We all need to help get his videos out there . We all need to like and share these videos . !! Love the content.!!
Thank you!!! Liking and sharing helps keep this thing growing!
Is doing all this easier without a wetsuit I'm confused on if a wetsuit is even worth getting
All that talk about cubera makes me so excited for the vid of the record!
It looks giant
Total respect for your responsible sportsman's attitude. No need to shoot more fish when the freezer is full; and now they can just keep growing. Excellent content.
Thank you!!!
But then he shot the cobia… ! Real sportsman attitude
I'm 32 years old and I've only been to the ocean one time when I was a kid and watching this guy spearfish in the ocean is awesome as crazy and I would love to go out there and join him one time and let him teach me how to do it myself keep up the content bro
BTW: it was 100% the right call to slow everything down and be very careful about retrieval of your fish and spear. Safety first; and as soon as one guy asks for help or a hand, you know it's because they have something sketch underwater and everything else comes to a screeching halt until the safety issue is done with. Awesome crew to have with you.
Living the dream my brother. You are living the dream-thank and praise God. I'm rejoicing with you as I live vicariously through your awesome videos. I love it.
I appreciate it!!! Glad you are enjoying!!
When that cobia first swam up and got close I thought she was big! I figured you were just gonna think “eh she’s big and sounds good” 😂 That pole spear in the rig would make me way nervous. Especially having to go down in the murk and grab it. Fuck getting tangled, that hungry bull shark darting around is all that would be running In my head
finaly some spearfishing content
💪💪💪
Two things that are incomprehensible. One, after finally getting the Cobia up to the surface you left him in the water for a really long time with your legs dangling next to him. A Bull shark could get a chunk of your Cobia and your right foot for flavoring in the blink of an eye. I have seen them attack fish on the surface next to a boat. Second, apparently you put the fish back into the water after removing the spear which is also sketchy. When you add this to shooting a large strong fish with a Pole spear at depth it becomes a poster child for unsafe practice. Maybe in the future you could highlight some safer spearfishing practices just for a change of pace.
It's the rating's man got have some danger, or it not good tube, could you hear the jaws theme.ha,ha.he's young full of twisted steel and sex appeal, next he will shot us a vid at night on full moon, and sneak up on black grouper sleeping on the bottum,and 14ft tiger swimming around,it look like the same day but have on differant night.da,dom,da,dom,da,dom.
Even light in the shows COLORS..
You definitely pushed the limits on that cobia! I've caught them on kayak w hook & line and it pulled 300 lbs of yak (+me and gear) for 20 minutes. I would worry that cobia on your reel would entangle you in the structure. You were smart to tie him off and take several dives to retrieve him.
That is some beautiful water, I sure miss it, I was hard hat diver and did many rigs jobs from Furchon to Padre Island blocks. That
was back when AOL was the big deal. There is so much marine life along those rigs and structure, someone always brought
poles or spearguns, we had a blast during down time. Like that panga set you got, real simple, cuts through the water like
butter, and lots of room for stowing gear. With the crazy wind we get in Texas, the weather windows are far and few, anytime
you can make it out there, live it up. If you ever do guided trips let me know. Stay safe!
Awesome!!! Thank you for the kind words, you hit the nail on the head with that comment. Guided trips might be a possibility in the future.
Just got my first Cobia on polespear the same week 💪💪 great job dude
That’s awesome. It’s a trip for sure. Appreciate it 👊
Oh my...18:48...more than "sketchy"... And you know there's at least one Bull around. GREAT to watch...best "reality" show. 22:32... God loves a grateful heart 😉. 24:00... He took on some battle scars. Got to have something to eat. What a hog! 👋 Thankful for the happy ending and the cook portion 🙌
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Loving the content sir! Nothing makes a RUclips spearing video better than quality HEB products. Texas Tough foil and those Flavor Bomb Cherry Tom’s. Haha!
Lol thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!!!
Dude that rig was loaded. Awesome vid and content as always.
Thank you!!! Glad you enjoyed. It’s always good to see healthy amounts of fish on the rigs we have left. Unfortunately many of the rigs are getting completely removed.
Yuup, that truly sucks. I’m headed offshore next week to some of those rigs. Let’s hope for the best.
Luckily u landed that cobia great video and lovely catch 👍🏿🤜🏿✊🏿🇯🇲
Thankful it worked out… I appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed.
Jesus the orange fluro color of that Snapper doesn't seem real.. Love the Mahi Mahi color scheme on your fins too.
The way the red snapper light up is a sight that never gets old!
Appreciate it !
The foreshadowing is funny lol
👊👊
Wiiih mantul bening jooos🤙
Awesome fish man, great catch, if I’m ever in your part of the world I’m giving you a call😂 luv the cook up too👍😎
Nice video. Everyone waiting on the cubera, it's in the media everywhere. My book is out officially Oct 1st The Man Who Loved Spearfishing. 60 years of short stories from 1961 to 2018. Also an article in Spearing about spearfishing today. You are an inspiration to young divers on a budget. 30+ Ft Contenders with trip 300's $$$$$ seem to rule spearfishing news.
Thank you! The cubera has quite the story behind it that not many know yet. www.fieldandstream.com/fishing/world-record-cubera-snapper/
Looking forward to your book! That will be an awesome read!!!
haha all I need is something to get me out there! Pangas can take some slop. Many believe you need a big fancy offshore boat to get out and enjoy offshore. I guess it depends on how much you can tolerate some spray and a bumpy ride..
@@BradenSherron youth. I need a yacht with diving platform :)
Wow that very sketchy, I would not have been able to get that cobia out of there! Definitely had some luck in your favor on that one man, congrats on your first cobia on polespear
Thank you! Definitely got lucky. Not a situation I’d like to have happen often though lol.
@@BradenSherron LOL ? This is how spearfisherman lose their lives.
@@ashbyt1 Lol what do you expect him to do, that's a really expensive set up and he is an elite diver. Worth a shot and it paid off
The panga is the killer, in Latin America it handles very rough sea well. How far do you go offshore on this boat? Do you have any plan B if the motor stops working? Nice video though.
congrats on that cubera man. Still watching your videos.. Getting after it!
Thank you!!!!
That's a beautiful snapper .
Yes it was!
@@BradenSherron next time safe me the head. Smiles
Wow amazing,brother.always succes
Thank you!
that pull spear is not expensive than your life you have another day to live bro be safe well done bro
Favorite offshore snack
hard to beat it!
Hi , May I ask How long is the polespear you used in this video ? Carbon Fiber , 14mm Diameter ? Thank you
That's nice
💪💪
You missed the grouper from 6;01 to 6:03 swim behind the rig let from right to left.
Wow
👊👊
Just got my first speargun JBL 38 Special. Spent the weekend in Corpus Christi and the water on the jettys was too murky. But thanks for the vids!
The cobia trusted you 🥺
Trabalhoso tirar esse da água parabéns
Thank you! It definitely was
Im new to DIVING i need to know, HOW DO YOU KNOW THERES NO MAN EATING SHARKS WHILE JUMPING IN? Is jumping into the deep blue ever scary???
I hate the dense murk layers at the towers, they're so sketchy!!
Even worse the sharks sit in them waiting for you to shoot a fish!!
Great stuff
Thank you!!!
Cool video. Glad to see another conservationalist.
Thank you! Glade you enjoyed. I've seen too many rigs get wiped out so I'd like to keep the fish filled ones fishy!
Nice fish!
Thank you!
Cobia baby...I feel pitiful.
But... congratulations on your catch.
Let’s goooo
👊👊👊
What kind of belt reel do you have? And where can I get one?
Rob allen belt reel. I got mine on amazon but it looks like they are out of stock. I would check the rob allen website.
Cool😎👍
Thank you!!
How far offshore are you in that boat?
Hey man love your videos, quick question how many miles out do you usually go ?
All depends, I do a lot of different stuff so there’s not really a usual distance offshore. Anywhere from right off the beach to 70 miles is where I’ve taken the panga.
Glad you enjoy them! I appreciate it.
Hi guys
I am new in the spear fishing world
I was wondering if you can provide the brand of the spear gun you use in their episode or one you recommend?
hi, what's the soundtrack you used? thanks.
Wow nice
Appreciate it! 👊
What polespear are you using?
Why don’t you guys bring a set of tanks for this situation? Also…. Why don’t you guys get shark shields so you never have to worry about it?
Hey bro what are your settings for the gopro? I have a hero10 but idk what settings to use for spear fishing
60 frames per second for sure. I like ‘wide’ but is personal preference. As far as resolution 1080, 2.7k or 4K, but the higher the res the faster the battery will drain.
@@BradenSherron Thank you 👍
Can I take a wild guess that nautilus spearfishing set you up with that gun and reel lol
Lol I believe it was nautilus, about 6 years ago.
hell yeah i have a very similar set up w/ one of my guns lol
why would anyone use margarine?...
M gustaría ir de pesca con ustedes soy d Houston soy Pescador submarino y acabo d llegar d Cuba
I have relocated to Galveston. Any recommendations on who takes spearfishing charters out to rigs near Galveston?
Thanks
It is difficult. Fishing charters insurance does not cover diving. Best bet is go to dive shops and inquire.
That looks like a sweet little boat, what size is it?
25 imemsa panga
Thanks for your videos, now where you buy it that boat ? I like , looks like comercial,
Glad you enjoy them! This boat is a one of a kind setup- built from the hull up. Everything’s for sale for the right price..
@@BradenSherron How much you want ,
Boat and motor , I am in Vero beach Florida and you ?
@@josehechavarria2003 email me at bradensherron@yahoo.com
Awesome..
halo.,.

HOW did you get that PANGA ???LET me know
It’s all custom built! One of a kind build from the hull up.
How far out did you go? Nice reds man!
Wen they are that big u don’t shot then because the bigger the fish the more eggs it could have
No cheek meat smh. Great catch
Hey Man, what kind of camera do you use?

I live on South LA and would love to go do this. How far offshore do you have to go to get to a rig?
They have rigs as close as just a couple of miles off the coast of LA. However, having good vis at the rigs would be almost never and they really wouldn’t be deep enough to hold a good amount of big fish
@@DFrostyy How far offshore to get to a rig with good vis and and fish? Is there map?
@@johnduvalcaffery a lot of different things factor into the visibility. They do make charts that you can pick up that label rig blocks and platforms and other miscellaneous fish habitat. What part of the state are you trying to dive? Venice, Grand Isle/Fourchon, Cameron? If you go out of veince you can get to deeper water sooner. Deeper water usually holds bigger fish(not always). Really need to watch the weather and how much rain is coming through this will all play an affect on vis. I’ve been to rigs that are blue one weekend and have a 30’ murk layer the next.
I see your only using the top wetsuit jacket and a weight belt and no legs why?
The water temp is in the 80’s and the suit is 3.5mm! Didn’t wanna cook, but come to find out my legs are pretty negative so I gotta wear the full suit to breathup the best.
@@BradenSherron ahh ok I see people doing it on videos and it makes me wonder why. I just sent a 3m open cell wetsuit back to mako because it was to small and when I tried it on I was sweating so bad. I'm new to this stuff I live on the treasure coast of FL
@@BradenSherron these are great tips!!! can you explain the breath up better? im a noob and last 3 times i went diving i could only stay down 20 seconds!!!
Hi man please buy a proper scale and tape measure. Tools of the trade, you need them. Nice videos I like them.
I stumbled across your Channel, I do enjoy your videos. I do have a question, Why dont you brain, bleed, and gut in the water? There doesnt seem to be sharks in the water that are in a frenzy. Sharks dont usually come up once the fish is against your body. Just wanted to pick your brain. Keep up the videos. Cant wait for your channel to blow up!
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Thank you!!!
