Be careful approaching someone's set like that. Right or wrong, people can get real nasty over someone messing with their rigs. This ain't Kansas....
Hank is absolutely right. In Cuba at least such traspass could turn out deadly. I don't support the practice and I'm glad you saved those turtles but just like Hank I advised you to be VERY careful.

Nice catch. The ones with the hint of yellow look like a hybrid b/w a mutton and a lane snapper. I am sure they taste great.

It's a shame the pathos footpockets have the issues Dan has mentioned. Luckily I've never experienced any issue with them. I absolutely love my blade/footpocket combination which I bought from Dan back when he carried the pathos. I really enjoy how light the fins are. I only dive a handful of times per year so my experience with such pockets my not be an accurate representation of the pathos true performance or dependability. There was a thread by Dan where he compared the footpockets side by side including their weight, it may be outdated but you should check it out anyways, it has tons of great information. In my opinion you should try as many footpockets as possible, like they said before: what fits you comfortably may be completely different from what fits others.

Wow, orcas are really on a league of their own. Chasing seals is one thing but chasing and capturing a full grown dolphin is just insane. I can't help but to feel a bit sorry for the outnumbered dolphin. Amazing animals for sure.

In the 7 pic i gess this place is piedra alta?
Could be but highly unlikely, there are many similar areas around the north coast. I used to love going to "Piedra alta" what a coool place that is for diving/spearing, hook and lining you name it.

wow, that picture sure holds some memories.

Very nice indeed
-
man, that's some awesome fishing up there. when you get back here can you bring some of that fish to try it ?
Better yet, put some time aside and come up here around the same time next year and catch your very own. You can crash at my place.

Well, these pics were taken during the shrimp/halibut and ling opener this past weekend. The trip lasted a total of 3 days (Thursday, Friday and Saturday) and everything lined up perfectly even the weather if you can believe that. The ocean was literally like a lake (rare occurrence around here). The crew members were Dave (boat captain), his twins and yours truly. First thing was the shrimping which has a quota of 80/person per day. These are known as spot prawns and apparently their numbers are very healthy, this is probably to the insane regulations the state has on all fisheries and game stocks. All the shrimping was done inside Puget sound which is just a huge bay. We hit the water around 6 am, depth ranged between 300-250 ft, we dropped four pots and as soon as we were done dropping the forth one we headed back to check the first one. The bay looked like it was being invaded by hundreds of small vessels. Everybody with a boat was out there trying to get their quota which made boating around and identifying your pots quite interesting. We limited out by 9:00 am with our best pot having 213 prawns. After that was cleaning time and today as I write this report, the wife is cooking the first batch. mmmmm..... I can taste them already.
Next trip was to a place called La Push, a small fishing community with outstanding views and tiny population part of one of the local native reservations. Some of you may be familiar with this area since some of the scenes in the "Twilight" series were filmed there. We got to the place Wednesday night around 11: 00 pm, dropped the boat on the water, found parking for the expedition and trailer and called it a night. Captain slept in the boat and me and the others crashed in the back of the ford expedition in sleeping bags. We were up by 5:00 ready to tackle the day. We left the marina and 32 miles later we got to the fishing grounds. The target species were halibut and ling cod. You can only keep 1 halibut and two ling cods per day. Once again we limited out relatively early even though the competition was atrocious out there with all the other anglers. There must have been easily 200 other boats trying to accomplish the same thing. Once the coolers were filled we headed close to shore to continue the slaying of black sea bass or black rock fish. These you can keep 12 per day and once you find the school they are relatively easy to catch. Long story short, we limited out all three days with all the permissible species taken. After everything was filleted I alone must have ended up with at least 60 pounds of fresh clean fish. Here are a few pictures of the trip, I also have some video that I need to edit and post but to be hones it was all taken with my cell and I don't really have any video experience so I'll try but can't promise anything. Enjoy.

The darker Jack looks like a travely (Spelling). Looks like you are having fun.thank you for sharing that video. Just b careful fighting a fish at the end of your dive it's not worth it.
