Shot man!

Thanks liam!

Thank you!

Well the decline definitely has nothing to do with spearfisherman, its trawlers and long line fisherman doing the damage. A kob is a fine fish to take when spearfishing since it is rare to get a oppurtunity on them here and they are excellent eating. I do not think you get silver kob here, only dusky. I do agree its sad how fish numbers have taken down for lots of species and i hope it can be reversed!

@@Jeanlerouxspearfishing I'm afraid that's not true. We love to blame trawlers and commercials for our woes, but a lot of our species are hit inshore. Most of the pressure comes from recreationals, boats and shore, with an unknown element from illegal gillnets in estuaries. I encourage you to google "status of south african marine fishery resources 2023" (I can't post a link here). Spearos like us aren't the main contributor for dusky kob, true, but do we really want to contribute, even in a small way, to this decline? 1.3% is absolutely critical, possibly beyond collapsed. I really hope the government can impose a total fishing ban on dusky kob, ASAP. Luckily we have good fish in SA, many of which you have seen and shown us. No need to hunt the endangered species.

@@Jeanlerouxspearfishing I'm afraid that's just not true. We love to blame commercials and chinese trawlers for our woes, but the reality is that we recreationals are responsible for the decline of a lot of inshore species. I encourage you to search for "Status of the South African Marine Fishery Resources 2023". There is a good estimate of different fishing pressures on various fish (not all, sadly, but the most important, including dusky kob). The summary is that recreationals, boat and shore, comprise the vast majority of that pressure. Spearos less so, but do we really want to be adding to the strain? 1.3% is really critical. We're talking about population collapse.

@@mat86100 dude I just had a rare opportunity to try and spear a kob which basically noone in pe gets, in transkei and natal spearos are spearing them daily, i am really aware of endangered fish and choose what i want to spear, for intance i have left dozens of large rockcods. No need to get pressed

Why would we hurt him bro 😭

Thanks my dude 🙏

Howsit my dude. Nah in the Tsitsikamma 😊🤙

@@Jeanlerouxspearfishing goood good Lekka ye pe is kak right now to dive from person experience wild coast right now impossible

@@Liamspearfishing-uo1in 😅 yeah i know bro, i’ve atleast gotten quite a bit of diving in the bay the last bit but wildsides been trashhh

@@Jeanlerouxspearfishing ye I tried but impossible to swim out but in the small gullies there is some big big mullet but next week will be good hey to dive there apparently

@@Liamspearfishing-uo1in Dm me on insta if u want to talk more bro @jean.le.roux

Hey, yeah well done on figuring out the spot 😅 basically that precise area you can only get to the rocks at low tide except if you are ok to swim across it at high, when there would be more fish. But for sure a fishable spot 😊 thanks for watching!

Haha secret cray reef 😉 Port elizabeth

Ahhhh no man that sucks! I hope you get out there soon and get that fish. Thanks for the support dude👊

Yeah 😔

Shot Brian!

Haha yeah it was. Thanks Liam!

🔥🔥💪

Thanks man

Thanks toc!

Thanks dude I appreciate it!!

Nope! But close 😉

@@Jeanlerouxspearfishing ohh white steenbras

Sho dude 🤙

Thanks dude. Yeah PE’s always beautiful

Why? Fishing is illegal of the pier. You cant spear fish on these sand flats they just swim away. Its just nice to see

Thats crazy! What type of shark was that, and where did you dive

@@Jeanlerouxspearfishing By the coast of Cata Venezuela, around 1966. It was Grey, no special markings. Most sharks I have met under 9 Ft and usualy 6-7 ft. There once a whale aproached, went by and when it came back I dove and aproached very close

Thanks dude 🤙

brooklyn blood pop
