HeadHunter Monster Carbo
Wow...just got in from a multi-day spearing trip. I took the largest Carbo I've ever landed! I also believe it's a record Black taken by a diver! Offical weight of 134 Lbs! Here's a pic of the beast. I'll post details and lots more pics from the trip as soon as I can. A really cool detail is that I was wearing a GoPro and got the whole dive on video. A truly great feeling to spear a personal best Black and capture it on video! Will try and get the video up on youtube asap. Here's the beast on a picture perfect day!

Re: HeadHunter Monster Carbo
That video will go viral !! Instead of the spearboard push the new style is "too heavy to lift" . Congrats on a beast!!
