Diving this morning produced a few more fish.... hopefully these taste better than last weeks.... yuck. Two fish bagged this week. Both were Roi, an invasive species here in Hawaii... more or less a shoot on sight fish. It is a kind of grouper so it should be pretty good eating.
They are fairly easily identifiable from the surface... just look for the fish the swims like and eel or snake. Also they are good target practice since once they see you they pop their heads out of the hole, looks right at you and tilt their heads to one side as if saying, "WTF are you doing in my ocean." That is when you shoot them in face.
In other diving news from today I could have taken a flounder but found that it was more fun to harass it for awhile. I saw a tako (octapus) but left it there since they taste like rubber. And most excitingly I winged (but not badly) an Aku... would have been my fist big fish (this one was about 15-20 lbs) but he was just out of range when I shot.
