yeh it is good to get away from the regular species around the traps and have some fun wrestling other species
cheers matt
Used to catch the occasional groper down on the NSW South coast, the spear fishos almost cleaned them out.
They are good looking fish, I remember they tasted great!
Enjoy

Roz, That must have been a while ago. It has been illegal to spear Blue Groper in NSW for over 20 years and rightly so as they are pretty docile under water. If you dive south of the Tweed they are in plague proportions. Not so common here in QLD but still a fair few around. Most people leave them alone.
