you look so cold in the yak pic!!

that is a great dive report and the fungus looks delicious, thank for sharing that :beer1:

thought this one was interesting especailly when taking the fishing regulations into account and applying that to this quote

Pedantry and mastery are opposite attitudes toward rules. To apply a rule to the letter, rigidly, unquestioningly, in cases where it fits and in cases where it does not fit, is pedantry... To apply a rule with natural ease, with judgment, noticing the cases where it fits, and without ever letting the words of the rule obscure the purpose of the action or the opportunities of the situation, is mastery. -George Polya, professor of mathematics (1887-1985)

Every one of us is precious in the cosmic perspective. If a human disagrees with you, let him live. In a hundred billion galaxies, you will not find another. -Carl Sagan, astronomer and writer (1934-1996)

carl sagan is a pretty impressive guy

looking forward to the report

Quote from Marco

Here in PR I buy "Filete de res en posta" when they have it in special at the supermarkets. It sells normally for 9$/pound, but you find it for 3.00 US$/Pound when in special. It comes vacuum packed, you can buy 3 or 4 of them and keep them in the freezer. Season it just with salt right before cooking. You'll be amazed how good it is. Lomillo is also good, but filete is the best.

In Venezuela we eat it with yuca and "guasacaca", which is a local type of salad prepared like a blend of guacamole and pico de gallo.

Of course, the meat MUST be medium rare.

c'mon Marco, rare is okay sometimes too

Welcome Ihab-

I think what HAU is sayign is the line that RA keeps giving about how they have it figured out and will be releasing it soon...I'll be holding my breath until then should make me a great diver

Quote from Don Paul

Welcome Alfredo, Great munch of guys here, some from your homeland.
Cheers, Don Paul

i love to cook over fire as well..some of my favorite methods involves blanching a large banana leaf in boiling water and then using it to wrap up a fish that is stuffed whole with lovely things like garlic and lemon...as the leaf dries the fish first steams itself in the leaf, then the leaf burns away and the fish is just a little grilled.

I also love to cook steak on the grill, rub w salt an olive oil and just as marco said, let the outside forma a nice crust and them cut and finish to each diner's taste...which should all be rare or medium rare:)

Quote from psychobilly

The guy is an ass period. The get all brave and shit behind a keyboard but I bet they wont say stuff like that to your face. Actually I don't care about a world record, I don't have nothing to prove to anyone, especially since I'm probably the worst freediver in this forum. I only dive to about 40 feet and do most of my spearing in 10-20. But believe me I caught my fair share of big fish.

don't get down on yourself like that...Art Pinder, who could be argued as one of the best spearos ever, famously said when asked about how deep he dives, "as shallow as I can to get fish" we aren't freedivers who push our limits against meters...the fish test us..I say you are one of the best spearos on here if you can fill you plate in 20ft when others cant

hahaha...i am always pointing at fish in aquariums...with bad intent

you know you are a spearo when you hear of a hurricane warning and your first thought is "this is gonna really ruin the vis"

you groan about getting up for work but jump out of bed before dawn to go and get in cold water on any weekend day you can
