    Fascinating listening to the Q&A but also to see Giacomo's setup. I noticed many weights on his belt but no weight vest. Would this just be a personal preference or a better option if diving deep? He seemed to glide towards to bottom from only a few meters down. Great video as always....

  • @yanassi
    @yanassi 7 місяців тому

    Really interesting. Thanks for this. I was surprised to see a simple 90cm pathos speargun, when so much more technically advanced equipment are available to giacomo. Knowledge and experience are key, but that applies regardless of the speargun used. I wondered why Giacomo preferred a simple small gun? Maneuverability? Shooting rocky crevices and tight holes? Simplicity of less parts?

    • @DanielMann

    • @DanielMann

      Hey Maro, I’ve been to Croatia in 2017 or 2018 I think. No spearfishing but a beautiful place for sure. Possibly going through this summer, see how it pans out.

  • @user-bs8xl1vs9t
    @user-bs8xl1vs9t Рік тому +2

    hello daniel,
    i also am a very enthusiastic spearfisher since decades. i have seen the fish on the mediterranean coasts become less and less.
    there is a reason why in some countries of the mediterranean sea it's forbidden to shoot grouper. i know, i don't need to tell you: groupers have a territory. if you shoot them, there are no groupers anymore. you can not extinct wrasses and so on. but you can extinct groupers in a whole area. i also know italian guys, who say: look at them, how they approach us (just not in spearfishing areas), they are curious, very communicative. please leave them alone. so i ask you: couldn't you consider thinking about not shooting groupers in the med anymore? couldn't you consider to make a clip about this and to raise the awareness of your followers in this special topic. we both know, spearfishing is so much more than just freediving and watching fish. by hunting you get a much bigger understanding of the environment and an intense bond. and if you just eat the fish you catch and no fish of the industry, you are even doing something good. that's why i think, you will understand. let's shoot dentex and wrasses and jacks and so (as long as they are big enough). but let's just play and communicate with the groupers and leave them alone. i have seen so many fisherman who are so afraid of the embarrasment of getting out of the water without fish, so that they shoot virtually everything containing minute groupers. let's go for the big ones or nothing ;-) with kind regards, franz

    I can't help but think the Med is Dead and way over fished. There are no sharks there because there isn't anything for them to eat [because it is over fished]. It has got to be time to stop fishing completely in the Med.
