Aloha Blaiz,

The ulua in the most recent picture is an Ulua, It was black colored, but normally are light when you find them.
Kagamis are more box shaped and very shiny.

ALoha,Daryl

No, I meant the one in the first picture you posted. I think you called it an "african Pampano"?
 
Maikai tips Dr Wong...this seems an excellent method for find/hunt fish even here in Miami- quite efficient indeed...we often use the flow'n'tow, we just pull a couple of divers behind the boat (or ski) around an area and mark it similiarly with our floats or GPS...
It must be a great joy to have a close knit group of 10 yo diving buddies...

Laki hunting!:friday
 
Alohas Blaiz,

Yes the other ulua was a kagami. They are by far the best eating of all the Jacks. They only come in small schools of two or three, but on the east coast they are in schools of 5-50 sometimes off NC hatteras.

Setting steel,

It is good to dive with old friends. The problem is we are all getting older! But one diver, Pete is our hero. Just turned 73 and still diving with the big dogs as he says. But now we're just old dogs! :00

Aloha,Daryl
 
Sounds like good fun...I must get to the mainland of Oz one day to try my luck spearing some big ones like that! I'm currently living on the smaller Island down the bottom of Oz called Tasmania, its almost like Canda is to the U.S climate wise but several world record tuna have been taken on rod here!
I believe those Ulua you speak of are what we call Giant Trevally? Sounds nowhere near as cool though!
