Easy Spearfishing

Member since December 2017 Playa Del Carmen, Mexico
Background
Captain Ruben Canfield is a biologist by profession and a true fan of nature and especially the ocean. He grew up deeply intertwined with hunter and fisher culture in his area, and that is his main reason for staying at Playa del Carmen. He chose spearfishing as his fishing path because it matches his beliefs in sustainability and catching only fish that are meant to be eaten. Ruben looks forward to teaching young and old anglers about spearfishing and sustainability, on the sandy, gorgeous beaches of Mexico.
