Cheers Mate, it was only in shallow water, just to the left of where the waves break. Good luck hunting, might see you out there on day.

Re: lost gun la jolla

i had it attached to a fish i was cleaning, loaded and hanging incase something came through in the meantime. the floper must have caught on some sea grass and pulled the stringer through the fish, (clearly was not rigged well enough) by the time i felt the weight difference it was gone, fell into the gras and was covered i am guessing(i never saw it fall).Tthere was a bit of swell, I dove around for a while but was not sure exactly where to look, after a while i drifted off the spot and was all turned around and just gave up as i had no idea where to go back too. pertty expensive lesson to learn... top top it off i came home today and had to through the fish away as the fridge had gotten turned off during the day(who knows which bright spark did that)..... anyone interested in some $500 chum?

Re: lost gun la jolla

I'm going out tomorrow near seal cove. I'll definitely keep an eye out for you. I read on the san diego fishing site that 2 guys were surf fishing at torrey pines, and up walks a diver with a speargun in one hand and a 20lb YT in the other, said he shot it almost point blank only 25 yards outside the surf near scripps pier.
