Dove on Saturday
We made a dive in 40Ft off St.pete on Saturday . Nice visibility 30Ft + swam through a massive school of Jellyfish which finally swept by us . they were almost top to bottom. Shot 8 Hogs and 2 decent Mangos.

Re: Dove on Saturday
Nice Haul. Haven't dove in a while. Hope the fishing up here is as good as down south.

Re: Dove on Saturday
You can't just post a pic and not talk about your day. You don't have to give us details just hit us with the lies at least.
You went out over in Sabastin, FL at 60 ft you saw these 2.

Re: Dove on Saturday
Lol okay so the story goes, we was in about 50 foot of water hard bottom when I shot my first grouper then I shot my second one that was a twofer he just inhaled a hog and I lined up my gun with his gill plate and shot both of them. No lie i swear on everything I own. Here's the pic to prove it. It was a one in a million shot. Looks like a turducken.

Re: Dove on Saturday
I can vouch for ScubaSteve as I was there. Funniest damn thing I've seen spearing. Even funnier was when we docked the boat there was this HOT . . . and I mean HOT FWC researcher chick at the dock. She asked if she could measure, weigh, and take a sample from the gags. Of course we said yes (mostly to just stare at her for a few more minutes - LOL). So she measures, weighs, takes a small bone from their inner ear that allows them to determine their age - pretty neat. So Steve says, "Hey, look inside this one's mouth" - she about bust a gut laughing (which of course did interesting things to various parts of her anatomy)
I asked if an FWC officer was checking our catch out if we could get into trouble because the hogfish was undersized! She said probably not, but that it was a good thing we kept the hogfish inside the gag just in case. |

Re: Dove on Saturday
Was she short? If so, it might of been Angela. She is a damn good diver and can spearfish too. We took her out on a few MG trips aboard the Holy-Spear-IT many years ago to collect fish data. I think she got married recently. Really super nice person.

Re: Dove on Saturday
