Wow! Cabilao

[pakman]

Here's a good example of something so small and camouflaged I would have never seen it myself until the DM pointed it out

oooh, this little colorful guy was so frustrating! We were so pumped to come across one of these but it just wouldn't cooperate with me and I ended up with all tail shots!

This guy wasn't happy I interrupted his nightly cleaning...

More crusties....

Pretty sure I met this guy in Puerto last year...

He was smaller then...

On the 2nd day, we decided to hit Sharks Point to see if we could find the school of large barracudas that were seen there the previous day. BTW, the site name needs to be changed since all the hammerheads which Cabilao was famous for were fished out years ago...

Similiar to Blue Corner in Palau, you catch a ripping current, and then hang on at a sandy plateau at the corner around 24m deep. There, we were greated by a nice school of 70-80 good sized barracudas just sitting there in the current above us.

Finally, some random wide angle reef shots...

[Mike Veitch]

get the sunball a little further out of the frame and have the rays coming in...or block it with the main body of the boat
