Bahamas wahoo and groupers on polespears- mini documentary

www.headhunterspearfishing.com
Cameron Kirkconnell and I (Brad Thornbrough) filmed this video back in January of 2010 during the delivery of a 34 foot Yellowfin to Chub Cay. Its funny to look back and see all our random pole spear prototypes. Less than a year after this The Headhunter Predator polespear and the Cameron Kirkconnell pole spear were in full production. Its also crazy to look back and see the fish we had shot with modified sea stinger tips....if only we had had Showstopper slip tips back then!
Here we are four years later and polespear have become very popular. Not just in Florida and countries that require them, but all over the world. The IUSA is now recognizing polespears and sling as a separate spearfishing world record category!
We are also putting together a few incredible trips to the Bahamas this spring and summer. If anyone has an interest in learning more about these trips, check out the webpage here:

Is there any way I can buy a 15 ft. Pole spear?

[@jimmyhaggas2225]

Nice video nice fish. How deep are you diving on average in these videos.

[@samuelbirdsong7371]

My question is where in the world do you get a 15 foot pole spear?

[@Dstick1Spearfishing]

[@christiandaehler5561]

[@lindaphillips9997]

[@Salty_004]

[@grgmsiiatyahoodotcom]

[@reaganrolle6103]

[@lilyleaf6097]

[@tonyy5482]

Might be good to spare some of big grouper, they take years to get to that size. Sounds like you are targeting a particular area and publicizing it to the world too - there may not be any left in 20 years time. ;)

[@ThePrinceOfPleasure]

Did you say you shot a dolphin near the end of the video?

[@dkwphotography341]

Called a Mahi Mahi, Dolphin Fish, or Dorado.

[@PepeDeezNutz]

Yup he killed flipper

[@GrimReaper5041]

argh I hate when I get cramps underwater!!

[@ned2315]

Didn't know bruce willis is into pole spearing

[@fishhead52m]

Great video !

[@eliotgreene3160]

Low key it seems cheap that you chummed the water and stuff to get the wahoo. I dont know much about this activity....thats just how i see it. But nice vid!

[@ddff4116]

what the fuck was that thrust at 2:13? doesn't look safe at all to do that at depth...?

[@rawsondenna6329]

Shot a dolphin?

[@deathbyastonishment7930]

A dolphin fish* not the mammal. They are also caked mahi mahi I think

[@khalidalhajri9187]

Catching a grouper with a spear is like killing a bear with a slingshot how the f did u get through its. Thick skull with a spear...?

[@deathbyastonishment7930]

Pole spears can be very powerful

[@kozzy_2458]

Who’s talking

[@olinwitt7754]

Don't spear lobster

[@Lue.sanis33]

If it went for AUTEC, you wouldn't have ever shot that wahoo, stick to your own island homie
