Dinner
We actually did very little spear fishing. There was just too much to see.

|
|
Phil free diving to about 60'.
Phil would dive to 60' - 80' and stay down there for 3 or 4 minutes just
looking around.

Phil free diving.
I think the only time Phil had to breath was to change his
buoyancy.

Phil Tobin & his pet
Some guy at the beach tried to shoot this fish with a $5.95 Okinawan spear gun and the spear just bounced off. Phil chased him down and caught him with his hands. We let the fish go after this shot.

School of big flat fish
I saw them one time & took two pictures. They were about 10 - 15 lbs and I have no idea what they were.
