Views[830] Diver squeezes into a small cave in order to spear a group of lionfish. The fish often hide in deep recesses in the reef, making them difficult to catch. Views[184] A large red grouper followed the divers the whole dive, begging for a handout of freshly speared lionfish. Lionfish often congregate in small groups, making them easier to find. Views[241] National Park service divers penetrate a ship wreck looking for invasive lionfish.
