That's a sweet mess o' fish. Looks like you found the flatties.

I think sstep probably got the sarcasm, he forgot the smiley after "the worst." haha.

I know that myself, Russian and sstep (latest member of team reel unnecessary) are all keen on getting into spearing. We're all experienced divers but never held a spear before. It might be great fun to organize a group outing, a little "watch and learn" type of deal. I'd personally love to have a little training before I get my ass towed under a rock by an AJ. We can go out of PNS or Destin...

Happy Holidays guys.

Sounds like a plan Phil. I normally wouldn't say this if you all were spearfishin, but if you guys wanted to just dive first time around with some spearfishers, I can let you know next time were goin out and we can al go to the same spot. Will be a blast havin a bunch of divers in the water!

And Jon...I guess we have different definitions of gutshot. I consider anything behind the gill plate a gutshot. Now as much crap as everyone gives me...that is one thing I CAN say. I have maybe shot 2 or 3 fish behind the gill plate in the last few years.

And I told you what I was gonna say if you pulled that "I had to teach Clay-Doh's woman to spearfish" crap!

I went with Clay and Jon just for that reason. TO WATCH! I learned a lot. It was awesome to get those big fish right next to ya too! I had never experienced that. AJ's at 2 feet when on a Boat I just wanted one to bite! LOL I saw some shots and saw some action up close. Learned where to hit a fish and where not to hit a fish! It was worth the 3 tanks to get aquainted prior to attempting, since I didnt have a spear then it was an easy decision. I enjoyed it all. Experience is key and when I saw 50 AJ's come up to greet us I was really ready to stick something!

Dive computer coming from Santa and Speargun coming fo B day in January...... Just add water!

PS... Im Sure JW "Instructor of the Year" has a few things he could teach us all!
