I succeeded in the hunt without harming anything

I set out this morning with every intent to murder one of gods creatures. As fate would have it, I was able to succeed in my hunt without sacrificing a single being.

I loaded up my spearfishing gear, bow n arrow, and pellet rifle onto my bike and set off.

I tried a new spot, which required a very sketchy scramble down to the beach. Having made it and gone around the point past people I armed my bow. For my first attempt I would use my obsidian arrowhead as opposed to the lead hunting tips. Nostalgia I guess.
I snuck up on the colony of fish with relative ease. Lined up the daddy and let fly. I scored a hit but only a glancing blow. The arrow tip is slightly curved to one side due to manufacturing defects that occur with hand made things. I heard the arrow skip off the wing and the fish had to recover itself before flying past the point.

Damn!
Every other shot was a miss. after scaring all the fish into the "saftey" of the ocean I geared up for battle

Saw a group of seals out spearfishing! I didn't think they were this far south.



Although I didn't nab anything for the grill, I did manage to haul this spiny dogfish ashore for a quick picture before letting him go free unscathed.

I learned later from my fish identification book that the two spines on the dorsals are mildly toxic. Probably wouldn't have grabbed him if I knew that


Epic day of hunting

Skunked at sea, good thing I had a plan B

Went fishing at the Santa Barbara peir but the real action wasn't until Goleta

 

Nice First fish Omar!

Fishing after school...again

Went Fishing off the Santa Barbara Pier again today after school. Caught quite a few...

Some type of Smelt

Another fool baby rockfish snagging my bait at the bottom

Taco Fare

The Mackerel is buried in this:

Spearfishing off the Mesa

I brought my bike to school, aint she purty? Notice the new panel on the back. 






This is a shiner perch I speared during my lunch break.






The Silvio and myself. Even though conditions where crap we still had a good time.

Fishing SB

View of Santa Barbara shore. My destination is the end of the pier.
Mass of suffering on a treble hook.
I could feel the fish yanking worms off and I had to continuously replace stolen worms.


A Game Fish!

Baby Bocaccio

 Sick catch but no snags on smelt, my desired pray. I was therefore unable to secure a legal catch to dice up and replace my earthworms as bait.
Oh well, Ill go hunting in the Pacific tomorrow for this lil fellas mom.

Check in tomorrow to see Kevin's Adventures!

Nothing epic to report...cept possible DEATH!!!

So I cruise at 7:15 on carcinogenic public transportation to school at sbcc. I bust a text to my mom to drop off my epic bicycle and it is dropped. I park it in bicycle parking and continue my day.

Somebody Was WATCHING ME

This wasn't..AHEM!!!This wasn't the first time I had received this ominous message...I just thought I had out maneuvered the sniper.

Im on your trail bub. Obviously I only touched the edges and got it into a plastic bag as soon as its picture was taken.

As soon as I come up on some black talcum powder that fools ass is grass.

Ran into Danny and Mario
If there was some grass nearby I woulda challenged em to a beatdown.

You fools comming fishing off the peir with me and connor tomorrow?

Kings of the Urban Skys

Stay tuned for monster fishing tales and tails(Tail Fins)

Day of Hunting

I started the day being awaken by my internal alarm at 7:59. I therefore had a full half hour of pleasant rest before my actual alarm was scheduled to go off at 8:32. I had a nice breakfast of Raisin bran crunch and I was out the door, flying on Goleta's paved streets at 25mph. My first stop of the day was at our local dump where I was informed of a sweet fossiliferous geologic formation.

Sure enough, a beautiful scallop ready for the picking.

I was limited on time today, Ill have to come back next Sunday to try to collect some bigger nicer specimens.




I then trekked it to Bicicle Bobs to get a back basket panel thing for my bike. No luck.
Hit up Connors house to get some CO2 capsules for my airsoft gun and its off to airsoft.




As I'm waiting for my buddy to show I do a little hunting creek-side.

A frog! I thought it was really cool how he was balancing on the grass to keep his eyes and nose just above the water. 

Following the bird calls brings this into my sights.

I notice some California quail congregating in the bush but I hold my fire.

The quail is in the lower half of the sight picture. Its head is obstructed by branches.

All and all great day. Plus I added a few items to my collection display.

 

Kinda looks like a raptor claw doesn't it? There is a reason for that
