If you have ever spear fished then you know how hard and challenging it can be. This has been a humbling endeavor for me so far. The free diving and holding your breath for extended amounts of time at 30-40 ft is a challenge itself. Thats not mentioning learning the tricks to get close enough for a shot. Im amazed when I talk to the locals here. They can go down 50-70 ft while holding their breath for 5 minutes at a time! I managed to connect on this nice clown triggerfish and Ill take it as a start! Hopefully ill continue to improve and get into some bigger fish. The other guy I was with was able to connect with the small parrot fish. They made one delicious dinner that night!

We used to spear fish when I was stationed on Okinawa. We used the Hawaiian sling for a spear. The beauty of the water around the islands is just hard to describe.

Awesome post. Thanks for sharing.

jealous to say the least

I was stationed there in 1983-85 I used to scuba dive and spear fish much easier and can get much closer when your not gasping for air

Great picture!!!

Plus #1.

I was there from 76-78 beautiful waters and beaches. Enjoy your time there.

I was stationed there n the Navy from 83-86, sure wish I could spend some time there now!
