ITM Fishing S17 - EP2: Underwater Fishing

While in the water filming marlin feeding, Matt has an idea on how he can ‘catch’ one while still in the water. He act’s immediately and adapts a spear gun with a piece of broomstick, it works and results in fish that are tagged and released underwater. As the idea evolves over several months, it’s used inshore, on all kinds of fish, including snapper and kingfish. Some fish are taken for dinner and others are tagged and released underwater, in a way that could revolutionise fish research.

An awesome New Zealand spear fishing video - how to tag fish using a spear gun without killing the fish and let them continue on their lives in the ocean. Matt a very very good fish tagging method - good thinking and design. Epic.

Matt, they don't make trophies and / or awards for the type of conservation & fishing that you and the NZ neighbors do. The proof is in the water that you swim for these "ultimate" free videos.
Thanks again.
Tight lines and happy fishing!!!
