Took a trip out to the Big Island on Sunday. Was hoping the sea would be cleaner than it appeared inshore. Unfortunately it was not to be. Dived on the E side of the island and there was lots in the way of trash fish but nothing worthwhile, not even the usual ubiquitous Kingfish. Kris picked up a small Samsonfish but I came away with nothing. We moved around to a few spots but the viz was poor inside of The Big Island.
I learned an important lesson about time off. You need to dive inside of your limits and your max in shape may not be your max at the start of the season. I really need to spend more time getting fit. Been a long winter which has taken its toll on my fitness. Guys have been chatting about the prevalence of the Jewfish around the headlands and I am hoping find some myself if the viz allows.
I am a keen FREEDIVING enthusiast with a passion for SPEARFISHING. I started my Spearfishing in South Africa but now live in Coffs Harbour, Australia. With the Pacific Ocean quite literally on my doorstep, I am in what could be readily described as SPEARFISHING HEAVEN.
