On the way down - no. On the way up? Well... there was the dentex on the line :)

When there's no fish I go up after the first contraction or so. If there's fish I go through some, never pushing too far. That's why I'm still here :) Stay safe!

Thanks. Well, could be various reasons to feel this. Some might be not taking a full breath, because it's too shallow to feel the elephant stepping on your chest. I don't go below my RV. I'm comfortable at those depths. If you never did a freediving course - highly recommended!

Thank you my dear friend! Can't wait to check out the monsters that crawled up during this winter :)

A dive to remember! Thank You for great footage my friend.

Thanks 👍

Just a simple DIY, anything elastic that can hold it around your forearm will do.

Thank you!

Yes definitely. I think fish associate it with cracking shells. Not all fish will come for it tho. Most will. But for example Dusky no, you must go and get it.

@@SPEARFISHERZ Yes I understand , I appreciate your reply Thanks man

Thank you! Cheers!

Yes CWT. Still didn't design a good VWT system, would be much safer... I would say.

Thank you so much

Hahaha. Just a good mix of applying proper freediving knowledge, handful of relaxation and ****loads of deep spearfishing hours.

Thanks. Always a lack of light down there... But sometimes gives surreal effects.

Thank you.

Thanks so much my dear friend. See you soon in the water!

Thank you very much.

Glad you enjoyed it! Many thanks.

Absolutely. Looking forward for the repeat some time in the future...

Yes. Bad timing. But also with traditional setups I can confirm what some other deep spearos noticed as well: bands lose power at depth for some reason and give less performance on "Tarzan's children". Looking forward to a good invert.

That's about it. Are you not entertained?

Thanks buddy

Good question. Well, I feel quite comfortable deep spearfishing in CWT in summer (with ~3kg weights), but yes when the water gets colder it's safer to go with VWT. In fact we are designing a VWT system that can work well for my small rib. If anyone has a good suggestion or example, most welcome to share. Until now I tried VWT a couple of times - the oldschool way (boatman throws the weights attached to rope on my signal). And it's great for safety, for prolonged bottom time, for going a bit deeper. But it also has a few disadvantages - for me personally dropping down too fast irritates my equalization after a couple of dives, would be better to have more control on the speed of descent somehow. And also if the weights hit the bottom or just hang in there they scare the fish. Fish in Malta are super scarce and super wary. And also there is something about that landing phase when I'm choosing a good spot, looking for and interacting with the fish. That's special, and makes a big difference, at least for me. I love that part of the dive.

@@SPEARFISHERZ thank you so much for the extended explanation in the reply, as for the fish i think most Mediterranean fish are easy to scar, in this case i think dropping with weight would be more helpful when targeting fish in caves and under rocks.

@@mohamedelmoussaoui5531 yes it's very useful to retrieve fish from under rocks, like for example for a second shot. But regular hunting fish in holes at great depths that's the most dangerous, because every now and then things can go wrong. Therefore I would avoid altogether shooting fish in holes. I did it, I still do it, but lately I try to get closer to the fish and shoot it when it's out in the open, and if it runs in the hole I often let it be, unless it's an easy one.

I am not interested in freediving competition. Spearfishing I went max ~50m CWT, I could probably go more but frenzeling fails around that depth, and I'm lazy to train efficient mouthfill. Max static last time I tried was some years ago, I think was ~5:30. So nothing impressive. On top of that I don't have much spare time and my only training is spearfishing, but I highly recommend to deep spearfishermen to do some fitness training as well. Only once a week will make a big difference, otherwise you have to be super slowmo like me, and have quite long surface intervals. Freediving competition as a sport is quite different from spearfishing. You follow the line, you don't equalize the mask, main focus is on the advanced equalization techniques, you don't have the gun or fish on the line, you just turn make a turn and go up. It truly is an amazing sport, and I admire the achievements of the top freediving athletes. It requires high level of regular fitness training, strict diets and mental preparations. It's not my thing. Spearfishing and deep spearfishing in particular is much more then just a sport. It's the hunt, it's the communication with the animals, the environment, the guts, the unknown...

Obrigado. My insta is /thespearfisherz

Thanks 8-Inch-Shaka 8-Inch-Shaka. I use both depth alarms and time alarms. Problem is that they are not loud enough and sometimes I don't hear them. Then again if they were much louder not sure if it might disturb the fish?

Thank you. Speaking of right weapons, did they fix that problem of losing power at greater depth due to the compression of air in compressed air guns? ;)

@@SPEARFISHERZ my comment was not necessarily in favor of air rifles. However, the decrease in power that occurs at depth in air rifles is not significant, I fish over 40 meters and I never had the feeling that the rifle had a performance that was not up to par. And the depth affects more in the elastic rifles that over certain depth lose power significantly. My comment referred to the fact that with all the propulsion systems available, going fishing at certain depths confronting big fish with your speargun is definitely not recommended. I repeat it is not a comment in favor of air rifles, but even rollers or demos would be just fine, rifles that can allow you to use at least 7.5 rods

Thanks. I try my best

Glad to see such enthusiasm and passion for spearfishing. I'm sure you'll have great results with your new gun from SalpaSub, because they now have some really great high quality top brands of various pieces of gear, not to mention their laser sharp inverts.

@@SPEARFISHERZ at the moment i used a OMER Hf90 wich was also fine...aslong i am in the reef...but i actualy liked the remote blue water far out also a lot....i amdefinetly looking to get a roller some day...but not sure..so many nice spearguns out there...it has alos suit my style, not only should look good .
