Wellington diving is AMAZING! - The 5th week on the road...

- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
- It had been a fantastic couple of weeks in Taupo and Wanganui doing creating space things but after that long out of the ocean my gills were definitely feeling way too dry so when I rolled into Wellington and there was a little window of calm on the south coast I headed there and got set up for a morning dive.
Getting in the water after a stunning sunrise I was greeted by amazing visibility and abundant paua, kina and crayfish. The bag was soon getting filled and by the end of the dive I was struggling to fit any more into it...
Back at Heck and Jay's place I process the kina, paua and crayfish and we have an amazing dinner of paua schnitzel, crayfish, kina, chips ans salad!
MASSIVE thanks to Nicole Grey, the crew at Te Whare Mauri and Heck and Jay for their beautiful hospitality hosting us - I am most GRATEFUL!!!

Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers!!!
Moa Point always providing the goods
Yeah pretty amazing spot aye! Cheers!!!
heck yeah bro, me and a mate just started diving and it's solid to see what u can do without dive tanks n all that !
Wellington under water eco system is unbelievable for a big coastline city.
Yeah it's amazing aye! Cheers!!!
Makes me wanna pack up and go on a adventure down there!
You should! You only get to live once so make it happen somehow! Cheers!!!
The bro really went shopping today. Awesome stuff, made me more interested in doing diving
Yep, lots of kai for the whanau! Get out there and give it a go, its super rewarding! Cheers!!!
@@KerryFlowers I live in wellys so I'll prob go with the boys some day. Earned a new subscriber too haha
@@davejordan267 That's the way! Cheers!!!
We are slow jigging on the kayaks out from Paraparaumu tomorrow if you are still around. Some good snapper out in the channel in 40-60m
Sorry I missed this, I have been really sick with the flu for the last few days so have just been resting, hope the trip went well for you guys! Cheers!!!
@@KerryFlowers hope you get better soon. I got 5 snapper on the ingoing tide but my mate caught nothing. Daiwa orange tungsten bayrubber kohga in 100g was really effective
Wow that water is so clear you can see all the salp floating around... mean kina too 💚
Yeah the viz on this dive was incredible! Amazing place, takes me back to when we came down for your awaed presentation and I couldn't dive it because I was sick, it would have been like this back then...love you and miss you so much!!!
another great vid, cheers. Boy that chain jelly is abundant, the blue cod usually really pig out on it .
That chain jelly is Salp and they filter the Alge and stuff out of the water, its common to see a lot of it about during spring...Cheers!!!

Kia ora Kerry love this vlog, Te Whare Mauri is such a beautiful vibe and so glad you got to experience that. Wellies looks amazing for the kaimoana I have a brother inlaw who dives there when he can. Love this!!! Have a great week brother
Yes Te Whare Mauri is as amazing as the diving in wellington is! Cheers!!!
Always blows a northlanders mind diving down there. It reminds me of my dive trip down south getting blown away by the size of the kina and paua compared to up here. Keep up the awesome work
Yeah it's pretty Damm good! We do have kina and paua like this on the west coast up north but not everywhere like down here, I'm loving it! Cheers!!!
continues to be present in Indonesia, the fishing is so good that it bends the fishing rod, the latest video continues, I'm waiting.
greetings to one hobby and greetings to youtube fishing content.
thank you very much
Cheers!!!
Mean content!! Just subbed 🤙 I’m hoping to get out in the water soon for the first time in Welly and this is motivating as hell!! Keep up the awesome content 🙏
Welcome aboard and good luck getting out there! the good news is that you don't have to dive deep or go far offshore in welling to get a feed! Cheers!!!
Yeah bro once again mean one
Im wrapped to see some content of down the line yeeheelife everywhere down there aye bro ...cant wait to see you hit the bluff bro 🙏 lets go brother 💯
I don't think I will make it to the south island on this trip, it was going to cost too much and be harder to fly off to the states if my visa comes through, I want to do it someday tho! Cheers!!!

Beautiful feed yum
Cheers mate!!!
Absolutely loving your content. Keep up the great mahi.
Cheers! Yep there will be plenty more to come!!!
Beautiful dive and cook up Kerry. Conditions looked amazing and so much nice shellfish. In Europe octopus as considered prime eating. Do you take any for the pot? I'm heading to NZ soon for a job and looking forward to sampling some of the delights from the ocean 😄 cheers mate
Yeah I like eating octopus but they take a long time to cook and I was living out of my vehicle while I shot this video and didn't have the means to cook them properly so decided to leave them to be...Cheers!!!
Yellow foot are only 80mm legal, quite rare though not much point in taking them don't taste much different if at all
Ah so there is no point in taking them then, that is useful to know. Cheers!!!
Your aloud 10 normal and 10 yellow foot also ..IV seen a lot of the. Jst don't take them
Solid
Cheers!!!
awsome bro luv the content
Cheers!!!
Was that harmonious Ra that does the creating space bro ?
Yeah, that's the brother! Awesome person and awesome Kaupapa! Cheers!!!
Hi Kerry, I'm wondering there is no sharks in Wellington while you are spearfishing?
No but this was filmed in early spring when sharks are not usually seen...Cheers!!!
Hey mate can u please do a video of tasting the paua pear raw, honestly I didn’t eat them til I tried it, if u like scallops and oysters raw. Yup it’s just delicious.. I crave it now…
Oh OK when I tried it I found it really bitter maybe it was just a bad one and I should try again...Cheers!!!
churr brother where abouts in wellys?
South coast...Cheers!!!
Nooo the poor creatures🥺💔
Tasty poor creatures! Cheers!!!
Nga mihi brother! Our creating spaces whanau, Heck, harlem, teururangi. Tau ke to mahi kerry
Creating space legends alright! Cheers!!!
Yeah bro mean !! When are diving next bro ?
Heading out for a dive now...
Did you not keep the octopus! 🐙 I guess there was no room in the catch bag with all those kina haha
Yeah the catch bag was chocka lol! Love you!!!
Mean video ehoa ataahua tou reo
So you drop the Paua in boiling water after you’ve cut it into pieces?
I drop it into the boiling water after I have taken the paua out of the shell but before I cut it up. Cheers!!!
@@KerryFlowers thanks mate, saw some vids online of people blanching in the shell for softness
What's all the clear stuff floating I noticed it today went out for a dive was wondering what it is
It's called salp and it is a filter feeder feeding on phytoplankton...Cheers!!!
Where was this ow ?
Spot X bro lol! Cheers!!!
every poacher in wellywood, is gonna clean that area out.... geee thanks for showing the exact place dude..
Do you tenderize the paua before frying it? When I lived in California many years ago we had to do that after slicing or it was super tough. You are getting your "money's worth" out of that old plastic jug you use as a float!!
Yeah so to tenderize I put the paua in a pot of boiling water for 30 seconds and then straight into a bowl of ice water, that does the trick nicely! Cheers!!!
@@KerryFlowers Wow, we used to beat them with a tenderizing hammer! Wish I would have known about your trick back then. BTW Abalone have been on the no take list in California for about the past 10 years or so.
great video ya should have had harlem go with ya bro
Harlem did come in and have a dive that day but he came in later and I wanted to make the most of the fantastic conditions in the early morning as it wasn't as good by the time he arrived...Cheers!!!
You're on bro
Cheers!!!
I have always been curious, what cameras do you use when you dive?
Just gopros, I'm currently using the hero 11...Cheers!!!
Thanku for the mean vid chur
Your welcome! Cheers!!!
There are white shark 🦈 heir
Paua steaks only for the kaimahi
Mmm paua steaks! Do the mahi and get the treats! Cheers!!!
Kerry where's this place??
Wellington is all I can say - the locals get mad if I give away all the spots. Cheers!!!
Where is this in wellington ?
South coast...Cheers!!!
hay brother kerry are you head down south??
At this time I've decided not to come to the south island for a bunch of reasons, definitely want to do a trip there in the future but want to make sure there is enough time to experience all that there is to offer...cheers!!!
can you keep the paua hua for me please mate :D
I must give it a go again! I tried it years ago and found it really bitter but maybe I just got a bad one! Cheers!!!
Kerry 🤿🤿🤿🤿Moa point Flowers.
