My friend is going to take me lobster catching at night too. I can't wait. I just want to try the spear fishing for the experience. Don't really expect to catch anything.

I caught a trumpet fish and ate it tonight. My first time trying spear fishing today. I almost caught a goat fish too. Speared it but it got away on me. The trumpet fish was so yummy. BBQ'd it with garlic butter and rice. My friend speared a huge tuna and it struggled so hard that it broke his line and then got away. The line isn't just a thin fishing line, it looks like rope. Man, I was looking forward to eating that. The spear I was using had no line, just a hand held one.

Sweet! That must have been so much fun! How much longer are you down there for?

For the record... I'm STILL very jealous! lol

My wife and I rented some scuba gear and a friend lent us a "Hawaiian Sling" which is this spear with a rubber band that hooks to your thumb. The range is only about 2 to 3 feet so it's kinda tough, but a whole lot of fun and tasty.
