Man, I can smell that fish! Sop far I haven't seen any dentex, and the other day saw lots of dorada which kept just out of range while the sargos were catchable. Both my aspettos and deeper dives are improving but have a bit of a reverse block that hurt my ear and am now a week out of the water on doctors orders. Perhaps doing 34 meter variable and 29 m constant weight dives, (new depths for me) and the next day spending nearly 6 hours in the water with more than 100 dives logged (all shallow water: 2-8 meters) forced my eardrum a bit.
 
Well worth the waiting, guys!!! Awesome fish!
Memo, what is the third fish from the bottom on your second pic? Looks like sea bass, but with some strange black dots…
Shane, are there any videos that come with these monster dentex?

I've been lurking for over a year here and i've just started spearing over here in Ireland.
I'd just like to say the photos and vids you 2 guys have posted are inspirational!
Those Dentex look beautiful-maybe someday they'll make their way over here...

HAIL TO THE KINGS! :king :king
