anyone go to the GLSPS show(Spearfishing Lecture) this weekend?

As with anything tht is a little out of the mainstream-  Attitudes relax with popularity.  Talk to a city hall about spearing or bowfishing and instantly their mindset is tha 10 people will die every time you hit the water to do these activities.  The more pressure they get, the more they are forced to investigate their concerns and find that they are overreaching.  Some examples that come to mind:

Nitrox/ certain agencies participating/not participating- in the early years

Diving W/O a permit in Minneapolis lakes now legal.

Bowfishing/ Coyote hunting is legal after dark now(best times to get em)

Old laws hold a lot of people up.  If you want something- keep raising hell!
