    Solo today, yak freedive spearfishing.
    Water is warm, viz was good, no rain and not many boaters today.
    I only saw 2 shootable macks and 2 shootable hogs all day, that i put in the cooler.
    Also saw several eels and turtles today. I saw 2 lion fish in 40fsw but my ET gun is NOT the gun for lionfish, so I'll have to figure out an easy way to spear them

    Solo today with great weather and sea conditions.
    Went to an area that is hunted by lots of spearos, so the grouper and big mutton I saw were VERY educated an I couldn't get within spear range of them.
    I did find a Drum and 15in hog that missed prior spearo education, so they went into the cooler :)
    LOTS and LOTS of beach buns hangin out today :naughty:

  • FS: UW digital camera

    Dan--No, I'm not giving up spearin until they pull my dead, gray fingers off my gun. :)
    Spearing has been a major part of my life since 1975 and I even am planing my retirement years someplace with warm clear waters, big dumb fish and young native ladies who like to earn an easy American dollar or to. :thumbup:


    PS--I'm selling the Panasonic FX37 cause I already have 4 cameras.

    LOTS of FWC presence on the water today. Seems yaks an beach spearos are a favorite target. :(
    Today was just a photo shoot. Took no guns, just the cameras.
    Sea/sky conditions were near perfect.
    We had a great day on the water.
    We saw sea turtles/rays/parrots and 1 16+ hog
    Also, this was my FIRST day back in the water after my surgery and I was good to 30fsw easy. :thumbup:

  • Bought a bicycle helmet today

    Dan---glad you are ok:thumbup:
    Wish I had known you needed as helmet, as I have a couple laying around that you could have had.


    Chuckd--I never ride without a helmet. I've been knocked down bicycle racing so many time since 1972.
    Also, in the state for Florida, all bicycle riders 14yr and younger are REQUIRED to wear a helmet. I always felt that I wanted to set a good example for younger riders which gave me another reason to wear a helmet. Also, helmet is REQUIRED for ALL USCF riding events here in the US, so we just got used to wearing a helmet. :)
