HUGE Dentex Spearfishing goes wrong in remote Greek islands... Pt.2
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 фев 2025
- Greece has been a destination I've never had much success with when it comes to spearfishing. The deep water, excellent visibility and shy fish make it one of the hardest places to spear a fish on earth. Luckily I've been under the guidance of an extremely experienced diver in the area, Clauss. The things he's taught me over the past few afternoon have been critical for me being able to start to shoot fish here. I see some absolutely monster dentex but things don't go to plan...

Bravissimo Daniel! Sono felice per te!
Grazie Antonio!
Those ascents, bro. Nice and smoothe. Good job, DMann.
Appreciate it!
Wow those dentex look like one hell of a challenge!
Biggest challenge I’ve had spearfishing yet.
I seriously cant comprehend how you have not reached a million subs yet!
Thank you!
Congratulations!!! Dentex in Greek waters is the holy grail, and I’m glad you finally got one fair and square. Welcome to the club!!!
Thank you very much! Just need a proper big one like the ones I saw!
Beautiful moments👍👍
Bella cattura e bella cottura complimenti Daniel per la cattura ed alla cuoca per la cottura.
This channel drives to the next level in spearfishing
Thank you!
Greece has been on my to do list for a while now. Your journey to get these Dentex has been incredibly fun to watch!
Thank you!
Reward for perseverance Dan!
Lots of perseverance on these things!
Hey Dan, I'm Sam an Aussie living in Oaxaca, Mexico. If your interested in diving in Mexico I am more then happy to take you out and show you around here, we are going 6 days a week and the Esky is always full. We are not a charter we are just some spearos. Lets me know if your interested!
Cheers Sam! Shoot me an email with some more details 👌
@@DanielMann Just sent you the details mate
mf you just rizzed dan up😂
Been looking forward to this 😊 Lovely fish mate 👏👏
Thanks Kevin, maybe next year one over 5kg like yours 💪
Great one mate, congrats for the well deserved Dentex which looked perfectly cooked!!!
That one fish between the rest did look pretty big but the distance was great and I also think you aimed a bit low maybe…?
Thanks Dimos, the Greek oil made it 💪 Yes I think way too far away and a low shot. The 115 inverted roller I have coming will be much better suited.
Well done daniel! The queen has fallen😉. Next challence white grouper!?!
I think a nice dusky is my next target.
Yes! Next to the queen its allways the king👍
I think that everyone who has been following your channel for a while is excited and happy to see you finally succeed in catching a Dentex in the Mediterranean. I can't wait to see you catch a big grouper too.
congratulations 👏
Thank you! Might have to wait until next year for the big grouper 😁
That other dentex looked HUGE mate good luck catching them.. i love these videos in the Mediterranean since im from malta 🇲🇹
It had massive big lips on it too. Hopefully I get another opportunity at them in the future.
@@DanielMann yeah i could tell it was massive from the huge destinct tail on it
Congratulations for the capture. Another amazing vídeo. I identify with your obsession with dentex, where I live there are none, and this summer I made two attempts without luck, I will continue in the fight. Thanks for sharing.
Nice fish mate 👍
Loving the videos. Very good as usual. Great seeing other locations.
Thanks Tom!
Definitely living your dream mate. Keep up the great content.
What a beautiful place. Great video🔥🔥
It really is!
Amazing video as always. GREAT people like Klaus are worth there weight in dentex gold. Hope to see you with many more. that's two buddy great start.
On-Ya Dan 👍
Another great video Dan! I like the diving and shooting part of your videos but the best one is when you enjoy your catch with friends and family. when all the hard work turns into a lush diner!
Cheers Zibb, it’s the icing on the cake that’s for sure.
Those fish that got away looked huge, beautiful fish you shot though, congrats
They were staunch, next time…
Another great upload! Can never get enough of this channel
Thank you!
So glad you managed to get one mate. Still chasing mine ahah !
I know the feeling!
Very humble in every video, just like we should all be around the sea.
Thank you!
Awesome video brother, beautiful work, lots of love
Been loving the regularity of your content while youre on holidays keep it up til it warms up over here in Aus!!
Cheers Liam, I was in Australia last month and this month. Was certainly warm enough in Brisbane ☀️
Heartbreaker on that first fish, but great job on that second one! Always look forward to your videos!
Thanks Roland 🙏🏻
Daniel, womderful video, as always the best quality ! I live in Bulgaria and i go spearfishing in the Black sea, its the most difficult place for spearfishing, i think everyone should try it in order to understand how difficult it could be)
Thanks Artem, I’ve heard even less fish than Mediterranean.
@@DanielMann i would say we only have few species that we can shoot and the visibility is terrible ) but i think when i will visit some better places i will be a pro because i learned how to shoot tiny red mullets from a huge distance 😉
Well done, persistance paid off. Really enjoy your content and always look forward to watching more. Keep doing what your doing!
Cheers Mitchell!
hope to some day meet you daniel and spearfish with you! Much love from Greece :)
Thanks Skoutel!
Another great content 👌👌👌👌
Love the video very unlucky man, I missed a yellow tail king fish here in tassie Australia a year back so I get the feeling, looking forward to your next vid!
Cheers Ethan, that would have been an amazing fish for Tasmania. I presume they don’t get many of them?
@@DanielMann yeah only come down from mainland in the summer with the east Australian current, very rare to find still and very sort after
good my friend
Very happy for that dentex! They are really difficult to catch. And the bigger ones..you can be happy if you get to see them in the distance...great video as always:)
Amazing video Daniel. Been watching you for quite a while now and seeing you catch the dentex the trophy fish that every spearo dreams of brings a smile to my face. And I suggest you to use invert roller spearguns in the range of 110 and 115 cm when hunting in the med, since fish are alot more spooked than curious and greater range with no recoil. Anyways amazing video and fish and cooking, you never disappoint in your videos and more creative by time, and was wondering when or if you are going to Collab with spearfishing life. Thank you,
Dive safee!!
Thankyou Marc, I’ve actually got a 115 orca inverted roller on the way. I agree it would have been a massive help in these fish. Hopefully next year I can dive with Dimos 👌
Big inspiration
Thanks Ahmed!
Süper video 👍❤
Mann that was a huge Dentex, and the one you speared pretty damn good ... Got me dreaming about another med trip 😁
Let’s do it!
Great seeing your hunt was successful. You continue to deserve it.👍
Thanks 👍
YEW! congrats man! sick fish
Cheers!
Great content 👌 keep up the good work!
You should have went back to the right side of the boulder, you would have been face to face with the 10 kilo dentex! She would surely turn around the rock to take another peek at you, your ambush was perfect but you got a little bit too excited seeing this beast and took a hasty shot, happens to me all the time, especially at the end of my breath... nevertheless you got one of them beauties (I still haven't).
Thank you for the great video, I love your channel!
Can feel the frustration through the screen 😅
Nice Danny, that 7 kilo giant on the background though will be in your dreams for a good few years. Much love :)
I’ve woken up in cold sweats a few times since 😅
denteeeex!!!
great video. patience and perseverance pays off. congrats
Cheers Dave!
Cheer up mate! after spearfishing in the Mediterranean anywhere else in the world would be piece of cake! great channel!
I felt bad in New Zealand after Greece, the fish were just too easy and plentiful.
Hey Daniel! Congrats on your first Dentex in our country!
Thanks Andrian!
I happen to had vacation on the peloponesos, very hard to find the locations can name the spot? Or at least which region
We all make mistak but don`t give up and keep it up
Can only learn and move forward 😁
nice catch
Thank you!
@@DanielMann i'm a big Fan😊🤟 long time ago😊
Damn, shame about the monster, but now he will be even bigger when you return 😅 but nice fish in the end! I was wondering the other day… are we gunna see the return of the long-haired dan anytime?
Cheers Ben, I don’t think the long hair is going to make a comeback 😅
@@DanielMann 😢
such beautiful sea bottom and structure. Shot and cooked to perfection.
I see you carry a GoPro with the headband on top of the hood. Aren't you worried that it would come off in the water? Is it uncomfortable to wear it under the hood? Do you shoot Natural Colors or Flat Mode? thank you!
Hey Stefano, I tuck the band under the snorkel and have never lost one since doing this method. I shot flat and a few other protune settings and then grade it in resolve.
@@DanielMann Daniel, thanks. Good to know. I shoot flat as well, and color correct in Final Cut. in the north Atlantic the water is very green and often dark, so the correction is breaks down the image.
Congrats amigo. It would be nice if you added max depth and dive time for us rookies🤙🏼
Thanks Felipe, those numbers aren’t too relevant really. Strive to learn fish hunting skills and depth & bottom time will come in due course.
I saw those same helicopters while snorkeling last month!
It’s quite saddening to think people may be losing houses or lives.
Wowwwwww nice catched idol
Hey dan hope you are doing good. I want to ask you and get you opinion on the orca v115 and how good is it
I just got one Mohamed. It's a brilliant speargun and I used it in Spain - had to have one myself!
How can you hold your breath so long, any tips?
Amazing video as always cheers from Croatia
I’ve got a video about holding your breath which might be helpful. But in this instance it was because I had been diving all summer and very dive fit.
Thank you man i will check it!
So messed up thing happened in Florida about 20 years ago. That goes with your experience with the fire chopper. A guy out spearfish in full scuba diving gear. Was found in the middle of a burned out wildfire. After a few days trying to figure out how he got there. They figured out he was in the same spot as where the fire chopper was getting it's water. and was scooped up and dropped on the wildfire. That shit can only happen in Florida
That is a crazy story, poor scuba diver!
@@DanielMann yep one hell of a way to go out.
@@eryck123 CSI Miami had an episode about it 10 years after it actually happened I lived in Florida at the time I know what I'm talking about
@@eryck123 Plus the man's was from north of Pinellas County / Tampa area. And his wife sued the s*** out of the state and won.
My proof is it made the front page of my local news paper. The St. Pete times. Search there records time frame was between 92-96 I was still in high School and was spending my weekends spearfishing. So I had I reason to worry about it as a free diver. Look it up I've given you all the info you need.
Well done Daniel - at last! Really pleased for you. Thanks for sharing it with us.
You should come to the south coast of Western Australia🐟
Where can i buy this amazing T-Shirt?
Thanks for the support Andre!
Another great video Daniel. Keep up the great work. Secondly great to see you in a YAKKIDA tee on Instagram the other day. The Boyos are stoked. 🤙🏾🤙🏻
Cheers Gareth, wore it loads in NZ & Australia 💪
Hey! I am from Sweden and have begun spearfishing myself, I am currently visiting the United States and I'm in Florida, I want to rent a boat with my father and go out but I was curious to ask, if you are able to go on a boat into the ocean do you think there will always be spearfishing spots despite location?
If you get the navionics app for your area you should always be able to find something to dive.
What time of year is this, Daniel?
July
Yiew! yeah bro:) awesome fish - well done. QQ: are you using a O-Rong over the flopper all the time now?
Cheers Isaac! This side of the world yes. For the U.K. stuff it helps when working around kelp and string weed so it doesn’t get caught. Also great for holes so it doesn’t snag. In the Mediterranean it’s for stealth and also the hole hunting.
I used one in NZ with Jackson shields for the snapper snooping so presume he has it on there for the kelp reasons. In Australia there wasn’t a need.
Good 🏆 🏆
You should hide your speargun to the last moment, and not exposing youself as much and dont have as much movement. Keep up the content👍
As a spearfishing god/idol to a rookie…. Whats your percentage of landing to missing fish? As for me it wreaks my head to miss something good and struggle to not get demotivated in the trip ive missed a solid fish. Would love to hear ur strike rate
It depends which country you are diving and the target species. I think as you stay in spearfishing longer you learn to take less low percentage shots. In Australia it’s very easy to hit everything you shoot at. I think I missed one fish out of 20-30 last month.
DENTEEEEEXXXXXX!!!!!!!
Congratulations, the Dentexes are hard earned! I've only seen one far, far far away in the big blue and that was already impressive!
Roller gun 🙏
New 115 inverted roller is almost here!
Can’t wait to see you use it thank you for the amazing content you always put out
Is this in chios
No, Peloponnesus
Have you ever been shot a big octopus?
I’ve only shot one octopus in Portugal.
Himself is the only person that has been in this situation and is not a member and has been in the same situation since then so I think he should be able to be a member of this group and I think that is the best thing to do for the people who have a chance of being in the tthis time around so I think it’s important that he has a good chance of getting the job and that is what I would like him to be able and do that to himself so he is able and I hope that to get the best of his self to get out and get his job so that he’s in this situation I don’t think he’s not going anywhere but he needs to get a good job he needs a good friend of his own to get his life is not to be able and he has needs a job and that will help him his life and his life and his life and is not a bad thing person he needs a friend that he is not going to get his life and to be honest he is needs a job good luck and with you the rest is life going to get be OK I and is not he is not he I have to go and get a good life job I will go and I have to a good job I will do it and I am a not so good much better than that and I am I he as will have to be good job I have to a good life is not good luck and I am so I will see him I will be there for him you have to be honest with me I am not gonna get out there to me I am a very good man and I’m I will do you have to a great day job I love will see him you honest with me or honest with me I don’t know 🤷♀️ what he can get better ❤️🩹 you can know me that I honest with me and honest with me is that you honest with me I honest with me so you I love will always be there for to you and always will and be there always for your heart ♥️ to and you with me or with me always be love you always 🥰 always be have a nice 😊 day ahead always love ❤️ and with me and with me and I always have with me I with me I will love you forever and always and forever and always ever and forever ♾️ forever and always love ❤️ you and always and forever always love and you forever always my heart love you always and 5:52
You dive well but you need to upgrade your gun
Clauss has shot more dentex on a single band 75cm conventional speargun than I have even seen in my life. My technique and hunting need work, not my gun.
Killing adventure :(
