Last Trip to Qatar
permalink
It has been a long time without spearing since I moved out of Qatar, so I flew for the weekend and went with my friend Richie to Khor Odaid. The viz was perfect, we managed to get our biggest fish thus far (17 KG Grouper)

Looking forward for another trip soon !

These pictures were taken first week of November, and it started to be a bit chilly without a wetsuite especially below 4 meter depth. Next trip wetsuits are needed for sure ... even in Qatar

Hey nice fish indeed.... I was in Udaid all the last week and viz was great there and since water cooled down there is an abundance of fish now.... I saw a large hamour there (20kg range) but it was very spooky and ran away... I noticed that the larger hamours are spooky and the smaller ones on the other hand tend to get very curious
and approach you to some really close distance, freeze for a while, then realize u are a danger and move away...

best regards

Hello there, I'm glad to hear that viz was great as I will be visiting Qatar in a couple of weeks to try my new gun. It hurts when a 20KG hamour gets away from you .... doesn't it

Very nice, I bet those sea breams tasted very good. Did you say you dove for 1 hour or were you freediving?

Cheers
