We finally worked our way to the end of the wreckage and again swam to the deck. The amberjack were all over the wreck and good to eat. They also were easy prey for the spear guns
At this point I don
 
I gotta try to find the time to put down some others.
Most of mine are pretty tame but there have been some that had a bit of pucker factor built in
 
That's a minnow. Fifteen ft. long Hammerheads have been seen out of Sabine Pass, and Cameron. An 8 ft is cut-bait.
 
Too true...the record for a long time was off the Port Aransas Jetties. Me and my wife were snorkeling and having a good time when...just floating along...I told her about them catching a 15'+ Hammerhead about 100 yds away...Jesus and now Julie walked on the water!!! <img src="/metal/html/lol.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":lol"> Kieth-Tx
 
but I sure would've liked to have seen you wrasselin with that fish! <img src="/metal/html/lol.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":lol"> <img src="/metal/html/biggrin.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":D"> Good one!

We both have thousands of dives under our belts..... But we remember those with the pucker factor more than the others. Or maybe we remember them with better clarity.
All the best

I always wondered how one could concentrate on diving or spearfishing in the same waters with creatures big enough to eat you.....Not sure if I would be able to do that.I KNOW if I did it would be in the back of my mind at all times and I would spend much of my time checking my back! <img src="/metal/html/lol.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":lol"> <img src="/metal/html/lol.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":lol">
 
when people were pointing at me and waving. I waved back and ignored them.
Finally I went up on the pier, where they were waving from and asked them what they wanted. They pointed down and there was a huge hammerhead abut 20 ft out from where I was wading. I was only in knee deep water and would probably have seen it coming but it sorta shook me a bit. Those suckers are ugly <img src="/metal/html/super.gif" border=0 width=26 height=28 alt=":super">
 
done and seen things I will never experience. The amberjack is what I eat a lot of when we go to Florida. I developed a sea food allergy seven or eight years ago, so now I have to eat fish while everyone else is dining on shrimp, crab and lobster! <img src="/metal/html/frown.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":("> Again, great and adventurous! I had a mental picture of you going back up to the boat with all those fish! Glad the shark was not real hungry! <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":)">
 
that is why this page is fun. I will never do some of the things that you do either. Through this site, we can all enjoy them.
 
one of these days, u are going to be ate head-first by a great rkindsaw redheaded hillbilly woman---then, u will leeve them dorkle fins alone
quit yay durn laughin, u-old fart
 
With the Black Water conditions at Sabine Pass, had JAWS come swimming along, you would never have known it
until it was time for him to have a Royal Burger.
 
you get overloaded with the sights. I can still see the view in my head of that wreck and there was just so darned much going on. I had had little experience with salt water diving at the time and it was just amazing.
I am happy you enjoyed it. I had posted it a couple years ago
