The Lighter Trick - Help Prevent Your Mask From Fogging Up
Posted by Venture Wetsuits on
Every time you get a new mask it fogs up, why? Fogging of your mask comes from when your body heat in your masks mixes with the outside cold water on your lens. When they are manufactured they have a thin layer of silicone on the lens which by doing these simple tricks should help reduce your fogging problem. However I do recommend you still use a defogger before every time you enter the water even when you change spots. Disclaimer: This is completely optional and do at your own risk. BE VERY CAREFUL around the mask silicone. We are...

Superbowl is around the corner & I needed some grinds to put on the table so why not Yellow Eyed Kole? Kole is a tang fish that hangs out in schools that are easy to hunt and taste great in the frying pan. We got some to eat and some to giveaway and at the end of the day nothing but a great time with Capt. Gary!

The weather in Hawaii had been windy, rainy and just not the greatest for spearfishing. High winds can cause swells that could prohibit you from seeing your dive partner and potential surface currents. Rainy weather could lead to run off streams into the ocean which will create murky water that sharks enjoy hunting in. Now I understand, sometimes you only have that one day to get in because of life priorities and I'm guilty of it too, but I just wanted to share a few websites I use and monitor DAILY before the day of the dive. Weather conditions constantly...
