  • Being in lockdown had me reminiscing about days gone by and when I started spearfishing. I thought about what I wish someone told me when I first started. I threw this question out to a bunch of spearfishers around the world and also asked what their advice would be for a new diver. This is an absolute doozy, I learnt so much from just making this video and I'm sure you will too. What an amazing global spearfishing community we are all part of.

    As a 60 + year old spearfisher a have been diving for 50 years I would say slow down, not in the water but in life. A day on the water is a gift even if it's blowing or dirty take a minute and give thanks. And remember the ocean is not your supermarket be respectful and do not take more than you need.

    Lots of good advice. I am 66 and was a competition spear fisher 51 years ago. .My advice is 1) Go on days that are nice weather. Don't get desperate and get in a marginally dangerous sea. If it looks a bit dodgy don't go. At best it will be unpleasant. For me spearfishing should always be an experience of beauty, wonder and excitement. On rough days do apnoea training in the pool so you are ready when the sea is nice. 2) I wish free diving courses were available 50 years ago. I did a level 2 course in 2020. It taught me a lot about my personal physiology, why relaxing is so important, why hyperventilating is bad and how to rescue a blacked out buddy. I highly recommend a level 2 course for anyone starting out.

    Daniel, this is possibly the most helpful and insightful 19min I've ever watched. This is such a valuable piece of info and I thank you.
    I only recently discovered your channel, but I straightaway subscribed. You have a calm and humble way about you - no arrogance, just happy to be alive.
    And I applaud that. You give spearfishing a good name and you're an inspiration to spearos everywhere.
    Keep 'em coming.

  • @VanIsleOutdoors
    @VanIsleOutdoors 4 роки тому +5

    I've been spearfishing for more than 20 years and here is my tip for beginners: Invest in a good float/buoy. There are multiple benefits to having this piece of gear. it allows you to ditch your gun if a big fish runs into a hole or off into the deep, or you can rig your spear break-away style if you're expecting big fish. Beyond that, it provides a place to hang your bag or stringer which puts some distance between you and any sharks or other toothy critters, rather than having fish hanging off your belt. A pretty alarming run-in with a very angry moray trying to get a fish that was on my belt is actually what got me to buy my first float.... Probably most importantly, having a nice big float with a flag on it will make it much less likely for you to get smoked by a careless boater (they're out there and you know it). It can also be used as a low-tech training tool. If you know the length of your float line is 75ft, for example, you can clip off the line at 50ft to limit your dives to a depth you know you can handle safely, allowing you to incrementally progress your freediving and minimize risk. finally, if you and your dive buddy happen to drift apart for any reason, you'll have a much easier time tracking eachother down in the chop. If you're not using a dive float yet, you definitely should.
    Cheers from BC.
