Crystal Cove Spear Fishing

Some time ago me and some friends went spear fishing at Crystal Cove. It was an overcast day and the water had low visibility. The GoPro footage ended up hard to see but the day was still fun. I went with Justice Courtney and Tom Barns and we took home 2 fish that I have yet to identify. At first I thought it was a yellowfin Croaker but the fish we caught did not really resemble them. 
                                            If you can Identify please comment




I had a run in with a couple sting rays. If you look to the sand below my feet you can see them moving below me. I didn't see them until seconds before I released my spear but that is pretty obvious in my reaction.
