2 shore dives in Cornwall (Spearfishing)

Spearfishing pollock and bass in August

[@chrisgrigg32]

Another truly fantastic video. Brilliant visibility. Great to see you venturing into my home county. Divers on air, cheers gone bye

[@JoePkSpearfishing]

Thanks mate, Roger that.

[@markhowe5529]

[@j05here]

Awesome visibilty Joe! Barby looks nice at the end!

[@slrjona6755]

Great video

[@1kingkongkory]

Great video mate!

[@justinattwood798]

Nicely done 👍

[@rebornsmith7542]

Great video. Do you ever worry about sharks showing up?

[@JoePkSpearfishing]

Thanks. Not really. They are very scarce here!

[@jbm5381]

Really nice dives and fantastic environment. Being a beginner myself, I felt I was lacking some air at times when staring at this school of bass at the beginning...😂
Don’t you ever go back up to breathe??

[@dineshthirupuvanarajah7466]

Lovely video Joe. What fins do you use mate? Also do you find the Cressi 75 better for shore dives compared to the Tuna 90 I saw you use in the deep dives?

[@JoePkSpearfishing]

Some pretty flexible second hand carbon fins, I'm sorry I got them through a friend not sure what make. As for guns I just used a 75 in this video as I was on holiday with the family and was pushed for space, in clear water the 90 is usually my gun of choice as I find it has a bit more range/clout

[@christophersmith7714]

Joe, I'm really enjoying your videos. I like the commentary as well. Can you explain how you mount your gopro? Cheers. Chris

[@JoePkSpearfishing]

I've been thinking about making a video on my gopro mount as it would be rather difficult to explain. I fashion my own to a robust trusty design!
Many thanks for your comment, cheers.

[@JoePkSpearfishing]

As part of my 'informative video' series.

Thanks for sharing

Hey there. I'm a passionate and quite experienced freediver from germany and very interested in spearfishing, which is unfortunatly strictly prohibited here. I'm planning for a summer vacation with the family in the cornwall area next year and i'm wondering if i as a foreigner would be allowed to spearfish in the UK and what kind of permissions i would need.

[@JoePkSpearfishing]

You can spearfish here. There is no requirement for permit - just be aware of fish bag limits and size limits.

[@antoniototaro6485]

Very beautiful day. 👍

[@JoePkSpearfishing]

Antonio Totaro it certainly was! An shame I only had an old phone to film it

[@knightclan4]

What kind of fins do you use?
I’m ready to upgrade from cheap plastic to fiberglass or carbon.
I scuba also so want something that can work with either free diving or scuba

[@JoePkSpearfishing]

I use a medium stiffness carbon with a pathos footpocket 👍

[@About8Nuns]

where was this? im in cornwall aswell and am looking for a new spot. Would understand if u dont want to say tho

[@tsarchasm1499]

I heard it was from Kernow

[@kouvanos]

A. Do not pull the rope of your reel after the shot. Do that AFTER you reach the surface. It is dangerous having all that rope around your feet or stuck between some rocks and you when you are underwater.
B. Buy another knife and put both of them on to your belt. One to the left and one to the right.
Nice video 👍

[@JoePkSpearfishing]

Thanks, I bet it looks very different to the sea you hunt!

[@kouvanos]

Joe Pk it has the same dangers.
And since here in Greece we have a big spearo community and sharing every bad experience, I thought I say these ideas to you to prevent the worst

[@JoePkSpearfishing]

Thanks for sharing. I will occasionally flick the rope up so it doesn't get tangled in the kelp, but I can see how that can cause bigger potential problems...

[@lunox5243]

good shooting, do you get many problems with worms in the pollock meat over there?

[@JoePkSpearfishing]

It's very variable- one of these had no worms the other had quite a few in the belly I flick out with a knife

[@RobinHawdon]

WHERE THOUGH???

[@thearkofsalvationlondon1212]

Amazing! you No1 - UK

[@JoePkSpearfishing]

Haha, no mate there's countless more talented spearos than I in the UK, glad you enjoy the videos though!

[@CJ-gn8qm]

Was this scuba or free dive?

[@deathbyastonishment7930]

Free diving

[@thomaslee2416]

Where are you at?

[@juliustruscott939]

Where is this too?
please?

[@JoePkSpearfishing]

Kernow

[@jodu626]

Roseland?

[@JoePkSpearfishing]

jodu656481 actually the North Coast. Though Roseland is very cool.

[@jodu626]

Yeh I spear roseland. Looks like nare head. Great vids

[@JoePkSpearfishing]

jodu656481 thanks mate. I look forward to getting back in the water when the storms pass

[@jodu626]

Joe Pk I see you on UK spear fishing buddies on fb quite a bit. Give us a shout if ever you fancy a splash. It’s John Duncan.

[@JoePkSpearfishing]

@@jodu626 Sounds good

[@wcs1232]

Great video I love spearfishing but my breath holding is quite rubbish
