- Dan Silveira - avid diver, spearfisherman, kayaker, and sponsored athlete for Omer, Sporasub, Divers Dlite, and Liquid Image has created this spearfishing video called "Spearfishing Cali Style" to show just how great the diving can be in central California
Honestly it is a combination of experience, comfort, and knowledge. I have taken several freediving classes and now I am an instructor teaching exactly what you are asking. I spend 2 days teaching the skills needed to have insane breath hold and freediving abilities.
easily one of the best spearfishing videos I've seen. awesome job guys
I wouldn't have guessed that there wasn't an extremely loyal and trusting dive buddy behind the camera! That shot was really cool! Thanks for sharing how you got it. I want to give it a try!
it never fails to watch such awsome video it is so beatiful on the california coast it s almost is or is as beatful as the tropics and the editing and the shooting in this video are amazing great video
Some of the nicest shooting and filming that I've seen in a while!Good job Bro!
Good shit! Nice fish and great music. Keep up the good work. Hooyah from Okinawa.
I saw you debut this one at the Freedive Shop last weekend and I gotta say that I after watching it a second time on youtube, I still flinched when you shot toward the camera! Great video!
Some of the best video shots out there still. Awsome video. Please keep them coming and save some fish for us.
My goal is that within 2 years, 70% of my diet will consist of food I caught or harvested myself. So far, I am about 45-50%!
such an awesome video. every freediver should see this.
90% of the footage was filmed with the liquid Image mask. Even the footage of me shooting toward the camera was with a liquid Image mask. I tethered it to the kelp and got the shot I was looking for.
Some different looking fish. Pretty cool video.
Love diving Monterey area! Awesome video!
best video i seen so far
I am glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for the positive comment!
Those are some very inspirational words to me. Honestly, comments like these are one of my strongest motivations for spending countless hours making and editing these videos. As of now, I am a host for a new Adventure TV show. The show is going to be called Harbor House Life. We have just finished filming 10 episodes and I have watched the edited product for about half of them. EPIC is all I can say. We are also working on 35 social media episodes also that will put you on the edge of your seat.
Very Nice Time u guys have there....Thx for sharing.
The mask fits me well, and the footage is great. The camera records everything I see. I love it!
Such a dope video! You're a champion
great ethical shot on that first fish!
Awesome vid, Dan.
Good talk the other day at the Freedive Shop too- lots of helpful info.
Thanks! I am glad you enjoyed the video.
I wanna go spear fishing now
Thats really cool. Thanks Dan
What's up Dan! Nice job on the vid. Looks like fun, but I don't know if I can get back in to that cold water again.

excellent video
There is a lot to think about when we are spearfishing. Professional freedive training is the best way to get around the challenges.
That was pretty awesome, thanks for uploading.
May be a few years old but very nice video. Great spearing.
I am glad you still like it. I have also been posting lots of my recent work on Harbor House Life.
This is the best Ficken spearfishing video ever!! Love the length of it and the sharpness and your guys' abilities! I also love how you tell us every fish that is shot, brilliant! I am from WI and do a bit of spearfishing but it can not compare to this ever!! And the lincod in AK is amazing! Is it pretty similar in CA? Thanks!
1:55 Great Shot!!!
Great Video Dan! Ever seen a great white while you're in the water?
that was super badass@ 6:37 !!!!
whoa wish i knew spots like that! awsome video
I am stoked that you enjoyed it!
Great!!! Congratulations on your static breath hold!
I have traveled and spearfished many locations around the world, but I have never been to Australia.
Some nice shooting.
NICE HEADSHOT!
Here is how I do it. I use a float line with a small 2 lb weight to mark the hole, pinnacle, or fishy spot. I then hunt with a reel on my gun for 3 reasons.
1- less drag
2- quick
3- If I need to shoot a fish a second time, I dont have to worry about a second float line.
All my guns have the same setup.
OMER:
65cm - match 30 reel
75cm - match 50 reel
80cm - match 50 reel
85cm - match 50 reel
95cm - Sporasub one 50 reel
105cm - " one 80 reel
115cm - " one 80 reel
130cm - " one 80 reel
Southern California is great. Lots of fish, and every once in a while, a big one shows up. Make sure you know the fish and game regulations and the areas that are allowed to spearfish in before you go out for a dive.
Anytime. Great videos. I'm currently only a freediver. But spearing fish is coming up

Great video
It is great to know that my videos have inspired you. The 75cm is a good size gun for bottom hunting in that area. I like that gun and the O.ME.R Kanaloa. I can take shots up to 8 feet away, but for big lingcod, I get as close as possible. Shooting behind the eye offers the highest probability of hitting the brain or spine. The fish is what we called "Stoned" - no feeling, no pain.
Sick camera setup for that shot!
Sweet video. Aloha from NS OOOOAAAAAAHHHUUUUUU
Yes, I have seen a great white 3 times in my life while I was in the water. When you spend as much time in the ocean as I do, it is just a matter of when you will get the visit. It does not stop me from doing what I love. It just comes with the territory.
Awesome video. .keep it up
Thanks for the kind words!
I took freediving classes from Freediving Instructors International, and spent hundreds of house competing at the highest level of competition spearfishing. Now I am a freediving instructor for FII.
Dan Silveira Hi Dan, where do you teach out of?
sickest edit
very nice vid mate thx
Thanks!
Hey Dan, I'm a huge fan of your videos and your one of the people who inspired me to start spearfishing in the cold waters I live in (Seattle). I have 2 questions, one I am going to buy a new gun and after researching it seems like a Omer cayman HF camu 75cm is my favorite, if you know the realistic range of a stock 75cm I would much appreciate feedback. And also, you seem to shoot lif of in the eye, why?
LOL, I had the video mask tied to the kelp. I would never shoot my speargun towards another person.
I hope to have some more videos up on my channel soon, but because of the bigger TV show, I have been very busy with filming, and planing 45 trips per year.
Awesome...
damn. nice edit.keep um coming!
Anywhere that is allowed for taking finish is good. You just have to put in your time and find the good reefs. I have over 400 spots in Carmel and I feel like I am just beginning to scratch the surface.
11:37 sooo awesome!!
For Cen-Cal, I bounce between my 75cm which I use about 75% of the time, and my 90cm for bigger fish or deeper dives over 75ft.
Good talking to you also.
Liquid Image HD video mask. They offer lights that mount to the sides.
hey bro awesome setup. whats the mask you had the one with two flashlight on it. and love the vid bro keep em coming
i have a question if you free dive when spear diving, then is it hard to hold your breath for long since you have to equalize your ear and even swim down and up?
I think I use 2 different kinds, but my favorite is the Sporasub Breeze.
Hey Dan been following your videos for a long time..great work, always entertaining. Ive been spearing for about 2 years now and was wondering your thoughts on the controversial topic of reel vs float line. Ive been diving with a float line & thinking about a reel. I see your using it in this video even when bottom fishing. Just thought id get your opinion before I forked out the few hundred bucks for a reel. Issues with the reel in the kelp? As I mostly spear monterey, carmel area Thanks again
Wow this video is sick!! How did you set up the camera 6:17 and youre aim is excellent.
February is here. Have fun in your class and post how you do.
Martin was my instructor and he is the best. Tell him I say hi. You will be in good hands.
Howsit Dan
Amateur from South Africa here but what breathing exercises do you do to help stay longer underwater in one breath? i am fit but my breath isnt the greatest only 40 or so seconds of staying under while moving.
would really appreciate it :D
thanks
What is the name of the second song?
Great vid and diving!!
@pugetsoundspearo, I'm pretty sure you shoot them behind the eye because if you shoot them correctly it's an instant kill and if you shoot them in the head, they usually won't bleed because blood in the water is bad
so how do you like the liquid image for the video, it looks like it takes a good video but how are they to wear
Dan, I'm definitely going to be buying an O.ME.R. 3D camo suit in the next couple of months, but I have a few questions. Firstly, what thickness would you recommend, 5 or 7mm? Also, high waist/farmer john? I will be ab diving, spearfishing, and generally exploring the nor call coast mostly with occasional trips out to monterey/carmel. Any thoughts? Thanks!
how often do you guys come across sharks?, btw love the vids
The shot at 1:40 was really funny for some reason xD
Nice Video!! This is Central Coast?
Yes
what kind of dive suit are you rock'n?
Ever been to north carloina?? If so any particular spot I'm in the Jacksonville area
How do you hold your breath that long? I really want to get into this but I cannot hold my breathe more than a minute
can you see the fish? Was that a Cabazon?
I shot a HUGE sheephead at Arco Island between Carpinteria and Ventura
What is that purple looking thing with all those legs on it-you'll see it on 4:18?
I want to work on getting more shots like this in the future. I simply use the kelp as a tripod and attach liquid Image mask to the kelp, facing in the direction of where I am going to shoot from.
Dan Question is it fun down there ? please answer back
headshot on the first fish! dunzo
I am not sure what you consider small fish, but many of those fish are about as big as they come for their species. I love to eat those fish that I spear. Unlike many fishermen who just filet the fish, I prefer to cook them whole. I eat every morsel of meat.
I appreciate food more than most. I know more about that fish and what it took to create my meal than you could imagine.
scarface was badass..you should have fed him :D
A good freediving 7mm suit will be between $500 and $600.
O.ME.R makes the most comfortable wetsuits on the market.
BRAINAGE DUDE.
Yes, a cabazon.
hey can you recomend me any spots around carmel?
What size guns were you using in this video, for bottom hunting? Thanks.
The song credits are at the end of the video.
was wondering what mm of wet suit/ an how much on the weight belt? thank you
I prefer a 7mm O.ME.R two piece wetsuit. If I dive past 30ft, I use about 8-10% of my body weight, and if I dive shallower I will add 2 pounds at a time until I reach neutral buoyancy at the desired depth.
What is the Snorkel you are using in this vid?
like a boss at 6:37
Niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Crazy ass fish at 9:35
how do you hold your breath so long?
