wetsuit, is it important afterall?

[Granitu]

is it important to wear a wet suit when diving in terms of spearing a fish? i need an idea as big fish are unwary to get in close shot range even if you perform techniques like aspetto? any ideas ( particularly to simon .. i know he's an experienced diver)

[Simon G]

yes it is very important to use a wetsuit the ones i use are the omer med mimetic when operating in shallow water (aspetto, aguato)
and the ocean mimetic when i am doing open water or deep water
the advantage i found is that your outline becomes confused with the bottom (or the surface depending on what you do) and the fish cant recognize you

10x i think i need to invest in one... how much do they cost i 'm pretty restriced on my budget right now

[Simon G]

they range from lm 85 to lm235 depending on what you want 
a good cheap one is the topsub  it seels for lm 85 and is mimetic
the ones i use are omer which retail at around lm 135 but he will give it to you at lm 100
if you intend using it allot i would go for an XX1 custom around lm 130
you adapt the colours to your technique
