Today Kevin and I visted our regular home spot, the Sunabe Seawall. We actually went to the "Junk Yard". Kevin borrowed a Daryl Wong speargun and I used my AB Biller. We bagged 3 fish (Kevin 2, Mike 1). We saw many fish but had only a few shots. We were only out for about 90 minutes but brought home fish for the first time to eat. The coral trout and rabbit fish tasted great on the BBQ. Stay tuned for the next trip.

TRIP NORTH

Today Kevin and I decided to try a trip a short distance north to see how the hunting would be. We initially set out for Onna Point, but once there saw that the swells and chop were a little too big for us to handle. Although not good today, Onna Point appears to have fishy potential. A word of advice, if going to Onna Point, make sure it hasn't been raining or you better have 4-wheel drive because the unpaved road gets really narly in some spots. Since the first spot was a blow-out, we then set out further north. We stopped on the side of Rt 58 in a large cove that seemed promising. After swimming out against a strong current, we noticed that the area was reletavily shallow but held some good fish on the coral structures. We had some decent shots but ended up with 1 small fish each. We weren't in the water very long before we had to leave to get back to our families due to the time we spent finding the spot. This may be a spot to try at higher tide when larger fish may move into the cove. We'll keep on trying to find new spots.

This was the first documented outing. We met up at the Kadena Marina parking lot. The group involved Kevin, newbie to our group Jamie, and friend of Kevin and myself. The plan involved swimming out to the reef and see was around. We saw some good size fish that morning but they we a little too wiley for us. We had some some close shots but didn't bag anything picture worthy. We continue to improve out skills everytime we go out but it feels like we may need more power to our guns. Plans for updating or modifying our guns are already in progress.
