So it's the first day filming in Mexico and my video tape runs out so I decide to give it a go and try and spear one fish. We are on a hot spot that is full of bait and after getting a good breath up I descend through thousands of green jacks littering the ocean floor. Visibility is at 20 feet and as I reach 2 atmospheres (66 ft) I can begin to see the bottom. I make out about a dozen larger fish below and keep going downward gripping my 120 cm rail gun. Then a nice Pargon also called dogtooth snapper comes in range and I let the shaft fly...I spear it in the back but luckily my shaft nicks its spine and it doesn't hole up but rolls over. I am low on air so start the swim up back through the green jacks and we end up getting one on board for the day. So many more stories to share from Mexico's finest resort, Palapas Ventana. Keep June 28-July 6th open for next year's Mexican Shootout!
