There were some sightings of WSB in the LJ kelp last week, but since then they're a no show, or went deep due to weather , or whatever it is that WSB do to piss off spearfisherman.
Eric, one of my buddies went out Monday and dove for five hours in that slop. He reported good vis. but no fish and he paddled ALL over those beds. He's a very good diver and shoots an Alexander Bluewater, so if the fish were anywhere near him, he would've taken even a desperate Hail Mary.
When I first moved to Southern California and started to pursue WSB, it was Bill who sent me pictures and descriptions of how he rigged his guns. There are many who've taken more and bigger fish than Bill, but that's meaningless to a guy just getting into the sport if those "masters" don't take the time to explain the techniques and other nuances of the sport.
I try to emulate that by helping anyone that asks me.
