This weekends catch. Really nice weather and calm seas. Caught this with Ken off a beach past Camp Schwab (Don't know the name). We saw lots of turtles that day, a good size sweet lips and a Giant Trevally about 15 ft to our right. It was checking us out. I still don't know why we didn't take a shot at the GT. We just stared at it as it cruised pass us. Hopefully we see him again next time and next time we won't hesitate to shoot. :)

BEFORE

AFTER

Kevin and I went out to Ikei Island for the first time last weekend. We tried to go off the reef at Big Time Resort but were turned off by the guard at the entrance. We therefore headed to the bridge and tried underneath. No much there except a nice lobster that I shot out in the open. On the way back we hit a site on the side of the road that was shallow and murky but Kevin still got a good sized fish. We will have to try the reef again someday with some who has been there before.

Lobster on the barby tonight!

Fish tacos.

Sapo strikes again.. Nice 2.5lb coral trout taken at Kadena steps in very low vis, Sun afternoon with Tim. Nice work

Caught this nice Golden Rabbit fish 2 days ago. In the process I got my shaft stuck in the reef and Tim and I tried to free it for 30 minutes with no success. I took a mental note of the approximate location and returned the next day with a hammer and screwdriver and was able to free it after about 10 dives. This fish almost cost me $60 but I got the last laugh. Incidentally, we have been seeing a lot of these fish recently and some much larger than this one. Might have to get a color print of this pretty fish.

Got the fish but lost the spear (momentarily)!
