Sweet!!!

Look at that trigger in the lower left corner. He's just waiting to go peck at your finger while you're stringing up the jack, that little bastard.

Considering that those shorts would scare most fish away! Now you know why you had to hide behind that piling! :D

That was my first fish obtained by spear, period. It's only a "trophy" to the extent that it was my first one. I know there are much bigger ones out there....

As for that Triggerfish, there were several around that were somewhat aggressive. One hit me in the forehead. Luckily he didn't take any flesh with him.... I harassed them from that point forward.

I never really gave the wardrobe any thought. I guess those shorts are a little busy, aren't they? That's probably why the Snappers ran off.

I don't think he is using a inletsurf approved low drag snorkel keeper :)

Thats a nice first fish, congrats.

Nothing pulls harder than an AJ. Now you got a photo for your profile. Very nice.

Nice AJ. I'd have had the triggers keepin' him company in the cooler, though.:)

Good shot! Looks like you stoned him. You have to be pretty secure in your fishing ability to wear shorts like that.

From experience, the fish came to life and kicked your ass as soon as he got a breath. Then he broke those wings off and bent your shaft before swimming off. The small ones are the worst.
Seriously, congrats.
