Had a night dive a while back and grabbed a nice lobster, found some others but left them to grow. Not that many red mullet around and only 30cm sole (my personal min size).
Solo on Tuesday: little bit murky and a little bit of swell but fishable. Was doing aspettos and seeing shoals of black bream coming in. Lined up the bigger one in the shoal, took the shot and was surprised to see two fish spinning on the spear.
Kept on with the aspettos and every other drop or so was seeing fish. On one drop I saw bass, black bream and red mullet. On another one I saw black bream moving in but I waited and sure enough a gilthead came in, I lined it up but it zig-zagged off just as I was about to take the shot, ran out of breath too (1'40" at about 7m I think).
Went yesterday with Pierre and Kristian. Rough spot! Swell and wave slap. Clear vis though considering the conditions. Was diving 11m at the deepest at about 1'20" and you could make out the weed/sand border from the surface. Found a shoal of black and white mixed bream and had a couple of drops but they really kept their distance. Tricky. Showed Pierre and he saw them too - bit deep for long aspettos for both of us.
Went looking for calmer waters in the shelter of the reef and did shallow 30 second aspettos on the way back, Small/medium sized bass headed directly at me, turned on the spearpoint so I took it home.
