Spear Fishing Fresh Water
Why are fresh water fish so much more skittish than salt water fish?
I've never spear fished in the salt so I have no experience. But I have watched a ton of videos and the divers swim up to within 10' or 15' of the fish and shoot it.
Last year a friend and I decided we'd spear fish in Russell. The water was a good color and about as clear as you can get around here. My friend owned the equipment so we dove in, split up and started working our way around off the bank. I know you aren't supposed to shoot game fish. But they don't even need that law cause you aren't going to get close enough to one to shoot it. Even catfish and carp are too skittish to spear fish for, at least in the daylight. The only fish we could get anywhere near was little finger long bream.
The guy that was with me has spear fished in the salt and he said it was just weird how you couldn't get anywhere near enough to a fish in freshwater. He said he'd never seen fish so skittish, but he had never tried it in freshwater either.
There's got to be a reason they are skittish, but I haven't figured out yet. They seem way more aware of their surroundings and way more alert. This makes me think they are more "intelligent" or whatever the right word would be.
We finally resorted to flinging lures at the bank. If not we would have come out empty handed.
