  • Dan Silveira - avid diver, spearfisherman, kayaker, and sponsored athlete for Omer, Sporasub, Divers Dlite, and Liquid Image has created this spearfishing video called "Blue water Spearfishing in Baja" to show how fun it can be to spearfish in one of the most remote areas of Mexico. You will enjoy epic footage of Silveira and Al Schneppershoff shooting some large pelagic fish, including yellowtail, halibut, and grouper.
    Spearfishing brings full perspective to the food I eat. This is part of life in the wild. Spearfishing is not for the faint hearted. The death is about as close to the plate as it can get. No one is forcing you to watch my videos, so if you don't like it, don't watch it, and keep your remarks to yourself. Thanks

    As an avid spear-fisherman this is one of the best spearfishing videos on UA-cam.
    It has a bit of everything. The vast colors and abundant marine life is what Baja is all about, untouched. To me this is "real" spearfishing.

    Thanks, I really enjoy spearfishing because it is both a challenge and a meditation. I use the fish for personal consumption and I love to cook for my family and friends. Fresh fish is like nothing else. Top quality! I am grateful.

    Love the videos brings back memories of spear fishing in the old days with low tech equipment we made our selves. before reals we ran flourencent floaring nylon ropes several hundred feet long for large fish with floats attached and a fish ring hanging down from the floats(japanese net floats and life guard floats).

    I scuba but have been practicing my free dive skills and have been following Kimmy Werner. Love this brother! I also eat what I catch and share with those that can't make ends meet. Pretty rewarding to see people smile. That is thanks enough! I love this vid. Thanks for the Stretching tip Dan! You and Al, good on ya both!

    I used to do low level diving 15 years ago when smoking- spearfishing and just couldn't stay down so long , I was about 43 then . Gave up smoking 5 years ago , but haven't tried to dive in this time. Wander how long I could last now, probably a lot longer. Your video has lit a spark of interest again, fantastic , just beautifull down there as well .

    I love spearfishing, there is a big element of fun to me, but my primary reason for spearfishing is to harvest the fish for food. There is nothing more satisfying than knowing where your food came from, what it ate, how it lived it's life, what it's migrations patters are, and catching the fish in the most sustainable and difficult way possible. Spearfishers take less than .01% of the fish taken in the world. I release what I don't want by not shooting them, and I only catch what I want to eat!

    Freediving is one of the most demanding sports known to man. On a physiological level it is about as good as it gets for a workout! Add spearfishing to the mix and you have a massive adrenaline rush that will rival most drugs! Hard work, but very exhilarating.

  • @freedivingdan
    @freedivingdan  12 років тому

    It is difficult to describe why spearfishermen enjoy doing what they do. You just have to try it. It is not for everyone, but experiencing the death of your food can really give you full appreciation of what you are eating.

    I appreciate your comment. It is nice to see that even though you are not a hunter, you can appreciate the method I use to bring home my dinner. In fact, for valentines day, I made a hawaiian poke with avocado for my girlfriend, and she loved it. It is truly a blessing to harvest those fish.

    Awesome video. First time I see a profesional Spearfishing in salty waters. I use to spearfish with bike spokes and rubberbands in river at San Bernardino CA. These a huge fishes you are catching great job. I just love that Speargun, had never seen one with reel. Keep up the good work Dan. Im actually from Baja California, now in Mexicali. I love fishing no matter how i catch them. Take care amigo.

    Man, those Barracuda look so calm and graceful at 2:47, such a different view of Barracuda than what I'm used to seeing when I fish with them with rod & reel. I always pictured them as these vicious killing machines, the way the chase and strike irons on the surface. Nothing like buying a brand new UFO and having it covered in teeth marks by day's end.
