A couple of happy snaps

Had a few nice trips to remote reefs lately and managed to get some nice fish. The trout was a nice catch, it took off like a frieght train and disappeared under a bomi at about 15 mtr, banging my spear into all the coral, ringing the dinner bell for any sharkeys in the area to come for a feed. Managed to pull him out with out to much fuss. Trevally always amaze me, how strong a fight they put up for the size of the fish. Was watching a shark trying to chew it off my spear from above while I swam to the boat. The shark would have been about 5-6 ft and to my amazement, the trevor defended itself (even with a spear hanging out of it) and was pulled into the boat with out a scratch on it. Exciting stuff to watch. Forgot my weight belt on one of the days so had to make do.....( note large shackle)

Cheers :cheers:

Great trout. I'm still on the hunt. Wiley bastards always spot me before I can get the shot off.
