My pride and joy....

and his first Hogfish dinner...

Willem

Willembad,

Congratulations, your son put a good shot on that hog!

You have taught him well! Was it his first fish?


*********************


I don't have any kids but I have lots of students, and I love seeing divers shoot their first fish!

Here's some first fish pics, all taken aboard my boat.

Some were on scuba and some were freedivers.

Many were just recently certified and brand new freedivers.

They did some nice shooting!

Chad

Thanks Chad,

I'm brand new to it as well. That was his first fish, although he poked three holes in it to get it done:wink: It was holed up after the shaft pulled out the first time so I made him go and get it. I'm glad it was less than 10' deep. He's hooked for life :D
