Hour of Code

My favorite Hobby

          I have many hobbies and I enjoy doing many activities, but my absolute favorite hobby is spearfishing. I have been spearfishing for about 5 years now and in my opinion, its the best thing in the world. Spearfishing is better in the summer because the water is warmer and the fish are more abundant. In the summer, we have anywhere for yellowtail to very big tuna we hunt. In the winter is when we go for the white sea bass, the ghost of the sea. My absolute favorite fish to hunt is California yellowtail. This fish live under floating kelp paddies, in the local shores, and you can also find them just cruising in schools. Yellows are pure muscle and they put up a tough fight, they're also very tasty. I love spearfishing, and to me the best part about is is the fact tat not many people do it. The reason I love spearing so much is because I love being in the ocean. I love being in the water, and i feel like i'm in a whole new world when i'm below the surface. I have my happiest moments while diving.
