- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ก.ค. 2024
- I've dived in 5 different countries trying to spear a dentex and my dream finally came true in Southern Spain. If you've watched the channel for a while you will know how much this fish means to me and we honour it with a charcoal grill - simply delicious.
A massive thank you to Pablo from Orca spearguns and Rojas for guiding me on this day. As always my wife Hannah for supporting me and joining in on the adventure.

Just as I was scrolling through thinking there was nothing to watch! Thank you!!
Hope this helps!
Exactly!
You don't know how happy I am about that denton! Believe me, I've been following you for a long time and you really deserved it! They are very complicated fish.
I hope you have enjoyed the waters "el estrecho", with a lot of life but not suitable for everyone.
You need to learn a little Spanish, and Pablo some English!!! I'm on vacation this week too.
A big hug.
Thank you Pablo, yes so many languages to learn a little about 🤣
@@DanielMannnext time call me!! @pablo avisarme cabrones ahahaha
You graduated as a spearfisher in Europe 🙏❤️
It’s funny how much more difficult things in tue Mediterranean are. I am Italian myself and have fished both in the Mediterranean as well as various oceans around the world.
I had never realised how difficult catching anything meaningful in the Mediterranean was until an aussie buddy pointed out that at the same depths in Australia he catches monster fish with very little effort.
Here in europe the fish seem to be smarter, more alerted and stay deeper.. congrats on your catches!
So cool to see you finally secure a dentex! There's nothing like success after a long, hard hunt. Congratulations Dan!
Five years and 10:40 on the video and finally you got it. Congratulations 🎉👏🎉 I'm so happy for you My friend.
I’m happy for you man!
A nice wreck, a good dive, an even better shot and the well deserved Dentex is finally caught!!!
You re the man!!! 👊
Thanks Dimos. And also thank you for answering all my questions over the years about dentex 🤣
Next challenge is to catch a dentex here in Greece!
Landing in Greece today!
@@DanielMann Xaxaxa good luck my frieand!
Dentex is a very smart fish here in Greece.
If you have the opportunity try to fish in ionian sea.
It's just wonderful!!!
Way to go Dan! Good to see you finally get it done
Epic Dan! Stoked for you!
So stoked to see this next run of adventures. Killing it mate
Well done Dan!!!! Happy for ya mate!
So gassed for you!!, I know how much that meant to finally get one. Been following your mission for a Dentex for ages, congrats!!
Congratulations Daniel🎉🎉 know it's been a long time coming... super happy for you!👌 DENTEX!!
Really cool to see you travelling our land!! Keep up the great work
Video/video series idea that I think a lot of people would find really helpful:
1 time video would be how to find spots when you're new to the sport, what to look for, what features and areas favour what species etc.
The series: I'd love to see a how to hunt series. Could use lots of footage you already have and just what techniques are best used to hunt each species, how and where to find them, bass, pollock and mullet could be an obvious start but can branch out to more.
I think these could be both entertaining and really helpful to us newbies
Congrats Dan!!! Very exciting, and I think one of my favorite vids of yours to watch. Great vibes and lots of adventure and fish for the Mediterranean
A great video with a lot of fun catching new fish and knowing their names in Spanish is a great experience
Congratulations Daniel 🎊 👏 at long last my man!
Thank you for the excellent video, enjoyed every moment.
Good on ya for sticking with your goals and dreams Dan! So happy you could take the rest of us along with you. Stoked for ya buddy!
Cheers Russell!
glad you finally got one
So glad you caught your first dentex amigo! With Rojas and Pablo you were in excellent hands. Now you need to come back for the grandad Dentex
The excitement 🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
Very happy for you Daniel for the dentex enjoy you're trip in Spain
Congrats mann! 🎉
Congratulations Dan ! Unforgettable experience 👌🏻
Always enjoy your vids Dan, gotta love the universal language of being a spearo
Watching the second one get away reminded me of the sleeping one on the sand that tore off. Again congrats on a fish that took 5 years to end up one the boat with you.
Nice one! Glad you finally got one.
well done, nothing like that feeling of a quest fish. these are rare moments. the dentex is indeed the king of the Mediterranean .
Yes! Nice work! That gun looked super smooth too!
Congrats man, what a thrill to finally bag one!
I bet that tasted so good, what a memory for you guys.
So happy for you Mann! Congratulations!
Cheers Luca!
Great one!
Really could feel your happiness for that catch 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
So happy for you. Great to see regular videos from your trip.
Cheers Fred!
Ι spearfish in Greece specifically in Rhodes and everytime I see a spearfishing video in Spain I feel like I have still hope for Mediterranean Sea
its the culture of fishing here needs to change we need to educate catch and release we need to create re reefing programs for damaged areas of the sea in both spain and greece we need to introduce catch and release methods to allow locals and tourists to not only take away from the sea but feed the eco system and help it thrive.
Congrats Danel! Nice catches! And nice video!
Gratz man!
Incredible trip and awesome way to accomplish a lifelong goal!
FINALLY! Congras mate :)
Another great video
Congratulations 👏 it is a dream come true for every spearo!!
Congratulations mate!
Always so excited to see there is a new spearfishing video from you! Awesome video as always and congratulations on catching the beautiful dentex!
Thank you Tino 🙌
congratulations and thank god... you earnt it!
Great video Dan. Enjoyed alot
Thanks Dave 🙌
Dentex finally, well done Daniel, congratulations, regards from England 🍺🍺👍
I waited so long for this to finally happen
I grew up in Málaga and used to do spearfishing mostly in the Mediterranean. When l could finally drive, l went to the Atlantic and oh my, what a wonderful experience. How incredibly beautiful everything was... and so much fish all over (talking about 20 years ago)!
l remember, you had to be 'very' careful with the currents (there were currents flowing deep under water, too). You needed someone knowledgeable up on the surface controlling the boat...
Thanks for the video and bringing me back to my country and the beautiful Atlantic waters!
woop woop, finally!
Looks like a pretty sweet reward. Thanks for all the great videos.
Cheers Martin!
Great video, and your interactions and effort to get to know other cultures through spear fishing is great, i’d love to see you coming to galicia!
Thank you for sharing. Enjoyed your footage. Take care from New Jersey, USA👍
Heeey Daniel , we always see your videos am from Latvia , u da best man

So much life, so much to look at, great fish Daniel, all your hard work paid off in the end!

Thanks Jack 🙌 The stuff from Sicily is pretty crazy with all the caves we found.
@@DanielMann can’t wait. Thanks! 👍🏼
Happy for you mate! I'm from New-Caledonia, and I live in Québec since 2014. I envy you so much right now!
Congrats Dan, finally you got it..🤙🏽🤙🏽

Thanks for the ongoing support Jaco!
Awesome man! i followed your quest for Dentex and i am very glad (and jealous) you got one! keep posting this awesome stuff!
Cheers! A few more to come
What an AWESOME video this was to watch loved following your journey in the mediterranean for the fabled dentex cant wait for the next chapter and hopefully a 5 Kg+ Dentex next!!
5kg would be incredible, thanks for watching!
Fantastic storytelling and great to see Han Mann out diving with you! Highlight for me was the popping of champagne that was on a par with the dentex 😍😘😍
Thank you good sir!
WOW, so happy for you Daniel! Yes, those inverted rollers are next level with virtually no recoil! Once I saw your video come up I HAD to wait for Saturday morning to fully enjoy it!
Glad you enjoyed it Roland!
new vid. YESSS ...peace out
Lets goooooo!!!!
I love lt and respect it that you adapt to every place you go special spero 👑
Cheers Bradley!
awesome footage
The quest for the Dentex ended fatally for a dear friend of mine. He was found unconscious some 3m below the surface, sadly never regained consciousness again. A 3kg Dentex still on the spear. A sad, sad ordeal. From what I've experienced with black outs, I hope he went in peace, doing what he loved so much.
Omg makes me so happy. I was going to tell you about a spot I know in Croatia.
the first one is the best memories ! nice fish mate ;)
Brother Congratulations on the Dentex
👊😎
The stoke is real. Well done Mann!
Thanks Sambo, was over the moon.
Well done mate. Keep up the good work
Much appreciated Kurt 🙌
Fantástico. Parabéns 💪💪
It’s about damn time! Haaha, CONGRATS!
Thanks a lot 🙌
Congratulations on the Dentex!
Thanks Joachim!
just keep making new videos you are the best spearfishing vloger
Respect from Trinidad and Tobago Full %100
Cheers!
It’s awesome seeing how excited you were in the beginning of the video. I think that’s how I’m going to be when I finally go spearfishing in Hawaii or somewhere where I can see more than 5 feet in front of me. Much love from Boston, USA!
Thanks Bruno, I hope you love the clear water when you find it.
Congrats Daniel, you deserved it.
Congrats, perseverance works !
Cheers!
OMG YOU GOT ONE 😍 Spain was the key. The med is a tough dog. Gratulations
So happy to see you finally catching a dentex! I'm smiling from ear to ear in front of the screen :)
Thanks mate!
Nice job bro, I just bought an entire spear fishing setup because of you. Thanks for the great content, congrats on the dentex!
That’s awesome and thank you 🙏🏻
You should most definitely come to Portugal I am a 14 old boy and always dreamt of spearfishing.My family has a intricate relationship with the sea because we have a tradition of catching tunas each year ,giant 400kg bluefins in the Algarve,with our centuries old nets ,the variety our sea has to offer amazes me and each time I go on the boat to see the tunas I wonder what else is hiding in the deepness ,perhaps you should come here or to the scores or Madeira archipelago and check the sargos here too!
so nice idol.... good catch.. congrats
Happy to see you finally caught your dream fish in Spain after the sleeping dentex and other close calls in previous videos and thank you for you videos on how you prepare your gear it has helped a lot of us here in the Philippines. I hope you get a massive dentex on your next video! Cheers mate
Thank you Rouel!
Congratulations Mann! I’m fairly new to the channel. I’m not a diver; hell, I don’t think I’ve been deeper than 3 meters in my life! Even I can see that this is top quality stuff mate. Top quality video, editing, narration, content … you’ve got it all going on here and from what I’ve already binged, it keeps getting better. 🍻
Thanks for watching dude!
Congratulations Daniel for a capture so persecuted. Greetings from Spain 🐟🎯 Good blue🙃
Boom. Finally got it hoorah
