I make a few dives with the spear gun and soon find myself drifting along the wall in the current. Some fish cross my path, but now that I am hunting, I don’t seem to find the fish as easily as usual. Maybe it’s the big gun at the end of my hand. Or that I’m not really a hunter yet and I haven’t learned to conceal my indecision about this new activity. At the end of one dive a small kelp greenling swims across my path. I follow him but do not shoot.
