Another awesome sunrise breaks dawn and water still flat like a lake. Probably one of best years ever with perfect conditions all week. Every morning we awake to this spectacular view from our casita and life doesn't get much better than this.
Randy Farmer joins us every year and this year he found this Mapa fish in a hole and didn't want to shoot it so he grabbed it with his bare hands! Thats right! Who needs a speargun when your fish are this tame? Thanks Randy and Linda for joining us.
Eric Uyehara also had a great time spearing this giant bumphead parrotfish. I'm sure his diving level has gone up 200% in what he experienced this past week. He and his dad Mike have so much stories to share when they get back home.
Jonathan Muratsuka travels with us each year and we were so happy he got his first Ono (wahoo) which he shot with his reef gun in 40 feet of water. Congratulations Jonathan on checking this fish off your bucket list.
I was also able to find another Ono in the blue water too. Always fun shooting pelagics. Had good current this year and was fortunate that the fish were there and everyone saw a bunch of Onos. One young kid never shot a fish in his life and his first shot he landed a ono too.
Meals were awesome and our final dinner was Pargo which we ate with tortillas. Another awesome Red Sea trip goes down in the books and time to get back home to catch the next south swell. Thank you divers for joining us and all our sponsors for supporting this years event. A big mahalo to our family at Palapas Ventana (Tim, Jimena, Karon, and the crew) Will keep in touch on dates for next year's shootout.
