JBS, did the cuda hit you full speed or did it stop short? What happened?

Beach diving for me the number is one. In the water it's hard to talk so you have to concentrate on diving. Two divers can cooperate well enough to be able to do pretty much anything that can come up. But I haven't really done three people too often so maybe it's good too. When I do go beach diving I usually go alone.

Boat diving I'm undecided between 2 or 3. Three people total is logically better, it's all that's needed if the boat needs to be driven there's never less than a pair of divers in the water. However 4 feels more like a party. 5 is doable and can be nice, but it can also be a mess. Any more is too much for my taste.

What's your take? I'm expecting some varying opinions.

Maybe it was trying to mate?

F'n stupid to play with a tiger shark. I'm not letting one of those animals near me if I can help it.

No, 3mm will not fit through. These are for use with the thin white Dyneema only.

What! you made a wood handle for the epitome of pneumatic spearguns!

Nice work. Do you think it's going to match aesthetically?

I shot it at the Dania eurojacks, almost took my gun and float, luckily the gun handle got caught on a huge sleeping sea turtle which gave me time to catch up to it. After some cleaning it played good.

Better late than never, I just saw O'ahu still get fish. Nice video. I liked the narration, a little bit of instruction, a little bit of humor, the personalities of the divers seem to come through. Video quality is very good. I like how the structure of the video was by fish species, alternating between pelagics and reef fish.

That deserves it's own thread

so search the forums (gear section, diving section etc)

:finger:

It's easier to use the search function than to scour the forum like you're trying to find a hogfish off Dania beach

Thanks Monster. Seems to me to be a sort of escape mechanism, delusions of grandeur or some such thing.

Quote from pantoja

Dan , i'll give you an example so you can get the meaning. I had a friend in cuba , we kind of grew together in the neighbourhood. one day my uncle sees me hanging with him and he calls me not to trust him and try stay away from him because his dad is a comunist and all and if he finds out anything he can give me away . I tell him he is not like his dad and the he tells me recuerda que hijo de gato caza raton.

Comparable to the English "like father like son" or "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree". Although the Cuban version is more punchy, which is one of the reasons I love the language. It also seems to have a more negative connotation. Is it ever used in praise?

What does that mean monster?

I know what it means literally but please explain the significance.

Beautiful cubera Virgili.

What is the special feature of your friend's home made pneumatic?

Double knockout.

Welcome to the forum Kev.

I thought the same thing. You can cross check the names of the animals and pull up some images from google. I already knew more than a couple of them. Now you know where the Mexican hairless chihuahua came from

Muy interesante, gracias. No es barato pero tampoco es caro, me refiero para el consumidor. En cuba se vendia el pescado en la calle a $1 la libra.
