  • 2:32-2:49 i orgasmed

  • if i were spear fishing i would shot any fish

  • i woulda pounded that big pike at 1:32 that thing is a pig i woulda stuck those muskies too hahah big bastards jeez you shootin outta mille lacs or what haha

  • Great pike, shame to spear them.

  • @SissingPyd - No Pike were harmed in the making of this video. I promise!

  • @whopperhead lol what about related species found in north america?

    I'm from the UK we only have what you call Northern Pike. It's my most prized sport fish. I love to catch and return them. My personal best pike is currently 25lb 7oz.

    Due to illness it looks like it will be my lifetime best. Seeing that type of fish killed makes me shudder.

  • @SissingPyd - We do not and have never speared/killed any Northern Pike. I know in my video it looks as though I speared a MUSKIE - but it is the angle of the camera. I actually shot a carp behind it. It is illegal to shoot pike here in Wisconsin.

  • Looks @#$!!!! cold!!! YouTube....oahusquid....check out the HUGE tiger shark my son and I ran into while spearfishing in Hawaii last month.

  • you guys have some freaking huge fish up there! Seems like all our big fish (in PA) come out at dusk... I've seen some huge walleye though...

  • Excellent music selection (;

  • I'm guessing the Muskeye were out of season? or can you even fish them at all?

  • @stinkyfarts445 - Can NOT spear them. You can catch them hook and line. But I would never want to eat one. They are full of Mercury.

  • did u hit that northern on 1:24?

  • @memaster4 - No, it was about a foot ahead of the carp I shot. In the original video that is longer and not on here, you see the carp I fight. The angle of the camera, makes it look closer to my speargun than it really is. And its a Muskie.

  • me and my cus spear fish at mabey pond with no gun just home made spears and catch carp all the time its the real way to spearfish. if you wanna know how we made our spears we got steel pipe and welded a grinded steel home made arrow head to the top

  • @666ToyotaSupra - That's Awesome Dude! Good that you guys get them Primitive Style. I do from time to time use a Pole Spear. I actually prefer it. But near impossible to make a video and pole spear at the same time. I would need someone there to video me.

  • Fucking freezzing:\

    

  • What type of speargun do you use? I'm interested in starting spearfishing, but i don't know what type/brand to get that will be strong enough to penetrate carp?. I've been looking at a jbl magnum.

  • @hansch10 - I use a HammerHead Evolution 75cm. I used the Hammerhead on carp with only 1 band!!! It's very powerful and accurate. Highly recommended!!!

  • Anyone interested in getting into this sport should take this Course- Offered in Wisconsin!!!!

    check out the Wisconsin Speargun Hunter page on Facebook for more information.

  • you can spear bluegill and rockbass in WI right?

  • @burmkilla - Yes, in most counties and Lakes. There are some regulations to certain counties and Lakes. There is a SPEARING AND TRAPPING REGULATION Book out there. I would double check, depending on where it is you plan on spearing.

  • why you don t kill that crazy enormous pikes

  • @JoaoAugusto13 - Those crazy enormous pike are Muskie and it's illegal to shoot Pike or Muskies in Wisconsin.

  • what underwater camera did u use

  • @bassmaster11294 - I use a JVC ENVIRO HD. Ikelite housing,

  • Great song, Great vid, lots of huge fish, was goin crazy at the sight of all those big panfish Haha

    Was that like a warm water outlet from a Hydroelectric generator of something?

    And how long do you guys dive for?

  • @TheCrazedFisherman - IT's a warm water discharge from a power plant.

    We dive in the winter for about 2 hours, in the spring -summer - fall can go anywheres from 2 - 8 hours.

  • @whopperhead - Is that a wet suit? It looks too tight to be a dry suit. What water temps?

  • @iammike111 - It is a Wet Suit. It's called a OPEN CELL Interior Wetsuit - Neoprene on the outside. They seal against your body and keep you warm. The water temp was about 34 F not directly in front of the out flow. In the Outflow it was about 54. We usually stay in the water for a few hours.

  • @whopperhead So its not legal to spear muskies than? Which was my question and I researched this by asking the DNR and it is nowhere legal to spear Muskies in WI or the bordering waters. But thanks for the response. Looks like fun...

  • cool vid, feed the muskies by hand with the dead carp and post the video no 1 has ever done that b4 i wana c if u survive :)

  • @GBdefender - actually a dive buddy of mine has fed the muskie dead bluegills by hand.  I'll try to get it on video next time.

  • yea same i live up north,i dont actually dive here,but when i go in southern countries im just amazed ,just bein underwater is an incredible experience, tried to hunt with some hawaian sling but i only catch 1 nassau grouper and a few lobster,kinda hard to hit while freediving when theres a lot of waves =S

  • idk if these guys tried but its way funnier in warm waters lol

  • @landryqc - I've been in the Atlantic - water temp was around 70. I was like a kid in a Candy Store. I Loved It!!! Wish I didn't live 2,000 miles away.

  • This is not hunting

  • @skyspay1 - Your right. It's called SPEARFISHING.  (said really slow and loud)

  • why dont you shoot the muskies?

  • @XXGOLDENXXDRAGONXX - It's illegal. They are Game fish. Cannot shoot any Game Fish. PLUS, they are loaded with Mercury. Very toxic to eat.

  • that musky looked like it was ready to kick ur ass. and it probably could :P

  • @glenandgibbert - They have bumped into us in an aggressive manner. I don't challenge them!

  • Wow! Great video, even the panfish are lunkers! I had no idea you could wear a wetsuits for ice-diving, good to know--thx.

  • Nice video! those are some HUGE Musky!!! You guys are lucky, we can't shoot any bass or perch up here which sucks. Just carp, burbot and suckers. The burtbot are way too deep for me though :(

    How cold is that water? Makes me think I could be diving right now :D

  • @W4llyB4nger - water temp usually in the mid 30's (F)

  • @W4llyB4nger i'm pretty sure thats the same in wisconsin

  • @W4llyB4nger i'm pretty sure thats the same in wisconsin, and i think 1 was a northern

  • what lake is this?

  • @Funnykids50 - Lake Monona, Madison, WI

  • why not shot shoting pike??

  • @gaston48 - They are illegal to shoot. We can only shoot "Pan Fish" (Blue gills, Sunfish, Crappies, Perch) and "Rough Fish" (Carp, Suckers, Gar, Dogfish, Rock Bass, Striped Bass, Burbot, Freshwater Drum, Gizzard Shad)

  • props for not going after the muskies. but more props for removing the friggin carp!

  • wow fantastic adventure guys! why don't you shoot that giant fishes? (Northern Pikes, Jacks)

  • @piedem76 - It is against the law to shoot those big fish. In Wisconsin. 

  • @piedem76 - The Giant Fish (Muskie and Northern Pike) are "Game Fish" and is illegal to spearfish. Not to mention, If would be very unhealthy to eat Muskie from these waters. They have high levels of Mercury. The Pike are ok as long as you don't eat it often.

  • You are completely insane for diving in that cold. I just want to throw that out there. That said, WOW!! Are those muskie in suspended animation from the cold? They aren't skittish at all and that one old soldier is not gobbling up them blue gill and sunfish. Thats crazy!

  • @bloodterror77 Thank You! The muskies suspended are sitting in the warm water flowing out of that grate. it's about 15-20 degrees warmer in front of the grates. And I think the reason they aren't eating those panfish is because, that already have had their fill.  They have full bellies. I think they may be turning on the pipe again this year. It's been off for the last year and a half. More videos to come........hopefully

  • eww carp r so grooss there blood is brown

  • @ethantup - Their Blood is Red 

  • i hope you spear your self next time waste man

  • @druglordpk02 - Thank you- me too! Because it's much worse than being a DRUGLORD. Now get back on the short bus and go to school.

  • @druglordpk02 there carp no one cares about them and in some states the asian ones are so bad your not even suppose to let them go if you catch one

  • @666turbobusa - In Wisconsin too, with the Common Carp. If you catch one- it is illegal to put it back in the water or even leave it on the banks.

  • crazy whiteboys 

  • good on u for not shooting those big pike (well i think they are) because i would of atleast had to spear one. temptation is to great

  • spearfishing is fucking low !!!!

  • @WeedSpliffStar  - as compared to? Smoking WEED?

  • wow i never thought there could be so much activity in the winter!

  • @cardonaman - It is really only this "busy" because of the warm water discharge. When the pipe is off- the fish are not there.

  • Hey dude, fuck you for shooting that muskie... just kidding. Good pop control on those shitty carp. Question though, what do you actually do with the stringer of them?

  • @seairland312 - LOL. Thanks. Well, when I video was shot I had lots of acreage that I would use the carp as fertilizer. The food plots and other produce did awesome!!!! BUT, I now no longer have that land and so, as of this year- have not shot a single carp. I have no where to put them. They are still massive in numbers!!!!!!!

  • @whopperhead No shit, that's pretty funny. Well yeah dude, props on the video... VA spearos like myself tend to sketch out when the water's any less than 70 degrees so needless to say I experienced massive shrinkage watching this

  • is it illegal to spear muskies?

  • @jeffhoberg - YES! It's illegal to spear any GAME FISH. It may look like I shot that Muskie in the beginning, but it's the angle of the camera- I had shot a carp about 2 feet behind it. Not close to the muskie- the Muskie 'flinches' because of the sound and fast movement of the band of the speargun.

  • @whopperhead go hug a fucking tree you hippie eurotrash. you fuckers have no common sense.

  • @BigBlue10em - Not sure, but Are you calling ME "Hippie Eurotrash"? or was that meant for someone else? I'm obviously no tree huger. I promise you- I've never hugged a tree.

  • @whopperhead No sir. Just all the hippie PETA kooks.

  • damn id be to scared to spearfish in fresh water

    im more of a saltwater guy

  • @DrBlueBop  - Saltwater is awesome, but unfortunately I don't get there often enough. We make do with what we have :-)

  • THERES SOOOO MANY FISH!!! them muskies are huge to. that would be bad ass to see them underwater just sittin there

  • BEST freshwater spearfishing video I've seen thus far

  • @rjohansens Thank You! I'm working on another one in the next week or two that should turn out pretty awesome- Need a few more 'fish shots' and will get it out shortly.

  • two words-BAD ASS

  • YOUR A GOD LOL muskie53

  • spearing muskies. you guys fuckin piss me off

  • We didn't spear any muskies- never have. The angle of the camera appears that we did, but i shot a carp that was at least a foot behind that muskie in the beginning. I would NEVER shoot a muskie or Game Fish. Please ask questions before you get all pissed.

  • You guys are my new heroes! Great video!!!!

  • Thanks, I hope to put out more this up coming spring and summer!

  • dude that is really nice.....!!!all them pan fish and them big ass muskey.....

  • When that WARM WATER DISCHARGE is on - there are LOTS of Muskies, some of them will even come bump us out of their way.  Pretty cool

  • Insane guys... water has to be in the low 40's... you wearin' 7mm suits?

  • Water in front of the grate is about 54 degress F. 30 ft to either side of that grate is about 35 degrees. We wear 5mil OPEN CELL Interior suits. Keeps us warm for a few hours in the cold water.

  • You guys are Hardcore.

    That Musky looked like it didn't know whether to shit or go blind with all the superior apex predators around it.

    Do you ever scoop out a couple hundred of those sunnies and bluegills for a big ass fish fry? Out of cold water...Tasty.

  • @Gmissile - We are limited to 25 panfish for the day. we rarely take that many just what we are going to eat. Those muskies are pretty awesome.

    Thanks for the comment!

  • wtf dude in 1:27 u could shoot inthe head an u got it on the meat wtf

  • @14kevinnivek - different carp. I shot the one in the head and the other one I show at around 2:00 mins is a different one.

  • why was the musky pointed towards the cage?

  • @FishboiFishboi That is a gate- and where the Warm water is coming from. A Power plant about a block away pumps it's warm water into the lake at this spot

  • oh really? cool so that means during the cold months, such as winter, fish will be near dams. oh yeah what i wanted to know was will the fish still bite?

  • @FishboiFishboi - I've had Muskies nudge me, never been bit. The Big ones are intimidating, but I seriously doubt they would ever bite. If so, then I probably deserve it

  • lol what i meant was fishing terms. the type of lure selection

  • @FishboiFishboi - lol, I'm not sure, Large Spinner Baits is the only thing I've ever caught them on.

  • oh really? would they hit it during the winter? like the water you're in.. i was thinking maybe live bait

  • @FishboiFishboi - I'm not sure, I personally have caught more in spring (April/May) I don't think they are even legal to catch until the middle of May. I was to catch Bass or something and the muskies were chasing my bucktails around. I've never FISHED for Muskies at this spot. i have seen OTHERS try- but with THAT much live food around, no wonder they don't catch anything,

  • yup i agree. too much sunnies

  • hei what wetsuit do you use? how many mm?

  • @vivalabra We use "ELIOS" or OMER or BEUCHAT - usually 5mm

  • wow 5 mm is enogh? thats so cool

  • @vivalabra - If it's OPEN CELL Interior - 5mil is enough.

  • tool is the best!

  • can't say i've seen anything like this in freshwater. real cool guys!

  • ha, I live on this lake. I've never seen it from this view, really surprising to me too.

  • great fishing

  • Going under-water at that temperature to spear fish, that is for real man . I am a hard core fisherman, I can fish for three days in a row sleeping on a tent next to a body of water, but I never precticed any freediving, I admire your abilities. That is real fishing, after all you are leaving your element to catch these animals.

  • @aprendizdehumano - Thanks! I use to do regular fishing all the time, until I got into spearfishing. We can't shoot game fish, but I prefer the taste of Crappie and Perch anyways. I think I've gone 'Regular' fishing a couple times since I've started Spearfishing. With Spearfishing, it doesn't matter if the fish are biting or not. We have to hunt them down, stalk them. The better the freediver you are- the more fish you will get.

  • Though carp may be invasive species they are here to stay you can't disagree with that. They deserve some respect too. They are large good fighting and smart fish.

    not saying that people should stop spearfishing and bow hunting them cause it is true that they do need a control on their population.

  • they dont deserve any respect at all if, as you've already admitted, that they're out of control. they're a disgusting, invasive fish that nobody wants around

  • @chicagoblast - I agree with you. I love Carp as a fish. I just don't like how they destroy the habitat for game fish. And they are growing in numbers.

  • Oh ok, I see it now ! Keep posting new videos !!

    BTW, you should start a carp killing business for private lakes who's fishing has been decimated by carps !!

  • I would - If anyone ever needed it- contact me!

  • MASSACRE THOSE CARP !!!!

    BTW, are you allowed to spear Muskie there? Cuz here in Canada, you're not allowed

  • @shimy1221 - WE are not allowed to shoot Muskie or any other GAME Fish.

  • But you clearly speared a Muskie in this video

  • @shimy1221 - No, with the angle of the camera it appears that way- I shot a CARP that was about a foot behind it. I don't think I would even want to shoot a Muskie- you see the teeth on those things?! Watch it a few more times- you'll see the carp right when I shoot.

  • @shimy1221

    STupid noob look again

  • that sucks that was a nice muskie too, i was like shoot the damn thing but now i know that you cant, very nice video

  • Awsome Vid! you put my underwater musky videos to shame! awsome!!

  • Alot of idiots on here posting and insulting others when they don't know what they are talking about.

    Carp are invasive!

    They are considered a rough fish and you can spear fish for them!

    They destroy underwater habitat, surface vegetation and enitre ecosystems that are crucial for other fish (game fish) and especially for waterfowl!

    Nothing immoral, illegal or destructive here...keep it up man!

  • Thank you!

  • Hunting super!

    I congratulate!

  • Hunting super!

    I congratulate!

  • your balls must of been frozen after that but mad video

  • Actually our hands and Feet freeze out- Our suits are very warm and so are our Balls! :)

  • Awesome!

  • You guys are hard core. I've never been in the winter here in Utah. Sweet video, keep up the good work!

  • carp destroys the lake? haha bullshit you are destroying the lake!!!!!!!!!!

  • how is it "I" am destroying the lake?

  • bro carp isnt native to the usa.. they were brought from the uk and they really do mess with the ecosystem

  • excellent video were are you guys doing this. i am from the fond du lac area i would like to watch you do this

  • This day we are at Lake Monona in Madison. There is a warm water discharge from a power plant that keeps a small area from freezing.

  • I sometimes do this in GREENLAKE too. We basically will go anywhere there is CLEAR water. We have to be able to see. My Favorite lake is LAKE MICHIGAN

  • Nice song!

  • That shit is unreal, I spear fish central california, wisconson looks like its got some nice fishin. Why did you guys shoot that pike/muskie. Happy slayin

  • It was a Muskie and I didn't shoot it- there was a CARP behind it and with the angle of the camera - it kinda looks like I took a shot at the muskie. it was at least a foot in front of the carp. We can't shoot game fish here.

  • one more thing what warm water is coming out that vent thing? Is it good or bad water LOL Thx Againg

    Richard

  • The warm water is the 'WARM WATER DISCHARGE' from a coal power plant about a block away. I'm not sure the cleanliness of it. It doesn't smell or anything- But I'm not going to drink it or anything- does feel nice when we start getting cold though.

  • oh cool but iIfish a lot for pike bass waleye, rainbow, salmon and suckers and carp but i dont see how the normal carp like the one u have in ur display pick. are bad.i mean the asian carp u guys might have or i not sure were they are but ..i dont think normal carp are bad if anything they feed off the alligie dead fish anything they can get a hold of thats dead lol. they helpclean the rivers up? Cool video but when u mean rough fish what do u mean i also wondered what is coming out of that vent

  • From an elevated area you can actually see where the carp are, just look for the murky water- they eat not just the dead plants but the roots of the live ones as well, Perfect example is this little river near my house that was awesome for FISHING, every year I started to notice more and more Carp- NOW, almost NO game fish and carp so thick you could walk across them- It's sad. That's what got me into shooting Carp- 1st with a bow now with a speargun.

  • Excellent picture, I congratulate.

  • what this music?

  • Band: TOOL

    Song: 46 & 2 (forty six and two)

  • thank you

  • it looks fun but is it leagal ? I just fish catch and release i just live in canada so is it

    Thx Richard

  • It is legal to shoot ROUGH FISH and PAN FISH throughout most of WI. no limit or restrictions on ROUGH FISH and 25 per day on Pan- although we only shoot what we are going to eat. Except for CARP- they are vile fish and just deserve to die. They destroy our lakes, rivers and streams.

  • you mean HELP your lakes, rivers, and streams. they clean up the bottoms like dead fish, and animal shit etc., yes they are vile but they do a big part in nature. everything has a purpose.

  • They are INVASIVE and eat the plants that Bait fish need to survive, no plants, no bait fish, no game fish. Not to mention they dirty the water.

  • i suppose your smarter than every ecologist ever to work with the DNR ah? Keep your ignorant comments to yourself man, doubtful anyone cares what your mind concocts to be true.

  • carp taste like shit, whats the point?

  • Ive seen some dumb fish in my life..these muskies are probably the dumest ;-)

  • @FerrariGTO288 - They are top of the food chain.......NO FEAR! :-)

  • if you dont mine me asking what lake is this that you are at in wisconsin?

  • Lake Monona, Madison WI.  not far from the capital.

  • so many fishes! like fishin in an aquarium lol

  • Yeah, When the water turns cold (32 degrees F) they congregate in the warm water discharge. It's fun too see them all.

  • How come you guys don't blast one of those Northern Pikes, that's got to give a good fight.Can you eat it? What do Carp taste like?

  • It's illegal for us to shoot them. They would put up a good fight- and They're Muskies. I think there were a couple Northern- but most are Muskies. You can eat the Norther- they are good. The Muskies on the other hand- I would not eat- high amounts of Mercury. The Carp taste like mud (to me). Some guys like the taste and they taste ok if you SMOKE them.

  • i know dotey LOL

  • impressive

  • I can't believe all those muskies and panfish were all dumbfounded and not afraid of eachother. I would love to swim next to all those nice muskies.

  • I'm sure the muskie takes a bite or two - but I think there main concern is staying warm- Right infront of that discharge can get up to 54 degrees- go over 15 feet and it drop to about 32. It is really cool. The REALLY Big Muskies can somtimes be territorial and will "bump" you or get about 8" from your face. close enough to make me back away. Every so often we'll even have Stergeon in there- Those are sweet!

  • NOT SUB ZERO!!! you can see the surface of the water and its not ice

  • the air temp is -10 degrees = hense: Sub Zero.

    We walked across the ice to get to the open water.

  • guess that makes sense

  • if its sub zero tempuratures how come it doesnt show him poping out of a whole in the ice

  • this spot is right infront of a "warm-Water" discharge from a power plant. right infront of the discharge the water temp can be 54 degrees. Also, it is illegal for us to spearfish through a hole in the ice larger than 12" has to be "open water"

  • What types of fish can you spearfish for in WI? Do you need any special licenses?

    Great video!

  • In WI you can spear Panfish & Roughfish. In most counties. No special permits or licence just a regular fishing license.

  • lol well at least u dont have to worry abt keeping the fish cold lol :P
