Heya Sean
How was the dive on Sunday? Sorry could'nt make it, sundays are the most hectic day of the week for me. But things will cool down as I have now moved to the northen suburbs, only one street away from the church. So I might still be able to sneek a dive in inbetween services.
Saturday was the lousiest day of diving I've ever had!!!! I dived Fish Hoek, 2-3m viz!!
, Camps bay was a bit too far so I drove to soetwater, where the water was a flat as a mirror. I got all kitted up again and swam out 30m, I could not see the end of my speargun!!!!
arrg. Tried the water again in Fish Hoek in the evening, it had cleared a bit so I could see about another meter or so. I loaded my gun in about 1.5m deep water and as I turn around I saw a 30-35cm white stumpnose (only real fish I have seen all day). I didn't want to shoot it from the surface so I tried to decend in 1.5 water (almost impossible task) when I got on the same level as it, it was almost out of range. I shot and it disapeared behind a rock. Too add insult to injury, As I started pulling in my spear, it came back around the rock and gave me a perfect broadsided at nearly point blank range (not that my gun was loaded
). If fish could speak, would be ripping me off! So thats the story of my weekend, I hope yours was better.
