Solo today on the 3rd reef
The sea and sky were beautiful
This is the second day using my new Persuit mask
The current was rippin so hard that I set out a 200f drift line behind my scupper:(
So I'm driftin along when I see this NICE fish 55f below me. I think, "Wow, sure is nice to see the Jew fish becoming more common on the reef." So I watch him for 2-3min as he lays on the bottom, then he turns and I realize "Holy sheit, Its not a Jew, its a 3f grouper:@ I do a quick breath up and start my drop. He watches me come till I'm like 20f away then he starts a slow swim off. Out of air I go up. I spent close to an hour trying to outsmart him this way and that way. Finally I have to give up cause I have to quit for the day:(
I did manage a 20in hog and 2 macs though.
I thought I saw a floating fridge on my way back in
