 The
Blue Water Hunter evolved out of a deep love for spearfishing since
childhood and the purchase of "The Dive Locker", a full service
scuba shop in Santa Barbara, California, by Brian G. Bradley. The
purchase of The Dive Locker included the manufacturing operation
of Deep Thought diving suits. The real interest in The Dive Locker
for Brian Bradley was the challenge of designing the finest commercial
and sport diving suit available. But also developing a store with
the best U.S. and European freediving and spearfishing gear.
"Everyone thought I was crazy to inventory long guns with reels. But actually I was just getting back to my roots in hunting White Sea Bass and Halibut. Diving along the central California coast, we used make-shift guns with fishing reels attached to the barrel to try and hold the larger fish from fighting free. "What happened was the old timers, as well as many younger people, in seeing the much improved gear and its availability through the Dive Locker along with the challenge of breath hold diving really got behind the sport. " Consequently The Blue Water Hunter was born and is still the largest, most successful retail operation of its kind in the world. The formula for The Blue Water Hunter is first the passion for diving, second the knowledge and desire to offer the best pricing and service to our customers. Also, we have a deep stock of inventory to avoid unnecessary waiting for delivery. |
