Re: Nice day at Cabo Rojo Puerto Rico
Pucho,
Like the trunk fish photos. We call them shell fish over here. I have never taken one but eat it all the time. How do you clean one of those? Eric

Re: Nice day at Cabo Rojo Puerto Rico
Hi Eric, I am going to explain how I do it, others have other methods, with a sharp knife and a piece of wood to hit the knife cut from behind the eyes all the way to tail (red line), then cut the conecting tissue around the tail (blue line), split open the fish, pull up the tail, cut the spines of the dorsal fin and anal fin, all the meat should come out now if pulled, sometimes have make small cut on meat at the head, you should get the tail and 4 nice pieces of meat attach to it, clean any guts and ready for stew and some empanadillas.

Re: Nice day at Cabo Rojo Puerto Rico
Went out this morning, nice day no wind, current and the water was very warm, there was a small nurse shark that was hungry and ate some pargos and took a nice chunk from the schoolmaster in the pic, reef competition

Re: Nice day at Cabo Rojo Puerto Rico
I enjoy this thread very much. Nice pics and nice fish. I am going to be in Puerto Rico for 10 days (July 8-18) and i cant wait much longer!!! Were you guys shorediving, or, if you were from a boat, could your location have been reached from shore? How was the visibility? Thank You

Re: Nice day at Cabo Rojo Puerto Rico
Went out on sunday for few hours to some cays at Cabo Rojo, nice day, calm water, no wind, perfect, my catch: Mutton, Yellow jack and a Parrot fish, but the best part of the day for me was that later I went with my daughter to spearfish and she kill her first fish (barracuda), and hit a second one but it tore, also she wanted to go diving deeper, so I took her and she was dving
10' easy, she is only 9 years, here she is proud with her speargun and catch, she also gut and scale the fish and is ready to be fried tomorrow, also my other daughter with a great taste in spearguns.
