Epic Conditions out of Ft. Pierce

https://youtu.be/VAw_bIhOw7k

A recent trip out of Fort Pierce for snorkeling in 20-40 ft of water. My son shot all the fish (more or less), so it makes sense he captured all the decent video.

He was using a 110 cm MAKO Roller gun which has not yet been released. A single band, a double wrap of dynema and a flopper shaft seems to work well. The gun uses a new double roller mechanism which we both really like. Almost zero recoil, accurate and enough power for reef hunting and the occasional king fish.

Another great video! It is awesome when you get epic conditions. I am coming down Friday to dive with a friend out of Daytona. We are hoping for some epic conditions too.

Thanks! I fished there with him a few times there. He has some nice spots. It can pretty sharks though but pretty fishy too. He has an awesome African Pompano spot.
How often do the conditions clean up like that? We thought about trailering down your way sometime.

Epic day, indeed! Those shots on King's don't come around too often.

Nice! Cool to nab the King. They never seem to give a lot of opportunity. Your son was ready for him.

Those were epic conditions for sure. Great video, lots of action, great shots & fish. Not many days like that in 20'-40', that's for sure.
