    As an avid spear-fisherman this is one of the best spearfishing videos on RUclips.
    It has a bit of everything. The vast colors and abundant marine life is what Baja is all about, untouched. To me this is "real" spearfishing.

    I used to do low level diving 15 years ago when smoking- spearfishing and just couldn't stay down so long , I was about 43 then . Gave up smoking 5 years ago , but haven't tried to dive in this time. Wander how long I could last now, probably a lot longer. Your video has lit a spark of interest again, fantastic , just beautifull down there as well .

    I scuba but have been practicing my free dive skills and have been following Kimmy Werner. Love this brother! I also eat what I catch and share with those that can't make ends meet. Pretty rewarding to see people smile. That is thanks enough! I love this vid. Thanks for the Stretching tip Dan! You and Al, good on ya both!

    Thanks, I really enjoy spearfishing because it is both a challenge and a meditation. I use the fish for personal consumption and I love to cook for my family and friends. Fresh fish is like nothing else. Top quality! I am grateful.

    I love spearfishing, there is a big element of fun to me, but my primary reason for spearfishing is to harvest the fish for food. There is nothing more satisfying than knowing where your food came from, what it ate, how it lived it's life, what it's migrations patters are, and catching the fish in the most sustainable and difficult way possible. Spearfishers take less than .01% of the fish taken in the world. I release what I don't want by not shooting them, and I only catch what I want to eat!

    Love the videos brings back memories of spear fishing in the old days with low tech equipment we made our selves. before reals we ran flourencent floaring nylon ropes several hundred feet long for large fish with floats attached and a fish ring hanging down from the floats(japanese net floats and life guard floats).

    I appreciate your comment. It is nice to see that even though you are not a hunter, you can appreciate the method I use to bring home my dinner. In fact, for valentines day, I made a hawaiian poke with avocado for my girlfriend, and she loved it. It is truly a blessing to harvest those fish.

    It is difficult to describe why spearfishermen enjoy doing what they do. You just have to try it. It is not for everyone, but experiencing the death of your food can really give you full appreciation of what you are eating.

    Awesome video. First time I see a profesional Spearfishing in salty waters. I use to spearfish with bike spokes and rubberbands in river at San Bernardino CA. These a huge fishes you are catching great job. I just love that Speargun, had never seen one with reel. Keep up the good work Dan. Im actually from Baja California, now in Mexicali. I love fishing no matter how i catch them. Take care amigo.

    Liquid Image adds collar correction and white balance correction to the firmware. Every once in a while, the red would not adjust quick enough and it would result in a red surface for a split second. Since then they have fixed the problem and updated the firmware. I have not seen this issue since then. I was using a prototype at the time.

    Yes, it is much different. It is more like accurate pointing than aiming. It takes some getting used to, but at least the shots are close.

    question, is aiming a speargun underwater different from when you are on land? just concern about the perception underwater.

  • @freedivingdan
    @freedivingdan  12 лет назад

    Freediving is one of the most demanding sports known to man. On a physiological level it is about as good as it gets for a workout! Add spearfishing to the mix and you have a massive adrenaline rush that will rival most drugs! Hard work, but very exhilarating.

  • @freedivingdan
    @freedivingdan  13 лет назад

    The speargun I was using was the New O.ME.R Cayman ET (Enclosed Track) 115cm with the Sporasub One 90m vertical reel. I was also using the New Sporasub Toggler detachable tip. Perfect set up for hunting Yellowtail, White Seabass, and a reef fish every now and then.

  • @freedivingdan
    @freedivingdan  13 лет назад

    @spearfishusmc , it will take me some time before I have enough footage of shooting halibut to make a video. I too love shooting them, but hunting for them can be boring at times. The best spots in So-Cal for halibut are where the bait spawn during the summer months. If I post the spots where I have done well for halibut on the internet, they will likely not be as fishy anymore, so I am not going to post exact location. Good luck and happy hunting.

    It really depends on where you are diving. Most spots that I dive in Mexico do not have many sharks, so I don't worry about it. When I am in Florida, it is entirely another story. Sharks everywhere.
