Talking Hunting barracuda in Ibiza

I have been so lucky to find a job in Ibiza, as a scuba diver.. , staying here for the whole summer season.
As you guys probably know, scuba diving and spearfishing do not go well together, I was asked, by my boss from the scuba school not to go sperafishing ( not a good for the image of the diving center, understandable though)..
Anyways, I went in the water a couple of times to look for some good spots...as you can imagine, was doing a couple of espettos, a nice dentex...right in front of me..but no gun ..
anyways today I went to this spot WITH my gun, no dentex , but on my last espetto, at about 9 meters....5 or 6 barracudas right in front of me, did not hesitate, shot the biggest one...about 1meter long ..emptied 20 meters of my real!
I did not have many encounters with them yet and ask myself which is the best way to hunt them?
Then...the other problem, I had to go walking, past the center, through the village, with that barracuda...this is gonna cost me my job I thought, so I gave it away to a local fisherman..he was quiet happy..
The gun is still in the sea so I can go more often and do not have to walk with my gun through the village..
Put the gun in a crack, put a few stones in front of it... ..hope nobody will find it!!
Greets!!
