Excellent video, and great music too! I love the Carolina Chocolate Drops.
Must get myself a polespear. I spearfish in the UK and at the moment I use a 90cm Comanche during the day and a 75cm gun at night. However, I reckon that a polespear would be much more fun, especially at night, so I'm gonna have a go...

this is one awesome footage! I'm stationed at Japan and spearfishing pretty much stops during the winter time. About how much weight are you using (20lbs?) Also, does water temperature change that much during summer time? Thanks and happy spearfishing!
