Yep. I could only imagine what kind of fight could be put on by a good sized GT on hook and line. I've seen some of these fish have a big fight with a spear in them. Pretty entertaining.

No point in shooting the GT.

Poor eating qualities and should be left for the fishing rod.

[jdskinner]

@ParallelSolutions We cooked it up on the grill and it was very good tasting. Damn near any fish, if cooked right, can be good. Also, you fish with a rod for the fight of a good fish, we spear big fish also for the fun of the fight. It's just a different method.

WTF, at 4:15 you almost shot your friend! I'd never go diving with that motherfucker!

[jdskinner]

He was out of my range. If you don't think I know what my range is, you probably don't know the first thing about spearfishing.

[ifishanyweather]

what gun

[jdskinner]

I used a Rob Allen 120cm custom camo carbon railgun in this video.

jdskinner.....You're right, I don't know anything about spearfishing, but I do know about safety. If I'm shooting a gun and someone was in the line of fire even if out of range you shouldn't take the shot. It's not worth killing your friend over a fish even if he's out of range. That's how stupid avoidable accidents happen, but you know what your doing and I don't. Nice video other than my comment.

i really want to spear fish, but wouldn't sharks come because the blood in the water would attract them? sound kinda dangerous to me. and holy crao you can hold your breath for a long time. what do you think of pneumatic spear guns?

@dekachin007 - only if the underwater police catch you.....lol, j/k You will hear many mixed answers to that question, most say it's illegal to use a speargun...but it's ok to have with you to defend your self. stores that sell guns say it's ok to use as long as you don't sell the fish you catch. Better to ask forgiveness then permission, as long you you don't spear in populated areas like sunabe, zampa, maeda, any beach....ect. you are fine. Never seen a cop at my dive spots in over 5 years.

[MrJDMDingo]

Two things, first, if I was spearfishing with you shot in my direction I would probably beat the living shit out of you. You need to learn some safety! Second where is this in Oki? Is that a bridge in the begining?

[dekachin007]

Isn't it illegal to use spearguns in Japan? I thought you are only allowed to use pole spears. But cool video!
