Hello fellow spearos! Well 2day my dad and I went on for a little fishing since fathers day is coming I wanted to give him an early father days present.
Left kind of late out of Black Point marina 7:30AM definitely to late to be leaving IMO. Anyways we headed out, and I assumed the vice captain position for once!
Showed him how to operate my boat and get on place just using the tabs since I have a jack plate on the back. Hit the 1st & only spot and I saw nothing for half a minute but a few feet ahead things took a turn for the best.
1st shot was of a mutton, shot missed and there goes a f#$k then I realized how i hate taking shots from the above so I didn't blame my self like I would have normally done. Anyways, I continue to fight with my mono and load my gun and hit my 1st Mutton Snapper! 14.5cm
. Then continued to a very nice hog, which was 18.5cm long. I kept diving around and noticed a nice cubera, shot it from the top and nailed it, I told my dad to come where the rocks where since there are fish there and he can fish with his rods, he starts going to it and it just so happens that the anchor does not want to anchor the boat. We tried but nothing, probably to strong of a current.
As I give up on trying to hand over the fish to him, I load the gun and hope it does not rip due to the mono when I shot. Sunddenly, I see a nice looking BARACUDA coming my way. I think he was eying my cubera. So I go after her and she starts to dip, but turns around and I see her looking at my struggling fish.
So I suddenly look @ my gun and decided to load my 2nd band just in case! I drop and BOOOOM!
she starts going crazy so I begin fighting with her and eventually bagged her. She gave me a very nice fight and a hell of an experience.
Sorry for the pics they are not in original size email me if you want to see them.
