Spearfishing the North-West
Submitted by WODF on Sun, 2009-02-01 21:16
Headed up the coast today for a quick dive at a local spot. Conditions were fantastic and we managed a good feed aswell. After shooting his Baldie Misch was harassed by a 12ft Hammerhead and had to come in through the breakers! 
just aswell we left him 5min before 
It was good day to get out. Got back to town n had fresh fish n chips 
Cod was estimated at about 5 and the Baldie 6kg.

haha yeah it didn't help
haha yeah it didn't help that Misch had the Baldie in his hand but he said he had never seen a shark like this one, and he's dived with 14ft Tigers. He told us it was really fired up, wings pointing straight out and moving around like crazy. F that!

Hammertime
Good stuff WODF and crew. Certainly would have been interesting being buzzed by an agro hammerhead.
