Mediterranean Action

[Marwan]

in the rare occasion when i actually hunt in the med....i took a friend and his boat out spearing in the med coast....we found a spot 2km out to sea full of rocks bu quite shalow...i didnt have high hopes, but one hour later i had 2 groupers a sea bass and a sargo on my stringer, my trusty comanche 75 strikes again... i was staying with my father in law, so i was quite proud with the catch and the meal that followed, the larger grouper was cooked in the oven with fresh vegtables (singari style as we call it out here), the rest were giled...yum yum yum.. thought id share
cheers

now hat i think about it maybe this post should be moved to the trip reports section... ah wel i like making the moderators work
cheers

good catch med style, suppose da water was crystal blue, best thing about da med, Im thinking of buying a commanche 75 ive seen one for 85 euro, ive got 100-250 to spend, ive got 2 guns already one 75 one 105, nut im looking for something very powerful, very accurate and good range, any ideas, cheaper da better..any help would help me alot

[Marwan]

if you already have a 75 and a 105, maybe go for a 90 this time...the omer cayman is a good choice for the price range yu have in mind....but my friend spago will persuade you for the seatec gabbiano

Before he says anything, most of it comes from Italy
(he bought some gear online from Finland too, but still it was made in Italy...)

[Marwan]

thats right mostly italian brands, which i buy on the internet from all over the world really , from spain, the states, south africa in one instance from finland, once from estonia , twice directly from italy....

[Marwan]

forgot to mention that the italian government offered me citizenship and an eternal tax exemption

[spaghetti]

and that's a (well deserved) unprecedented privilege: talking in general, italian citizenship and tax exemption are a contradiction in terms...
So when are you moving to Pastaland?

Aye, Spaghetti!
You could then get into the beauty (and that it is ), head for the Suez canal, pick up Marwan, take a left at Sharm El Sheikh and come to show off the boat here!

How's that?
