100lb Cubera Snapper Spearfishing The video says it all. I wasn’t even planning on shooting anything this dive just filming Chuck harassing the Mangrove Snappers. After he headed for the surface I continued down and got into the Jewfish which were from 350-500lbs, some real monsters. Right in the middle of two huge Jewfish I saw a square tail and total relaxed this giant Cubera Snapper comes right to me. Stoked I had the video camera...

The last thing many an unlucky Hogfish may see in the Bahamas if you take Lisa with you. No wonder they are fooled in to letting her get so close. Tiger Grouper in a typical hiding spot Don’t trust her. She’s good with kids, smiles a lot, and looks good in a bathing suit. She also happens to be a determined underwater hunter and doesn’t take it very well on the odd occasion that a fish eludes her. Over the course of the...

We do so many trips that are just full on all day long and leave you exhausted at the end of the day having made 100+ dives to absurd depths and then leave you with a gigantic cooler of fish to clean at the end of the day. Not that its a bad thing, but it is nice for a change to go and have a relaxing trip and just take it easy. Dive 40-50 feet for a few hours, take some pictures and shoot the exact fish you want for dinner that night. Head...

Evening Glass out For some reason I always seem to miss the FSDA Florida Spearfishing Freedive tournament held each year in Tarpon Springs. I think for excuses I’ve blamed weather. Girls. Warm beds. Dirty Water. Small fish. Cold Water. Big fish somewhere else. Work etc etc. Girls is the only excuse that I ever thought was any good but those are the ones that get you in the most trouble and catch the most shit from my friends. This...

Quick trip week before last with Ritchie Zacker, Ed Lunsford and some other solid divers from Jupiter. We left early and checked in at West End and were on our way north not ten minutes out over the Sand flats when one of the guys spotted a big Tiger Shark cruising on the surface. We spun around to check it out and with four sets of eyes were started seeing more and more tigers in every direction! As we slowed down we found the attraction...
