We were finally able to go out this weekend. After foul weather for the past weeks, we were all going through "spearo withdrawal" from the absence of that wonderful adrenaline rush of underwater breathhold spearfishing.
Anyhow, a few local Miami spearos and myself ventured out to the reefs to satisfy our thirst. The waters were a bit choppy, but the boat we were in handled them without concern. As we all broke the surface and submerged we were greeted by what seemed like thousands of jellyfish. There were more jellyfish in the water than pimples on a 13-year old's face.
Overall we had a productive day. We shot two nice Black Groupers (Aguajis), several nice Mutton Snapper, a few respectable Miami-sized hogfish and two bugs. Several curious Cero Macks ventured into our realm, but stayed just out of range from our guns.
I've attached several pictures for your viewing. Here I am elated after spearing this nice 15 pound "Black". This grouper's fillets were thicker than Janet Reno's inner thighs, but as tasty as my mother's Cuban-style Ox Tail stew (Rabo Encendido). Hope you all enjoy and may the spearfishing gods be with you.
