big balls i dont know balls of steel yes

I would say he has balls of steel I would have folded back the floppers on the spear and let him have it (done it with pesky reefys and the occasional tiger shark that were to nosey) and swam like xxxx for the boat (folding back the floppers lets the spear pull back out but gives them a nasty sting they don't like )

Mate that would be bloody scary! The moment you have to look away and go for the boat would be the worst

scary encounters

Sun, 2013-07-21 20:48

I have had two very scary encounters the first was at coral bay in 1982 I was there with a pommy mate on a spearfishing trip when we both lived in Tom Price we were at a spot that we knew usually held go size cod and trout we had been there about 30 minutes with no luck so I stood up on a bomby and called my mate over I said to him had he noticed any thing unusual and he asked what do you mean I told there were no fish about for some reason we talked tactics for a few minutes then I went into the water again from the bombys as soon as I was back in a massive tiger cruised past the bomby I quickly backed onto the bomby again and told my mate so stuck his head in the water and saw it too we decided to wait 20 minutes then made the 75 meter swim back to the boat with our backs pushed against each other it was the longest 75 meter swim I ever made. The second scary moment was at Onslow when a tiger shark attacked my float line that was loaded with fish after that I decided to always swim a speared fish back to the boat
