Another beautiful day in the sea. ~50 miles of a run to some of our favorite reefs resulted in an amazing day of freediving and spearfishing in unreal visibility. Enjoy the video!
loved it man. I am also in wilmington, but I fish out of southport usually. Excited for the water to warm up a little. How deep are you usually diving?
I'm also excited for the water to warm up soon. The spots we dive the most are in depths between 50-170 feet deep. I'm comfortable diving to around 80 feet deep before I won't really hit the bottom, but some places the fish are mid-water.
This is a sick video man I’m actually moving back into the area after being in Charlotte several years. I love to know if you recommend any Wilmington Spearo groups. Unfortunately, a lot of my friends are golfers and I’d rather die than do that lol
hey bud i am in sealevel nc. i have a series of questions you may or may not have answered already. what was your 1)distance offshore 2)depth to sand 3)exact date of this trip 4)water temp and wetsuit thickness 5)what type of sonar are you using to find your ledges? this is an incredible trip you should be very proud of these conditions
Hey Adam! Thanks for your questions. 1) between 40 and 70 miles from the inlet we go out of this day. We changed spots all day. 2) 60-80 foot to the sand 3) June 11, 2022 4) probably around 76-78 degrees, 3mm wetsuit 5) I’m not sure, but the GPS is a Garmin.
@@justinparr Cool! Thanks for the response! If you're looking for spearo buds, I'd love to link up and have you down to FL or to meet you in NC. I have a 25' boat that'd be great for it!
Hey, I'm traveling along the East Coast to do some spearing this week. Is NC good during this time of year? I also dont have a boat. Will that prevent me from getting where i need to be?
Hey Samuel! NC is good this time of year, but the weather is not. We can only dive when the weather cooperates. Without a boat, right now the best diving is in the waterways accessible by land, and the main targets are sheepshead and stone crab. Always go dive with another person, if you need someone maybe I can come dive with you.
@Justin Parr On mobile, it's not showing. I just got to hatteras Island, and im rigging up my gear to hit it in the AM. I'll make an insta and drop you a line. Hope all is well, man. So far, NC is gorgeous. If the water matches I might just move here 😂
Super awsome video dude thanx so much i realy enjoyed it til the end
Thank you Willie for watching and commenting 🤙
aint no way that's in the Carolinas, that is amzing
Sometimes I can’t believe it either
@@justinparr have you ever been up New England way?
To surf, not to dive. It looks good up there though for diving
@@justinparr certainly not what it used to be, but some remnants of kelp forest exist
😎🇺🇸🧜Actually Judging it by the growth on the rocks, That’s Easily in The Carolina’s
Thanks my brother. Great content. Realistically portrayed as well. Good stuff
Thank you! I appreciate you watching and commenting
Cool transition at 5:25! seems so peaceful down there
Thank you! It is very peaceful and relaxing
Love the emphasis on safety! Great video.
Thanks David! I don't like going diving without safe conditions and people I can trust. I'll always emphasize that.
Safety and ethical treatment of the fish. Great to see spearfishers spreading good values.
Good job bro 👌🏾
Thank you!
Guessing 30 feet . The natural light illuminated the soft coral great.
All of these spots we’re diving are 50-80 feet deep, we don’t really have anywhere that’s under 50 feet unless you’re right next to the beach
Do you use Garmin watch?
Hi! Yes I use a Garmin MK2s

Thanks Austin. A good place to start is the Facebook group - Carolina Freedivers. A bunch of people are active on that page and dive together.

Had to be with a name like that. Those are enormous bugs
What part of NC are you in?
Hey Luke! I'm based out of Wilmington
@@justinparr Cool! Thanks for the response! If you're looking for spearo buds, I'd love to link up and have you down to FL or to meet you in NC. I have a 25' boat that'd be great for it!
That would be sweet! I don’t own a boat, so I’m lucky whenever I can get out there with friends.
You can’t… you have to at least get the knuckles.
I try to every time. Sometimes they’re quicker than me.
