"I bet that was one hell of an adrenaline rush!" But not for the marlin...one minute the marlin is just swimming along minding his own business, the next he's got spears being shot into him so some guy can post a heroic video of himself on UA-cam killing a defenseless fish...Sad.
Rayaan Farhath my Uncle caught a 864lb blue Marin and it took 8 hours he had to stay on the reel the whole time for the fish to count in the tournament
Tim your one lucky man, not only too live in such a beautiful country but also too catch that monster of a fish, I wish I had the money to fly out too your part of the World as I live in a rainy cold part of the North in the UK, but to share such a fish with Friends and Neighbours was a very kind gesture and I applaud you and your Mates. Plus great Vid Tim and once again people like you are needed in this cruel bitter World. Keep up the excellent work and g,day from a little village called Alsager in the UK about 80 miles from the Sea.
Amazing accomplishment Tim. It is incredible that without a float, the beastie didn’t come unbuttoned or that the line didn’t break, towing you as he did. Congratulations.
So the marlin was just passing by, minding his own business, when he saw the bunch of thugs harassing this gentleman for no reason. He deiced to intervene and scare them sharks away. For that he got killed and eaten. So much for being a good Samaritan in this society....
@@OKOK-hm2is you will often find that marlin and sharks congregate in the same patch of water for the same food source. The marlin wasn’t fending off the sharks, nor were the sharks getting in the way of the marlin. As a sportfishing skipper, I see this all the time. Maybe educate yourself a bit more first before commenting stupid shit in future.
@@OKOK-hm2is and they should lmfao, after all... humans don't belong in the ocean naturally, the ocean is the sharks home, so if you get eaten by a shark or bit by a shark dont bitch about it, YOU ARE IN THEIR HOOD. remember that. (most people who get bit by sharks often have no anger towards the shark at all because they understand that is a risk that you take when you go into an area of ocean that has sharks living in an abundance)
Once in a lifetime.. people have zero appreciation how absolutely insanely difficult this is. I've been blue water spearing for years and u may never ever see a fish like this. Fun part is hunting.. cleaning that damn thing and finding people to eat it is the hard part.
As I say they are incredibly rare and not much is known, wish they were protected tho because chances are they probably have a low population and are probably highly endangered. Hope one day they become slightly more abundant as this would be an awesome fish to fight (on reel for me I don’t like spear fishing I know it’s hard but it gives the diver an unfair advantage and I personally don’t like targeted fishing) the record is I think over 1600lbs this was actually a small Black Marlin
Omar Hernandez it’s fantastic, just a lot of meat. I don’t shoot big fish for that purpose.. the little ones taste so much better. Hard to come back from vacation with 200lbs of meat.
Tyler Melendez-Duke if you free dive in a 1000ft of water miles from shore...u are a little out of your human element. Advantage? Heck he was outweighed and the fish had a bigger spear.. not only is long line or drag net fishing have horrible loads of by catch, I see every fish I eat first.. if u have never been in the water, tough to have a solid opinion. Like I said earlier.. the hunt or just being in the water is the enjoyable part. No true spear man goes just for the kill.. if u try to hard you will never see a fish.
I could swim with sharks no problem, but I don't think I could ever bring myself to charge a large spearfish like that head on. Absolutely immense discipline, watching it happen in real time is actually nuts because of how quickly you had to process what you saw and make the decision to go right for it. Absolute nerves of steel
when you shot that fish and it turn the light blue it turned from the most amazing thing I've ever seen two really feeling like that was some spiritual stuff. I've never had so much amazement rush over me followed by so much sadness
Hail-Recoil Not completely sure, most likely the cutoff of blood flow causes a chemical reaction that makes it so that. Most dolphins, mahi mahi, and marlin do that when they are killed.
@J J nope, those sudden changes on colors it all neurological activity! Same with urination or defecation (most common on animals) after death, in the event of brain damage.
Seeing humans take part in the hunt acting purely on instinct sharing the space with such amazing creatures as god intended really makes me happy to see, i bet that marlin was delicious hope you guys got to enjoy it sashimi style, good on you for keeping your composure in there ... you've showed true grit and came out on top, fortune favors the brave and what a wild ride that must have been.
The sad part is that this is an endangered species, I’ve Ben going fishing for 10 years and have never seen one of them and even if I did I would release it but I guess people have different opinions
I’m not sure if you’ll ever see this coment Tim but I’ve watched your vid 100000 times & dreamt of shooting my own marlin, I recently joined the club mate & im over the moon, very inspired by your vid, congrats😁😎
I respect the fact that you were physically able to accomplish this amazing achievement. Though, I find it unfortunate that you destroyed such a beautiful creature in its natural habitat. With this sort of admiration placed on social media, it doesnt help our natural environment - which needs a lot of help at the moment. In a way, it does produce awareness however at great cost, no matter how big or small.
@@benbutcher9672 you are right. Trawling is severely worse. No doubt about it. It is up there with one of mans top naturally deatroying contributors. This man's hunt is not only for food. It is for sport - which is extremely remarkable. Though totally unnecessary. Nature needs all the help it needs. Its just that simple.
@@prestongonzalez3836 your question is definately justified, no doubt about it. Comparatively, one guy fishing vs commerical fishing is clearly the lesser of two evils. In an ideal world we should all have the privilege to do one on one combat, and embrace its rewards, experiences and glorly - Like we used to so many years ago. A satisfying fantasy to have our natural world secured, and the possibilty of, lets say our grandkids or future generations to do the same is a common interest. Its an achievement and privilege of absolute - beyond most peoples comprehesion which i totally understand. It is just sad to see our worlds incredible species, terrestial and aquatic, slowly deminishing. And the chances utterly reduced for future generations, like the one represented in the video, becoming an unlikely future for future genetations is more than concerning. Our natural world needs help, every ounce of it. Other wise. Theres will be nothing left in decades to come. Think about it.
@@tim5111 That's true but if you have the ability to make these good of claims you should go after commercial fishing which would do a greater impact against over fishing then to one person on UA-cam that Got a once in a life time opportunity to catch a marlin by speargun
I guess if you get in the water with it face to face and fight sharks you deserve to take 1 Marlin once in a while.. I don't think taking one like that is going to hurt the population very much, I have a buddy who says they eat them in Mexico all the time and he has tried it and said it was great!
@@littleboyproductions471 yeah me too, I don't get to travel very often but I own a boat and I can fish many days, so I'm the luckiest man in world I think!! Hoping to go really small hook and line permit so I can fish and sell it next year. ( I mean really small, 17' boat.) We catch lots of salmon, halibut, rockfish, black cod, albacore tuna ECT. Someone caught a striped Marlin a few years back, and last year a few bluefin we're caught up to 110lbs but it's 63degree tuna water here at the warmer end.
I understand it must be breathtaking to hunt a black marlin. But why hunt threatened species of fish? Leave the threatened species alone. I Hunt myself and i would never ever kill an animal that is threatened :) They will probably go extinct if people keep hunting them
I respect the sport but a shame such a large and beautiful fish had to die. It probably had been alive for years and produced many successful offspring.
How good is it being alive now. Back in the day, that would have been a tall story you heard from some bloke in the pub. Today it's like we're swimming beside you. Great visual storytelling.
Good job! When I hunt or fish I also share with the Church as well as friends and family. Sometimes I have opportunities to feed the homeless. God bless you. Love from California.
Holy cow this is super duper awesomeness! I'm glad there are people out in the world living, filming, and sharing this adventure with us all! Just wild, the ocean, sharks, Marlin, being dragged 😳 and hearing the excitement in the guys voice.
From a female fishing girl of the Redlands who like to keep these beauties in the water and out of hands of egotistical people, please please don't take another one, they are so precious and I've fished all areas around brisbane and the thing I see is fish are starting to get low in numbers especially seeing marlin that size in the area. I'm glad that you didn't waste it but as someone who wants to see these fish kept in the water, please don't go back
Although families were fed and memories were made, it just kills me to see a precious billfish get mauled. The Nantucket sleigh ride looked fun though :P
I like how he just like I brushed off those sharks like it was nothing in his Australian voice lol. When in reality any normal person would of been freaking out lol no joke.
Great video , next time we would like to see you briefly process the fish as well , and then seeing you eating it at the barbecue would be gratifying too !!! but that was truly awesome to see Spearfish a marlin while you were being towed in the water by it !!! Awsome !!!
Now this is true spearfishing legends on tape. Not only did this guy jump into a shark territory, he did so alone. Those asshole sharks came to eat him and he stood his ground long enough to see this beautiful Marlin come to view the action. He remembers to charge at the marlin because they don't like that and it will turn to stand it's ground against him. Insane footage and great music. One of the best videos ive ever seen
This reminds me when I was hunting mahi and a decent sized tiger shark came up on me. I poked him away and then a huge mahi crossed me and I shot it. The tiger came back and I poked him with a spear less gun and he knew it, it bit my fin and pulled it off. Scariest day of spearfishing for me
Did you subscribe?
The fact that you even spotted the marlin when 3 sharks were around you is amazing, seeing it at normal speed is just unbelievable!
One of the most Australian videos I've ever seen
*Aussie

What’s scary is looking down just to see an almost endless void.
Thallassophobia mate thallassophobia
It's better than looking down to see countless sharks
An endless void of sharks
And what can come out of those depths....
Even better is night diving. Jump in with your light off and sink in darkness til your back hits the bottom.

Great video , next time we would like to see you briefly process the fish as well , and then seeing you eating it at the barbecue would be gratifying too !!! but that was truly awesome to see Spearfish a marlin while you were being towed in the water by it !!! Awsome !!!
whats this cool song in the background

That was so cool how it changed color as you shot the 3rd spear.
you got some big balls dude. wow.
You'll be in heaven in the after life still talking about that one!
Now this is true spearfishing legends on tape. Not only did this guy jump into a shark territory, he did so alone. Those asshole sharks came to eat him and he stood his ground long enough to see this beautiful Marlin come to view the action. He remembers to charge at the marlin because they don't like that and it will turn to stand it's ground against him. Insane footage and great music. One of the best videos ive ever seen
You know the song playing?
One of the most badass videos I’ve ever seen. Awesome video mate!
To protect them, they should make the spearing of them the only way to take them.
What about jumping on it with a knife? Riding it and stabbing it. Gotta be possible. You’d ban that? How dare you
I would ban it all for the next 40 years
Wow that's and epic story of sharing your catch.. such a blessing...
at 7:10 were those bugs crawling in and out of its eyes?
Sea lice they're on a bunch of big pelagics
Why the hell did you have to kill it! What a hero!
This reminds me when I was hunting mahi and a decent sized tiger shark came up on me. I poked him away and then a huge mahi crossed me and I shot it. The tiger came back and I poked him with a spear less gun and he knew it, it bit my fin and pulled it off. Scariest day of spearfishing for me
Thankfully I was only 10-20 yards from the boat
I’ll take 200 for shit that didn’t happen, Mr Trebek
