don't no what's the norm in other parts of country ?

    Never never ever fire a speargun on dry land. Tried it once. When the spear reached the end of the line (I was further from the grassy bank than I thought) the spear came flying back at a phenomenal speed
