- ko-fi.com/bloudam Please help make my dream come true. Click on the link and buy me a coffee.
We go spearfishing for musselcracker in one of the best known areas in the Garden Route, but Voelklip is known for the wrong reasons. So many people have died on this spot and it is very sad because it is also one of the most beautiful spots in the area.
Pottie is the only spearo that I will attempt to to crazy scary and stupid stuff like this as he knows this area very well. We went in on the flat and when you come out you on a wave.
Pottie managed to hunt down one of those elusive mussel crackers once again and all I could manage was a double up on bonnies and both got away. i hope you enjoy the episode.

Jandre, if I may mention a little something about upgrading outboards. You say 40hp or 50hp and preferably 4 stroke. I agree 100% that 4 stroke is the way to go. Personally I'd go for 60hp for this simple reason:
The weight of 40, 50 and 60hp (Yamaha and Suzuki) motors is exactly the same. So, whether you choose any of those on the weight on the transom is the same - and I'd always opt for the 60hp because of that. When you need power, you need power. But that's me. I recon Gecko will be fine with 40hp or 50hp, but awesome with 60hp. Great video! Well done.
Thank you so for the info. I hope i get enough coffees to buy those 60 4 strokes
just depends how big is the wallet....
Voice overs during entries and exits are really cool. Also if anything unexpected happens or something that may need more context the voice over is a really nice thing to add to the videos to make the viewer understand more about whats going on in the videos and in your head at the time. Great video as always and keep up the hard work 👍
Glad you like the voice over
Voice overs are a very good addition for details that matter! I like the new addition to your videos.
Glad you like them!
Great video. Voice overs are great. Maybe you could try and do a podcast some or other time where you share dive stories that were not caught on camera with the guys.
That's a great idea!
Awesome video Blommie, looked amazing
Will only dive there with Pottie.
Have to do that everytime I surf. One time waves were huge when I jumped and leg rope caught on a rock. I was hanging upside down with a big wave coming. Luckily my friend was there behind me and un hooked my rope before I got smashed.
That is very lucky
I was there years ago and a mate of mine had to abandon his spear gun to get out , not a place for inexperienced divers , that was the last time he ever dived there.
Not a place where you want to learn how to dive
I've fished there plenty.. there where you guys came out, 20m back towards the point, there are 2 ledges, like steps , about 30cm high. I've landed big sharks there as it is sheltered from the open sea too. Very easy entry point too... BUT, LIKE YOU SAID... V.E.R.Y. D.A.N.G.E.R.O.U.S. spot .... calm conditions only!!
keep up the informative vid's.. 👊🚤🐟
Thanks for that info. Will check it out next time
If you'd like some advise in my comment I'd say that with an entry and exit if you have float line let out I alway wrap it around my muzzle and handle in a figure 8 so my float is close and I don't have line that can get stuck 😆
Also, once in the water I use my rubber (if it's not a roller) around my arm to have an extra hand to get my fins on fast.
Stay safe and straight spares X)
Definitely. My ropes were everywhere
MR Blom, is potties diving with a 3mm or 5mm pathos open cell ? Thank you
Jys net te laat jy moes n brief vir kersvader gestuur het vir nuwe motors. 😆 Sterkte awesome video. Julle manne duik nou mal plekke stay safe ✌️
Ek dink nie kersvader help met sulke geskenke nie of jy moet jou kersvader se nr stuur asb
Dit is n "bucket list" spot vir my om te duik, maar ek sal heel eerder n boat dive daar wil doen, daai bult is nie n grap nie. As daar een ou is om n risky duik saam met te doen en jou gemaklik te laat voel is dit Potty👍👍
Definitief nie Hein nie whahah
Lanklaas gesien pella hoop alles nog shanana.
Amazing diving spot and will definitely dive it again
amazing
Glad you think so!
And another comment XP
Your voice overs are lekker, but what isn't is the spashing of water on a gopro. Maybe with the voice over talk through what you and your dive mate are talking about, what you thinking and maybe bring song music back in the background 😀
And some South African music would be 100's
Thanks for the advice
nee ok! next time you will not be so scared
real men salute!!!!
Respect!!!
Will always be scared there
Voice over works. Thanks
So nice of you
Daar yster crackers agter daai ledge daar voor aan regterkant jy duik so in die foam af pella hulle dik daar by tye. Maar yes daai plek moet mooi wees dag as jy daar inval en die terugloop is ook nie grap nie lol.
Classic
Blom: So Pottie.. Is the exit easier than the entry.
3 second silence
Pottie: NEE! 😂
NOt a man of meany words, but trust what he says. 😜 Legend Pottie. Thanks Blom great voice over and episode!
Glad you guys enjoyed it
If Pottie starts his own channel I would love to know
He does not dive with a gopro but his channel would be epic. He is a legend
Love your videos .the ones without white sharks.Dit maak my kak bang.
Nee man. Die haaie is okay
I just won't get out, I guess I live in atlantis now
Gecko gaan nou die Legavaan raak 🦎 met haar nuwe motors.
Ek hoop maar ons kan haar upgrade
Stupid question!! You ever dived and speared mosselbay Harbour in the vicinity of the fish process factory.. sitting at kaai 4 braai imagining what could be swimming in that area?
Dove there a month ago. Within 20min police patrol boat were on top of us giving us lip claiming its part of portnet.. 😜 Jammer officer. 😜 Back in 91 I saw some nice steenbras on the edge almost in the harbours entrance and tails.
I think that area is off limits for fishing
Op daai vraag,daar by santos se rotse. Wat kan n mens daar verwag random net so onder 10m diep
Was that a shark in one of the dives? didn't you call for the fish with the throat?
Yes it was a shark but he did not bother me. If you make any sound for a mussel cracker they are gone. They dont respond to those
I use to spear fish until my mate and I had a incident with a dolphin that looked like the size of a bus and lost all my gear and to be honest it has put so much fear in me that I have never gone back in 10 years. This was off Umdloti and I thought fuck if this is what happens when a pissed off dolphin what would happen if its a shark. SHit
Dont live in fear. Get back on the horse. Who want to die in a bed 🛏 at 98?😜
There you go. Get in the water man
May I ask where about this spot is. I would love to go throw some spoon there for the Bonnie's?
Voelklip near Haroldsbay
Lekker. Kap hulle
Ek soek nog
how deep is that spot? 12-20?
12 13m
What type of boat is The Gecko ?
She is a 15.6 Super Dolphin
pottie is crazy
You can say that again. But he is amazing good
Yes. Do the voice over
Net vir jou
Well that looked rather murky and barren. Kudos fir your commitment.
Dodgy stuff
👻
😁
Hi Mr blom can you please send me a hoodie blue small
😁
To risk your life for a fish in such a dangerous spot ? Not worth it. There are many other safer spots.
Not many places that has the kind of eish I am looking for 😁
So I notice that you make a habit out of spearing endemic fish species which take a relatively long time to mature, and are thus vulnerable to overfishing. Wow, you must really be proud of yourself.
Another keyboard warrior. Is this also a black mussel cracker like your previous comment when you could not identify a white mussel cracker.
Like I said before. Here is my number. Call me 0829590111. Keyboard warrior
@@Bloudam When you get cross, it means I own you,
but don't worry. I don't need to do anything to you - you make your own karma, and by the looks of things, it's not pretty ;)
@@Bloudam Like I said, you make your own karma. Enjoy
Dude I think you mean well but dammit stop with all this dangerous "dont try this" and dangerous all that. Yes some guys read the ocean better than some and some guys spearfish better than other but at the end of the day everyone who wants to spearfish will spearfish whether is dangerous or not. No need to add drama. I've been doing it for 34 odd years but I have yet to dissuade people. Never made a cent off of it and never intend to. Your "warnings" is border line psychotic. In a previous video you reminded viewers you provided lessons, yes? Does the warning serve as a marketing tool? if so it is a bad business model, period. It certainly is no more dangerous than riding a bike in city traffic or surfing near rocks or being married 40 years. Relax!!! Make it fun for people to come to you. don't add drama.
Thank you for the comment.
