Dude, I'd get a different pot!

On second thought I'm sure it will boil on that propane burner I have we used to make the weights.

I'm in, let's hear the details on catching them. When I see their holes I just dig with my hands. Emil saying they don't bite is reassuring. These holes are only distinguishable right at the water line.

Will oil boil in a pot on the BBQ? We can do them at my place after.

Thanks but not so in this case, it's all in the timing.

So what's it like sticking a knife into a flounder? Apart from the "man the hunter" ego trip is it a better option than using a short flopper shaft with a wood grip? Is the interesting aspect of it making due with what you just happened to have (a knife) as opposed to planning to be more productive?

I always thought that the only flounder we get here is peacock flounder, which is useless IMO being small and having too many fine hairlike spines, because I've never seen any other kind. People say though that we have another good flounder. Any pics of the ones you got Jeff?

Peacock flounder

Sounds great, thanks Emil. It would be fun to feed to some unsuspecting guests saying it's a type of exotic shrimp and once they're thoroughly enjoying it tell them what they're eating <img src= " height="23" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x">

Has anyone ever taken a fish with a knife? In our waters the only sea creatures I've seen that let you get that close are nurse sharks, lobster, octopus, turtles, flounder and moray eel. Maybe a few more I forget but all not very high on the preferred list. Some hogs look like they might give you a chance too. I think I'd feel very achieved if I were able to pull it off.

BTW can they bite?

Good post, who would've thought! Except for Pantoja..

Just to make sure this is what we're talking about.

I have no problem eating something that is considered trash by someone else so that's not an issue. But they seem kinda small. Do you look for big ones only? Do you leave the head on? I can't imagine how every part of their body becomes edible. I have to try it, looks appetizing in your pic

You have to be kind of intelligent to come up with these brain fucking ideas, how do they do it? http://www.peta.org/sea_kittens/about.asp

Jim, are you really a noob? Your two shnappers from Sat are just as good as Marcos! Reminds me of a quote I like from the original iron lady, Golda Meir "Don't be humble... you're not that great" <img src= " class="smiley" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x" height="23" width="23" loading="eager" data-tooltip="biggrin" aria-label="biggrin">

Most of you have probably seen it but there's some interesting fish here http://spearfishing.world/gene…-you-shoot-this-fish.html

It's eleven o'clock so it must be just finishing now. I don't even know what channel that is over here. What did you see?

I was told that as long as I don't shoot cuda the sharks keep their distance!

"y no te tires un peo"... "tienes que darle en la cabeza" you guys are funny <img src= " height="23" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x"> hope to make it to PR one day.

Marco, your PR snappers always look so well fed. The mackerels, hogs and permit all look like something we can get here. But those snappers.. Good to see and wish!

I wonder how I'd do over there.

We were doing around 45'. If it was fishy it would've been OK, otherwise like I said I tend to lose focus.

There's nothing wrong with that approach in theory. But how long would you be able to stay focused drifting and making blind drops on the reefs we did on Sat never being able to come back to the same spot twice? I'd say if current is another added factor to the bad vis maybe it's time to call it a day or at least take a break until it subsides.
