Unfortunately i lost my flopper tip recently to gravity while riding my bike. I started off using my 8ft polespear with paralizer tip. Right off the bat I nail a black perch to show Silvio whats up. I string the fish to my belt and continue the hunt. Crawling through the kelp my excitement gets the better of me. I jet into an opening where a school of a dozen or so opaleye appear to be holding a convention. Silvio, having stalked the same fish thusfar unseen watches as I hurl into the group jabbing my polespear uselessly, causing the fish to dart everywhich way and flee the scene.
I apologize for my blunder.
Slipping into the thick kelp beds I come upon my pray again, this time a large individual. He bolts but my banded spear is quicker and he is gnarled by a shaft in the gut. I pin the fish to the bottom and tangle myself in kelp trying to get air and hold the pole in place. I dive and shove my finger into his gill plate. Its a monster!
Having succeded in securing food I trade poles with silvio for the 3ft fiberglass.
At about the same time silvio catches his first fish with a shot from below I come up on a group of opaleye, keeping the slowest.
Quite a catch
Its time to eat!
Although I despise the use of paralizer tips every single fish me and silvio hit we kept. Very awesome day of hunting.
