They normally don't get this close :)

Dude! No bother! Great question. I've experimented over the years with all sorts of routines. What works for me these days is a light breakfast of protein and carbs and a lot of water. Too much food (or coffee) reduces my breath hold, for sure. But I've dived with guys that crush a monster beforehand and do just fine...so...I dunno! haha Try different things and see what works for you! Good luck out there!

@ awesome man thanks I’m only 16 getting into spears diving in Hawaii I’ve been diving for a bout a year now😊 but one thing I struggle with is my breath hold I can go 2:10mins on land at my best but when I’m in the water diving it seems to be like 40sec-1:00, do you have any tips or workouts that you do to improv breath holding😊🙏 thank you so much man

I highly recommend a freedive course - they're the best bit of education. I feel that the breathhold comes with experience and calmness - both physical and mental. When you're out there, work on 'active relaxation' - while breathing as calm and normal as possible, focus on every single muscle, one at a time, from your hands and feet, in to your core. 'Turn them off' one at a time. Hopefully you find that helps you calm down and gain some time underwater. Stay safe out there!

South Shore - secret location :D

I've never tasted any over 100, but 40 and 50 pounders are wonderful! Some of our current favorite ocean meat! It's a firm meat able to take on any flavor profile. We've done it all sorts of ways; from the air fryer to grill, teriyaki to smoke salt - definitely recommend!!

Aw! Awesome. Glad you found it!

That’s a @kapspearguns KAP120 with a 7mm shaft.

It sure is a wonderful thing to experience!

Hey man - thanks for the note. Once the weather calms down maybe we can take you out.

@@tdubspearfishing mahalo brother, congrats on that new Ulua record in your new video you just dropped as well.

It was unbelievable! Such an epic sight!!

Ha! Me too! I'm glad I landed where I did!! Coulda been a bad day!

Thanks!!

Friggin love that gun, man!!

Not windward. Way too windy over there! haha

So unreal! I hope we all get to witness something like that again!

haha - yeah, still can't believe that one! Thanks for the comment and well wishes! I'll try some more 3-prongin.

What is up with these conditions lately?? Hopefully things start to settle and we can all get some good diving.

@@tdubspearfishing winter conditions in summer lol, this is crazy! I'm waiting for that window to take a kayak out for the first time to get to deeper waters, your videos are inspiring me!

Good point about the wind/moon! haha - that damn papio - at least he's off getting bigger for next time!! :)

Awesome thanks! Hope to get out there someday to spearfish!

No - this was on an island in East Asia.

Haha...yeah, that was some luck! The knifejaw was amazing! I'd say very similar to mu in texture and flavor. Nice and flaky, yet firm. Definitely recommend!

Awesome, good to know!

No, we didn't shoot it. Too rare/cool for us to want to. I have heard they're delicious though!

Respect

Congrats! Such a great fish!

Cool! Thanks for watching! How's the spearfishing there?

I haven't considered a Catch-n-Cook - but now I will. After all, it's why we do it! Thanks for the comment!

Thanks for letting me know the 4k looked good! My poor old iMac struggles putting that stuff together. :)

Pualu is the surgeonfish. The whitemargin unicornfish is different from the regular kala and opelu kala.

@@tdubspearfishing I see. I didn't notice that on first watch; thought you were talking about the pualu. The book *Hawaiian Reef Fishes* by Hoover (recommended). I think what you saw isn't the whitemargin unicornfish, which has no Hawaiian name according to that book, but the paletail unicorn fish, which is called kala lolo, as you said.

@@quinnculver4336 Cool man! Thanks for the book recommendation. I'll check it out.

Thanks, Homer!

The classic "Student Manual" (dlnr.hawaii.gov/dar/files/2014/04/fishes_of_hawaii.pdf) lists that as the 'sleek unicornfish'. I can't seem to find where I thought I found the local term.

Yup, I'll probably stick with 'kala' for now - or, "dang good eating!"

Hell yeah, man! I'm loving it! Thanks for the comment.
