anywayz was some baitfish and also saw some fish with yellow and black spots i think
anyone know what it is- was between two rocks, thought of shooting it
if you don't know what it is
don't shoot itI've done that mistake when first starting in Victorian waters and IH very eloquently let me know all about it.
have a good look at the fish and identify it once at home ... it's a good way to start and develop a healthy way of practicing / enjoying the sport rather than just shooting like a cowboy
The only reason i had shot one before was pure dumb luck. I was aiming at something else which i missed and my spear shot into some weed and then started wobbling about which turned out to be the fish in question. I checked it in the sea fishes book when i got home that time and it looked like the morwong to me but as i said i was probably wrong. When i saw them yesterday i never shot at one. And no i don't shoot like a cowboy, i only shoot at what i know and what i know the limits on.
I will try take some footage of one if i see one again next time so you guys can see if you know what it is.
