[phirren]

[MrHolyshit3]

[Hammarlux]

Great Vid, bad music. Would have been a lot better with some great ambient sound... this music is making me feel like i'm at some stupid nightclub...

[badassme1000]

[StrengthFromAbove83]

Does it really matter if you use scuba fins or free dive fins? 

[DerFranke101]

i hope that freak eats all the fish he`s catched.

[eclipseballer33]

what kind of fins do you use because im looking to get into free diving and i need a good inexpensive kind to use

[mrghillie100]

[jaysmith1997]

mad video bring out sum more aie ?

[yermama79]

Im fortunate enough to have grown up going to Staniel Cay. My family has a home there. Ive been going for about 21 years now. It is heaven. Spearfishing was what I grew up doing. Never used a tank or gun in my life. Just good ole lungs and a sling spear. You gotta ram the spear through those big groupers. It's often not just as easy as getting off a good shot. Hogfish, lobsters, groupers, etc. Ive seen some big game fish, and taken some. Just leave enough so others can enjoy. The eastern side o

[greenchief117]

Why didnt you shoot the black groupers .

[tykauai]

[faise2u]

what kind of spear u r using??? where can i get it?

[leo4710]

@faise2u It's a Hawaiian Spear, best place to get depending on where you live is eBay

[leo4710]

@faise2u It's a Hawiian Sling Spear, eBay is a good bet

[jramsarran]

how come you don't shoot groupers?

[thecoveboys]

Great footage. Looks like there's a lot of good spearing that way. How deep were you diving?

[caseadilla44]

what kind of spear is that?

[leo4710]

@caseadilla44 It's a Hawiian Sling Spear

[tykauai]

[leo4710]

@tykauai It's a Hawiian Sling Spear

[skim4lf]

[floridafishermen]

[sweetgetbig561]

[scruffyrunkin]

[nichoiles]

sik footage!!!

[gmrurka]

What camera did you use to video this... great clarity, nice shots!

[thkimmel]

What type of spear gun are you using?

[19Diver90]

sweet .. that black at 2:55 is askin for it haha

[boogeyman1603]

Spearfishing is only for noobs!!!

[Stebraul]

@boogeyman1603 You have got to be kidding me.. tell me would you jump into the water with 5ft+ sharks, moray eels, more than a hanful of very poisonous fish/snakes? I've been spearfishing twice, both in the bahamas and let me tell you something, it is not easy, it's not 10ft of water your diving in...try 20-40 ft, do you know how much pressure there is at that depth? you also run the risk of getting stuck under a ledge or on the coral when you're diving underneath to shoot/grab your fish.

[cwiller]

you make it sound very dramatic. spearfishing is shallow,warm, clear water is about as easy as it gets. still a blast. sea snakes? used to catch them by hand as a kid for laughs. you've been twice. get out more, then develop an opinion ;)

[RobertArrington]

@cwiller I think your comment about get out more then develop an opinion is very correct, although I think you may need to heed your own advise. You may dive in shallow, clear, warm water.... but for those of us who are truly experienced free divers we will go anywhere and dive in anything.... as in DEEP, COLD and Low Viz. So, get out there and develop a real opinion.

[cwiller]

@RobertArrington I have been freediving over 15yrs and split most of my time between the redsea and northern British Columbia, although I've been freediving/spearfishing in 12 other countries. I think you're somewhat confused by where my original comment was directed.

[fusilier45]

Wasnt aware they had sea snakes in Bahamas

[avau77]

massive vid guys!!

[dblacky1977]

Good effort not being a total douche and spearing everything that moves. Nothing angers me more than assholes who spear shit for the sake of it. Gives us all a bad name.

[unirdna]

Agree with dblacky1977. A lot of big groupers and female hogs left alone to make more. Well done guys.

[DaddyWarbucks452]

Nassau, goliath, and warsaw grouper should be left alone. Blacks and gag groupers are fair game as long as you kill to eat. If I was spearing out there I'd do it for food. Spearfishing shouldn't be an everyday thing but it's okay to do it every once in a while.

[ultimatefighterispro]

id spear the shark lol

[Thetrainscommin54]

damn bro most impressive. how deep were u freediving? you got some real good down time. i just went tot he bahamas 3 days ago and this time of year the hogs were huge....very impressive tho.

[SNIPERJOAKIM]

awsome what is the name on the song

[tennisfan1100]

Hawaiian sling

[unirdna]

You guys sure know a few honey holes over there, don't you? Very cool of you to leave those big grouper alone, and just take a few hogs and bugs. 5 stars!!!

[RobertArrington]

Hey I appreciate all the great compliments. My Name is Robert Arrington and was the one spearfishing in the video... I edited it as well.... unfortunately I had a full audio track to go with it including voice over but youtube pulled it and posted this track which goes pretty well also.... again, thank you all for the great compliments!

[sinnimneb]

you dont even need to dive more then 15 metres.......... most fish are speared in less then that

[viper14b]

how many feet is that becuase ive talked to guys who have speared fish in like 3 feet

[NickAsian]

I have only just got into freediving and spearfishing. I usually use the hooker. But i love freediving its a challenge and its the best! Even though i can only dive to 15 meters its still awesome

[Highgradeeverday]

Hawiian slinging is how the bad boys do it..

Spearguns are wack

[lagunabeachlife]

I disagree with you regarding spearguns.

I use both since each has its purpose. slings/ polespears have a fish size limit before they fail, not to mention range.

[Highgradeeverday]

i agree .. you won't be able to catch a tuna with it but.. You can catch other larger fish such as grouper and snapper with it once you hit them in the head

[TheJonMillerShow]

hell yeh.

[flatsfisher9393]

@Highgradeeverday i agree if you are spearing bottom duellers but i just got into open water diving it is the shit but you have to have a gun for that

[nabusmc]

awswome vid

[giio2083]

hi nice video man do you know what remix is this from this song?

[RAISnHELLL]

Awesome vid, how deep were you guys?

[Cordinak]

ok i found it groove cutter - my shooter, but i still cant find this remix!!!!

[Cordinak]

can i have the name of the song please?

[SereneApnea]

Hawaiian slings are so much fun.

Great vid.

[2dlamb]

are there any ok spots not too far from nassau? thanks

[FishinTV]

absolutely but for the bahamas, most of the good spots are places people dont regularly go to. find the depth you are confortable in, check a chart for some structure or rock, and go scout it out. bring home the bacon but make sure to let us know how it went.

[skingingsteel101]

i have to to spear bahamian waters

[cypriotkikos]

my god!! can you sow me your gun?? 1st time i saw something like that!!

[Highgradeeverday]

lol. That an Hawiian sling. They are sick!!!

Spearguns are illegal in the bahamas

[alencar2007]

Nice video and nice hogs, congrats.........

[pokersuperstar]

nice dive.. i wish i could hold my breath as long as you...

[KeiWarrior01]

awsome!

[dstick1]

Very nice video lads, well done. Nice to see the pole spearing being given a run - classic fish caught too! LOL my 4yo wanted to know why you were diving in your PJ's - time 4 new boardies.....

[Highgradeeverday]

cressi fins?

[FishinTV]

Riffe but very similar

[freytes20004]

Robert you are the man keep the good work up.5/5

[lutrapure]

Ah alright. I figured it may have been protected. Nice grouper too. I need to try and get into the Pole Spear, I strictly use Hawaiian Slings as of now.

[FishinTV]

We started a new page for Reel Adventures TV. Check it out because we will be posting more vids there.

[lutrapure]

Staniel Cay is wickid. I spearfish a lot myself, what's the biggest fish you guys have pulled up?

[FishinTV]

+500 pound marlin but there is a self defense story that goes along with it. trust me, we didn't go out to target a marlin lol!!!

it's on robert arringtons spearfishing the world dvd which has about an hour of free diving in the bahamas, fiji, austrailia, costa rica, and panama

[lutrapure]

Lol, sorry. Meant to say with a Hawaiian Sling or Pole Spear. I haven't gotten around to using a Speargun yet. Sweet video though. My question is, there were a few decent grouper in your footage, why didn't you spear them?

[muckdiver]

great vid tnx for sharing and btw it`s a hawaiian sling not a polespear. safe diving :)

[FishinTV]

glad you lied it and thanks for the Hawaiian clarification!

[muckdiver]

tnx bro. keep posting great vids be safe :)

[SereneApnea]

great job with the pole spear, sadly the reef fish are almost all gone.

[FishinTV]

Not at Staniel Cay Yacht Club in Exuma Bahamas! Watch next weeks episode of Reel Adventures that is completely focused on freediving, scuba, and spearfishing!

[spearfishing2qatar]
