if i dont shoot a fish once a week i beat my wife. there arn't many seals around my ways so I club Possums to death instead :)

The Guy is obviously freediving as you can see him going up and down. He is a selective hunter as you can also see. To all you boneheads saying otherwise, your idiots. I would rahter have a world full of spearfisherman than netters or Rod and Reel hunters. It is selective, no bycatch, and you take only what you need.

I'm inspired Pete, I swapped the rod for the gun 2 years ago and really do appreciate the skill required let alone training you must go through to hold you breath so long and to nail it with a stone shot, can't wait for my first Boarfish.

Cheers

You have more control with spearfishing, in the sense that there is less guesswork and you can actively pick your fish (rather than passively selecting from what you caught). Also you often have more mobility. Its far more demanding than rod and reel - in every conceivable way - but thats something we spearfishers like.

Fortunately the shark thing is only a problem in some parts of the world and not in mine :)

@eebstein True, but when you fish rod and reel you put back what you dont eat

and its less dangerous for sharks

man so many haters.every thing grows and dies even the plants we eat.great vid, great patience,great viz

[Corsten79]

@eebstein today catch and release increases by reel hunters

Why so many haters, he obviously ate the fish which eliminates any problems you should have, he could have just shot every single little fish he saw, but he was patient and selective which shows respect... if you're a tree hugging vegetarian or think this is "inhumane" then why did you open the video? You obviously knew a fish would be shot from the title.
