A week ago the weather finally let up for a couple of us to get wet. Started the day being greeted by 2 bucks on the green, only to realize one was taking his morning dump lol. Steve, Kris and I meet up at SWS parking lot and paddled out. Even though Kris had woken up with a nasty bug he still drove 2 hours and paddled out, hoping the Nasal Decongestant would do its trick, gotta love his dedication to diving. I was able to nail a nice copper at 14" and the biggest wolf eel (came out delicious with a teriyaki sauce) I have ever seen. Unfortunately when I shot the male? I tagged the female? hidden behind him, luckily I only hit her dorsal fin and we were able to release her. She was pissed when we did and tried to take a chunk out of Steve, ending up nipping his fin   :smt005. (Thanks for volunteering to release her buddy!   :smt003) We ended up calling it a day after the water got so cold that we were shivering at the bottom. I am counting down the days until I my custom Subcraft suit comes and I wont have to face this problem anymore!
Enjoy the video!

Hey nice catch! that's a giant monkey face. Other than trying hold the slippery thing down when you clean it, pretty damn good feed!
