I used to go spear fishing on the reefs on WA around Greenough
we knew the coast , and picked our reefs , usualy nice and flat shelfs that were covered by a meter - meter and a half at high tide , had to be high tide at night , little or no moonlight , and we would take a bright torch , hand spear , and and go spotlighting fish
it took maybe 10 minutes to get used to spearing the shadow at the edge of the torch beam , we would get maybe 20 big bream a night when we went out a few sweetlips and the ocasional rock cod if we were lucky
one memorable night I had a bad feeling about one end of the reef , I listen to my instincts usualy but my brother had to go see ... I felt obligated to go as back up , incase he got into trouble ... one second he is saying oh man this is a biggun ... then before I can say or do anything he had speared it and is screamin for help
he nailed a reefshark about a meter and a half long and was havin hells own trying to keep it down on the reef ...
we got it , eventually but I was kinda over fishin with him after that
