    Nice, all those pics must be really saved .. ONE day when you all turn 65 will look back and check them out and say … man we had fun back then ! 👍
    If you get ( prepare ) a nice chump bag and drop it with a line by the center of that Oil Rig let’s say at -50 feet of water you’ll be surprised what’s gonna emerge from down there .. that 72 years old man is my IDOL !

    It would take a lot for me to give over the fear of being in water that deep! All I could think about is jaws coming and eating me. I know it’s not practical and are more likely to die by a falling coconut, and I see people spear fish with sharks everywhere and do it without any fear. I would love to be able to get rid of that fear because this would be such a fun hobby to have

  • @Christian_Tango_Christ
    @Christian_Tango_Christ 2 года назад +4

    Congratulations! Great job 👍 I like seeing you kids getting into spearing. Good job on braining and bleeding in the water. Advice from an old timer is go ahead and gut them too. There are a number of benefits as a waterman to doing this. It Introduces nutrients directly back into the environment, promotes feeding of the smaller fish and improves the quality of your meat. Also scientifically as soon as the fish dies it secrets a chemical that parasites can detect in the gut and they start burrowing out of the gut through the flesh to exit the body.
