How to photo and release WSB

I took this video 3 or 4 weeks ago and was sitting here watching it. I figured I would put it up so you guys can watch. I know its hard because you are waiting for the spear to fly but that doesn't happen here. I already shot a fish 10 minutes before this. Photo and release.

Re: How to photo and release WSB

Can you give us an explanation why? I'm not surprised, just curious as to what went into your decision of restraint on this fish.


Cool video

Re: How to photo and release WSB

If it was 3 or 4 weeks ago, the limit would have been 1 fish per day, maybe that is why he held off?

That looked like a pretty nice fish though, I might have been tempted to try and round out a boat limit.

I posted this video this morning. But to answer your question limit was 1 and the other two guys on my boat shot fish as well.

Re: How to photo and release WSB

Great to see you posting dude. Always have some good vids. Was there another fish to the right of that one as well?

Re: How to photo and release WSB

Ya another fish caught my eye that's why I looked away really quick. I will post the video of the fish I shot later tonight. I will also post some BSB videos of some good size BSB. There were a ton of fish in the water that day.

You are right about being nice, but I also shot my fish and landed it before anybody got in the water. How often does that happen. I was clearing my wetsuit from air and the fish scared me just as much as I did them. Oh and Austin's fish was bigger than mine. Bastard!!!

Great... I get to see that video again? Just as painful a second time. We need to get out again on a day that I'm not diving into a sea of brown murk.
