So I came back from my big trip to the Philippines and my spearfishing dream. About the time I found someone who could help facilitate the dream by taking me out to a likely and legal spot , I got sick for a week.
Too sick to be bouncing around in the open ocean for sure. I did see a lot of underwater wildlife. I was watching a bait ball being attacked by yellow fin tuna when a two small whale sharks swam by. I followed alongside about 18 feet down. Very neat to see. I saw some more that day. This was about 90 minutes out of the harbor. The wind was kicking up the waves and the boat was cancelled for the next day otherwise I would have gone out again. Instead I went to a national park where a monkey tried to steal my bag!
I took a freediving course and did a line dive to 60 feet. Not bad for an old guy.
