You guys are professionals so I'm not trying to claim I'm a "guru" of spearfishing, but I noticed you dove straight down on that grouper...that's a definite incentive for him to bolt in my experience.
I get a lot more success if I dive down 10-15ft and approach from the bottom:
1) Makes your behaviour less predatory 2) U Get a better angle to shoot from 3) If you approach slowly and indirect - curious reefies like grouper, mutton and cubera will swim towards U!! What r your thoughts?
i agree with you. the times i come down vertical is when grouper is holed up and pokes his head out occasionally, so then i come from above and shoot the head if possible. when swimming free, i try to keep them calm, not giving chase where they scurry everywhree and get nervous and slowly approach/wait for them.
Nice video and good job guys ! A little tip for the diver. Try to get a bigger fins, specialy designed for freediving. You´ll go deeper, safer and will enjoy ever more this great sport ! Cheers...
congrats great vid and hunt! that's what grouper hunting is about - hard work! intelligent fish they are. somehow they always seem to know when you want to take the shot and rush away in the last moment. I like that shot at 2:00 thought you had'em.
u need to relax more man, slow down ur decent and u would of had him the first time :D
