    hey spear cuba do you use an orange kayak and an old school spora sub gun?


    Hey, nop I don't have a yak I swim out, My first gun was a spora sub instinct and used it till like a month ago. Right now I use an air gun. They are awsome!

    me an scott at Meade today.
    Scott may have got a PB hog and 4 other hogs plus other fish
    I got 5 hogs then went mac hunting an got 3 macs, 4 dogs an 1 porgey
    today was our best day this week

    Went out today with Joekahuna in the 954 area.
    0900-1300
    Water was flat and warm
    Viz 35'
    current 0-1knot


    it was just one of those perfect days, haven't seen conditions this good on a shore dive (no kayak) in a long time.


    First reef was dead.
    Second reef a few hogs.
    Third reef things got good, fish after fish. I shoot a hog as I'm pulling my float in I let the fish hang below me to call in other bigger better things for joekahuna. Nothing should up I stringed him up. Then I see another hog, got him. Load my gun back up start head to the float to stringup and a big mutton is looking at me with that (do I run do I stay look) he turns away about to bolt but it was to slow I hit him. Shot wasn't perfect let him let the gun go and tried to swim up to him and grab him. Then head back to my float with a hog and a 22" mutt.
    The rest was just finding hogs and mak's and another mutt.


    Also the big hog story, around 24"-26". Went after him for a good 5min's. He Holed up, I took a long shot before he would have time to get to far in. It was kindda like a cave system where I would loose him if I didn't take it. Hit his tail and all he'll broke out. Call joekahuna over, after 10min's of trying to get my shaft out joekahuna finds it kindda coming out of another hole on the other side of that section of rock and tells me there's no fish on WTF. The hog pulled my whole shaft and shooing line into a cave and out another hole the and gets awa. this made me very sad/mad. We serched the cave system for the fish couldn't find it and had to give up. It was a beautiful hog.


    iPhone picture, for size the small hog is 13" and the big mutton is 22"

    Dosen't look good from here.
    Is green water as far out as I can see.
    Still 2 foot waves coming onto the beach right now 11-23 at1145am
    Today is the best day since 10-18 though, so maybe tomorrow will be better than today
    If I get a chance later today I may just take mask /fins /snorkel and check out the beach viz here at the house

    mca00176---you ain't missin anything.
    No one has really been in the water since 10-17 because of the high wind and high seas
    My peeps in the Keys just said to was pouring down rain there
    I just got in from a therapy swim off my beach with m/f/s and the viz is like 10f, maybe :(
    Anyway, if you do good enough in school there will be many days for you to spear in the future:)

    out from meade and north a bit. vis was garbage so i paddled on and on hoping it would get better. eventually over patch reef in about 30+ feet water it was a little better. ocean was like a lake early part of day which was nice. Got one mutton and a few smaller schoolmasters. Mutton was 18 inch
