Well here's the story . A friend invited me to go out , do some trolling first and then do some spearing. He wanted to try out his new boat , a 29 ft century , sweet boat by the way. He got a nice dolfin ans as nothing else bit , we decided to go ahead with the spearing. Started up at about 70, lots of small bonita but not really shootable fish, we spent several hours working the 70 to 90 ft range but only produced one 12 lb mutton two mackarels, 4 triggers, and a white grunt that was abot 10 to 12 pounds too. we kept moving and went to 100 ft and bolo got a 19 pound black , in 70 again I shot a huge cuda that was stuck to the buttom but it took the gun off my hands and it got tangled in a rock and the fish ripped off. I was getting a little frustrated 'cause it seemed like my luck wasn't the best . So we decided to move shallower and when my friend moved away There I see this grouper on the open by a little plant. I breathed up without moving a couple times , take the snorkel off my mouth and start descent without kicking, the fish sees me , I hide the gun and try to stay straight so it doesn't see me whole , and pull the gun straight at it reall slow aim to the head and when i'm about there it tries to haul ass , I take the shot and as it was already in motion I hit it a little back . Not a bad shot but it hits the bone and the shaft doesn't go thruogh . At this poit It rips de gun off my hand But I don't pull 'cause it's fighting pretty hard to get away and as the shaft is not holding to good.... bolo was way far , he cant hear me to take a second shot so I let it get a little tired and the I take a breath and go for it without grabbing the gun, at th lest moment I get the line and in one move stick the finger in the hole with the shaft and pull sticking my hand in the soft part of the gills , then I realize it was not a 20 pounder but much more hell it was 49 . Of course the shaft is bent and it made me miss another mutton later . Hell ,it didn't matter....right?
Tis another pick with other of the fish. And one with the shot.
