Got these today with my dive buddy. Small one is about 2kg bigger two is between 5-6kg. 9kg one ripped from buddy's spear fortunatelly wound (got metalic kiss on through lips rofl ) was not mortal and fish will survive.

Also saw biggest groupers i haver seen underwater. It was about 10kg or more it was magnificient to just watch it. The hole she entered was one of the "impossible" holes so she will live more. But the funny thing, i saw it near the hole it was slightly moving here and there. I yelled to my dive buddy to come and stalk she since he is way more experianced than me. The depth was shallow abou 16 meters and there was nothing to hide which makes stalk technique very difficult, the fish was depressed. As soon as my diving buddy start to duck dive it went in the hole. We wait a little for it to position itself in the rock before diving but all of a sudden it jump out from the hole it was circling like crazy at the enterance of the cave, second later BIGGER one appeared on entrance of the cave they start to fight. In my thinking, the hole was belong to the bigger grouper and the smaller one which we were chasing forced to enter other's home as unwanted visitor. So home owner gets annoyed? After few seconds of fight (they were circling same direction, they were triying to bite each others tail rofl :p ) they both entered the cave. It was a great sight :cool:

Here is the picture (quick shot) of the total catch.

I saw half a dozen or so smallish Bass feeding on a shoal of sand eel, very spectacular sight, they had no idea I was there; its nice to see fish do what they do sometimes :)
