Interview with Francisco Loffredi Today's interview is with Francisco Loffredi from Rio De Janeiro! A life time in the water and a culture that celebrates spearfishing has shaped Francisco and the way he dives today, from his early days being a commercial spearfisherman to his development into competition and trophy spearfishing, we chat about the reasons that he's changed his approach, how competition and sport fishing can actually help keep the sea healthy and some of the hilarious stories he's had a long the way! An absolute legend with the consistent spearfishing performance to back it up, you are going to learn a lot from him! If you speak Portuguese then check out his podcast: Sangue No Convés!
