Swimming around the coral in Hawaii ya look at a hole and all you see is very sharp teeth. Lil bastard get their tails into the coral and hook themselves. If they latch on to you yer in deep shit. I was one of the few that carried a knife on my ankle when snorkeling. Also, fishing line and nets are a hazard. I got some strange looks with the knife but fuck em. I was prepared.
Once upon a time I did some scuba diving, and one of the safety rules from both instructors was 'have a knife' primarily for the fishing line and net hazards. And that includes fresh water where there's lots of fishing.
When I worked the oilfields in the Gulf of Mexico we used to catch eats regularly while fishing on our off hours. None of us put them to our faces though. JD
I have to say, looks are certainly not at the top of the list with ex wives. My ex was decent looking, also. You would never have known that her brother was Satan.
Wolf eel.My 10 year old son and I caught one that size (10-12 feet at maturity). We were in an inflatable tender to our boat,scared the crap out of me! I refused to bring it aboard which pissed off my son.
Not a Moray, nor a Wolf eel either, wrong head, their heads are very similar, this is another type eel but I can't tell you which one. Used to find then holed up up near the Abalone & Scallop beds out in the Straits of Juan De Fuca past Sequim in Wa. State diving at a place we called Deep Reef at around 100ft. Break open a scallop or other, clam, mussle, whatever, but not the Abalone, (to rare and pricey) then feed them by hand. I'm too old for that shit now.
Umm, what IS that?

Picture of ex-wife for comparison, please!
ReplyDeleteNot her looks, but her attitude and morning breath.
DeleteShe was actually a pretty good looking woman.
