Jellies seemed a little less today than yesterday.
Water garbage about the same
Just got 1 hog today but saw maybe 4 or 5 in the 8-14in length.
Had another school of mac swim by. But these stayed just outside of my gun range. I may have to switch back to a longer gun as these macs have learned most of my mac tricks. :attack2: :fishswim:
Sorry for falling behind posting Broward Beach Conditions. I got a new 32yr old skinny, beautiful Russian GF that is keeping me very BUSY :bed:
Maybe I can get a picture posted of her with fish or the triathlon swim or bikini section later
you may beat her in the tri's but it seems shes getting the better of you at home. thanks for the reports, I now work about 5 minutes from the beach so hopefully I can start diving the lighthouse point/deerfield area in the evenings. Hau, if you'd like, I will try to subsidize your thread while you're "busy"
Is that Olga?
Is that Olga?
I miss olga did you scare her off :rolleyes1:
Shoredive half way down south today,,10-130,, got out to the second and found a new spot that looked PERFECT for hogs,, I followed it for 2 hourrs and didnt see a single hog,, which sucks..
anyways eventually found some very big toros swimming against the current and I wound up with two of the biggest ones. Thats all i saw in the way of fish today,, but now i have ceviche which is great cause i cant afford to buy meat anymore
toros?
haha, we've been through this.
I thought we did but didn't remember the outcome. Bigeye or glasseye something? Catalufa in Cuba.

yeah thats all true also
at my work we call them catalufas as well,
and japsw when there are other fish around I ignore them as well but to be honest I find it better than mangroves or similar sized snappers just a little less yeild.. I could tell you the ceviche it made was hogfish and youd believe it.

going to have to try it, to be honest I only shoot mangos if they are over 18-20 inches, not a fan of cleaning small fish unless its hog
Marco--NOT Olga. Olga is happy married last time I talked to her
Wish my Russian lady speared like Olga:D
Though my lady looks like the blond Russian freedive lady on the video here :thumbsup2:

Great eating fish. An icon in Venezuela!

Nice looking dish.
That dish looks awesome, great picture, I can almost taste everything by just looking at it.
Glasseye snapper, bigeye is the tuna.
when baking or steaming fish that score down the side is sooo impt.....so many skip that and have bland fish as a result...
looks delicious
thanks for the pic Marco, that does look amazing
Very good flacky, moist, white meat with a "Crab/lobster" touch taste. Very few bones and the skin comes all apart after cooking. Don't need to scale. Very good also over the barbeque. The skin avoids it from sticking. Must try it.
In Venezuela, line fishermen get big ones 3-5 pounds. Here in the Caribbean I haven't see them bigger than 1.5 - 2 pounds.
I would say one of the best pan sized fish I've ever ate.
