''' The beginning ''
November 2016
I'm diving at a deep spot looking for groupers...
My eye catches a gun on the seafloor...
...and then a dusky grouper...
But he is eager to hide...
Atleast im not going back empty handed...
'' The journey ''
Two years later...
Like i told you...at Makri and Makropoula...
yes...
40-50kg of fish...
yeah...
There are seafarms there...
If we go and find actually find them...it would be great...
Im talking about a lot of big fish!
It won't fit...
Fish of 3 and 4kg...!
Its better in September but its good for this time of the year...
If we don't find them...we ll buy some ewe to eat...
Will we buy some ewe...?
Offcourse...shoyldn't we get some ribs...?
Today...?Tomorrow...
Some....i mean about 3-4 kg...they should be enough...
Let's go...
Imagine if ...on the first trip of 2018 we get a huge seabass ...
Then i ll believe that something has changed...
Then i ll believe it...
Yeah...be sure of that...
It's going to be a trophy!
Listen...can you hear him...?
Dimos is making fun of me...telling me to be sure,its going to be a trophy...
Get a shot of Blahos...
Unlock the car...
Nice...
oh wait...let me take off the stone so we can move...
You think...?
Is there another on the other side...?
Look at this...
Nice day...a good day for sea bass....
Where will we go now...?
Should we first go to the South Cape of the island...?
To the South Cape for dentexe's...
yes...
And then we come back from the West...
Yeah on the way back we stop at the beach for sea basses...
Will we come back from the west side...?
Yes that s what i was thinking...
The old lady...?Is she a bonus?
Let me get a good shot of the only fish we will be catching today...
We ll pose with them later...
Goodmorning...
Morning..
They fish for seabasses right?
What about us...?Will we catch a sea bass today...
We ll see...i hope yes today....
We ll get ***...!
'' Τhe South Cape ''
Not these Dimos...!!!
We use the other ones now...
oh...
Have a look at my new gun...
Im at the same spot once more...
Hopping to meet the grouper again...
This time holding in my hand...
The gun i found here 2 years ago...
The dusky shows up...
Way bigger...
...but still very unsociable...
There looks to be nothing good around...
So a sargus will be the guns first blood...
Two large sargus show up from the deeper waters...
But i spot two dentexes in the backround...
The fish are moving below 30m ...
But with some scratching on the rock...
I manage to make on of them swim to me...
The fish turns quite far...
But now the gun can shoot that far!
Goal achieved!
'' The Beach ''
Once im in the water i start doing ambushes...
Nothing shows up after a few dives...
As im turning the camera off while i ascend....
I get surrounded by a group of large bluefish
Luckuly i turn in back on,on time!
Kostas
Kostas
A gun,come here quickly i shot a fish...
Im not pulling the fish in to keep the rest of them around...
Load the gun...load it and dive...
Dont shot it...dont shot it...
Dont shot...others might come again..
But the fish are gone...
One more dive comes to an end and i turn off the camera...
...and the bluefish show up again!
Once more...the REC is pressed on time!
'' The ewe ''
Since there are no seabasses...we ll eat ewe ribs...
Spearfishing is not just about catching the fish...
Take a video of me here...
Nice one...noone will hear that in the video...
Come on erase it...take another video from the start...
Come on...Its ok...
Spearfishing is about creating memories with friends...
...with your every return at the sea...
'' The End ''
Kostas is still fishing until today...
But never managed to see a seabass again...
...maybe after the curses of that fisherman... ...he 'll never see a sea bass again...
I am still fishing until today...
But the only thing i managed to catch where a few cuttlefish
...maybe after so many failed sea bass spearfishing trips... ...i ll end up fishing them with a rod and live bait...
The gun is still fishing until today...
But now way stiffer dressed in carbon fiber...
...maybe the day will come... ...when it will finally shoot a large seabass...
Dive Safe!!!
