Really cool video, enjoyed it a lot. It’s a really great tribute to your dad. Finally getting that elusive Wahoo! I thought this style was good as well as your previous ones. Those 0:07 things are Heartbreakers for sure! I’ve shot only four in about six years. we’re going to go out and try tomorrow. Off of Key West! Keep up the good videos.

Thanks man I appreciate it! We went out today off of Key Largo, but only saw one. Water is green up here.

Excellent production. We boat out of Key largo. I thought this was around there but it says KW. Either way great job with the vid. We're chasing similar goals off our boat, enjoying every minute of it!

[@DerekVanHook]

Some footage is from Key West and some is from Key Largo. Glad you liked the video, we’ll probably see you out there!

Sick video looked like a awesome couple days out there now all u need is. 100 pounder+ on a gun lol

[@DerekVanHook]

That would be sweet!

[@vinman2001]

He's been shooting long enough to judge the shot, if you want to get that close to other divers, you better expect something coming near you 😅

[@DerekVanHook]

🤔

[@AbdulRahaman-lw8xj]

I dare anyone to swim with a whale shark and come back and tell me that God isnt real. I got to swim with one off of key west in 2017
