Great video! I was yelling at my phone...”get that hog!” Then I thought that Goliath was gonna get a free meal when you speared that one fish! So much excitement for a Monday morning! Thanks Dan!
Nice shooting bro. That first grouper didn't even give ya a good twitch..I know your there for the grouper but dang you have got a good reserve about yourself when that hog was taunting you broadside about 10 foot away. Then you put the smack down on him after you got your grouper.. Glad to see you back out and at it. Keep the videos coming...
Thanks MDV, usually a Hog will hang around so the best plan is to spear the other fish that are prone to leaving and then get to the Hog. I usually try to get the Gags on a spot under control and then switch to Hogs, etc.....Thanks for your comments! Best, Dan
Great video Mr.Dan I have watched the entire video and that first hogfish was a really big one. The entire video was awesome!I can't wait to get out there in the water. Good job 👏 Mr. Dan.
Dan, I’ve been watching your videos for I don’t know how long. I finally had to get an account so I could comment. I appreciate your tips, and I’ve gained confidence dealing with sharks from watching your interactions. Awesome stuff. Jay - Suwannee River
Thanks Jay, I appreciate your comments! Off the Suwannee Huh? That's some great spearing you've got up there! Pretty Sharky during the warmer months as well! Best to you guys up there! Dan
Dan.....love your videos. It would be great to see a little more topside footage. How you pack your fish, comments on the dive with your buddies etc. Do you spend multiple days on the water before going in? Where do you sleep etc. Keep them coming.....
Rich, I'll def try and do a little more of that, maybe a little footage before the dive? Was considering showing a screen shot of the recorder as well? Lots of possibilities! Best, Dan
Kenny, I had a guy on the boat years ago who actually did spray his shafts orange. Looked kinda funny but I'm sure it did aid him in finding them. Best, Dan
@@kennytoler6485 Kenny, we always go for a minimum of two days so yes, we stay on the boat. Got 4 dedicated bunks for the crew with full galley. Best, Dan
Tommy, I live near Hudson Florida. We usually go 60-100 miles from the dock but in the Summer, 100-140 is more the norm. Glad you're enjoying the videos! Best, Dan
Hey Dan im sure you get this all the time but I am having a struggle right now with my current ppd. Im not sure if there is any way we could or talk but I could really use some help. Thank in advance and love your videos!
Hugo, sorry I do not. That muzzle was designed by Kevin Bruington many years ago when he was the distributor in the USA for Sea Hornet Spear guns. When he later designed the Ocean Rhino guns, he went a different direction and ceased production on the older design. I don't know of anyone currently producing them. Best, Dan
Asalamalicom sir I'm a new subscriber in your channel thanks a lot for these kind of video God bless you,, could you do an educational video on how use powerheads
Thank You Teacher, glad you're enjoying the videos. I know I've had a lot of fun posting them. I've been kicking the idea around for a while on some "how to" videos and doing one on PH's is an interesting idea. Appreciate the thought! Best, Dan
SZ, it's an American Red Snapper, they're usually a bottom or mid level free swimming fish but there's always one or two that will go into a cave or crack. Best, Dan
Thanks Jimmy, we did I think 6 Episodes a few years back on Sheri Daye's "Speargun Hunter". While I enjoyed doing those, diving next to an UW cameraman for 3 days is a challenge! Best, Dan
yes this what I mean. until we see you out of the water and we see also the fish and little information how you feel inside the deep because that is not easy job Dan. thank you
Hey Gene, I finally ordered and received a gopro tripod and am going to try a "how to" type of video. If it goes over well, I'll try and do more on interesting subjects. And a gun video would def be near the top! Best, Dan
You guys are right, usually during the colder months we use it for warming the wetsuits and also for throwing in a can of soup to warm up. We actually have cooked Lobster legs in it also, and they were delicious! Best, Dan
Love it all...really enjoy the top side chat & scenery. Thanks Dan!
Thanks AA, I'm trying to do a little more of that as we go! Best, Dan
Great video! I was yelling at my phone...”get that hog!” Then I thought that Goliath was gonna get a free meal when you speared that one fish! So much excitement for a Monday morning! Thanks Dan!

Looks like an old spear laying on the rocks at 8:32 to your left. Great video
Hey T50, that's a spear for sure! I haven't visited that spot in over 4 years so it's def been laying there a while! Best, Dan
Dan, I’ve been watching your videos for I don’t know how long. I finally had to get an account so I could comment. I appreciate your tips, and I’ve gained confidence dealing with sharks from watching your interactions. Awesome stuff. Jay - Suwannee River

Dan can you show how the boat is set up forward of the cockpit? I've wondered how much room is there for extended trips. Thanks, love the videos.
BG, I def will, it's on the to do list for sure! Best, Dan
Really good vid. Thanks for sharing
Thanks WT, glad you enjoyed it! Best, Dan
That’s a beautiful drop
GKNY, It really is, not really tall but a super fishy spot. They really love those deep cracks! Best, Dan
Smoked that first Gag Dan. Perfect shot and auto bleed. 10 outa 10 😎
Thanks BB, you gotta love it when they go down like that! Best, Dan
Nice video i like it high visibility.
Hey JM, the visibility probably averages 50-60 feet (16-19m) but can be much better or much worse. Best, Dan
Sou do Brasil, prático pesca com vara,mas adoro seus vídeos são show
Daha videoyu izlemeye başlarken like yapıyorum ve sonrası vudeoyu sonuna kadar heyecanla izliyorum 👍
Dan.....love your videos. It would be great to see a little more topside footage. How you pack your fish, comments on the dive with your buddies etc. Do you spend multiple days on the water before going in? Where do you sleep etc. Keep them coming.....

Good spot bro,clear n flat any way good catch amazing.
Thanks AA, it really was a beautiful day with beautiful conditions! You gotta love it when it all comes together! Best, Dan

Thanks Barry, I wonder what Spock would think of Spear Fishing? Lol, Best, Dan
you are the BEST DAN
Thanks Yaser, glad you're enjoying the videos! Best, Dan
Nice spot! Great looking dive. If you could get orange shafts like those bands I think be easy to find them. Keep knocking down brother!!
Kenny, I had a guy on the boat years ago who actually did spray his shafts orange. Looked kinda funny but I'm sure it did aid him in finding them. Best, Dan
@@danmacmahon3973 Was curious. Do you stay on the boat offshore or come in every day?
@@kennytoler6485 Kenny, we always go for a minimum of two days so yes, we stay on the boat. Got 4 dedicated bunks for the crew with full galley. Best, Dan
@@danmacmahon3973 sweet!!!! If you ever need a fill in to cook and help out I would pay to go for experience!!
Nice video Dan.one question,I know might sounds sealy,but I need to ask.why you can shot the big fish in front of you ?
DL, if you mean that big Grouper, it's called a Goliath Grouper and it's a Federally protected species. Best, Dan
Another great video, hey Dan what city do you live in, and far off shore do you guys go? Thanks for posting I enjoy watching.
Tommy, I live near Hudson Florida. We usually go 60-100 miles from the dock but in the Summer, 100-140 is more the norm. Glad you're enjoying the videos! Best, Dan
At 7:32 I was totally amazed that you missed?? What's up with that? I'm still in shock! Another great video!
PW, lol, I hate it when it happens but it does indeed happen! Thanks for watching and making me laugh this morning! Best, Dan
Dan - talking to his compadres about his experience and the gag that got away
Dan’s Compadres - dude ! If I wanted talking I’d stay home with the wife
VCB, neither one of them is what I'd call a "morning" guy, lol. Best, Dan
Hey Dan im sure you get this all the time but I am having a struggle right now with my current ppd. Im not sure if there is any way we could or talk but I could really use some help. Thank in advance and love your videos!
Aric, you figure out a way to get me your contact info and I'll help you in any way I can. Best, Dan

Yanki, I'm not sure what you said, but thanks for the thumbs up! Best, Dan
Hi Dan, any idea where can I find the material to build the muzzle head like yours???? Is that Teflon or just plastic????
Hugo, sorry I do not. That muzzle was designed by Kevin Bruington many years ago when he was the distributor in the USA for Sea Hornet Spear guns. When he later designed the Ocean Rhino guns, he went a different direction and ceased production on the older design. I don't know of anyone currently producing them. Best, Dan

Hey Dan, what’s the orange looking fish in the crevice around 9:35?
SZ, it's an American Red Snapper, they're usually a bottom or mid level free swimming fish but there's always one or two that will go into a cave or crack. Best, Dan
that was a stud gag! when they get that underbite on their jaw you know they are jumbo
Thanks Ben! Hope things are going well for you! Best, Dan
Really nice Dive!
Thanks Ross! Glad you liked it! Best, Dan
Always a treat 👍

Going into deco means you have to spend extra time at your safety stop?
AC, yes, I'd probably clear the computer and do another 3-5 minutes at 10'-20'. Better to be safe than sorry.... Best, Dan
Hey the big ones are big for a reason, you’ll get em next time
FWK, you're spot on with that comment! Best, Dan
Tebrikler, yine harika bir video olmuş 👏👏👏👍👌

Any chance we could get a video reviewing your gun?
Hey Gene, I finally ordered and received a gopro tripod and am going to try a "how to" type of video. If it goes over well, I'll try and do more on interesting subjects. And a gun video would def be near the top! Best, Dan
