For me.....I love the fact that Justin is so humble.......he slays so many fish but he keeps composure......he so Authentic.....J Lee is boss man for sure.
When you remove the scales start from the head and then move your way back.By removing the first scales,the ones following won't find resistance and go off easier. Great vid!
That makes so much sense man thanks so much. I struggled so much it was awful. I think leaving it in the fridge for a day or two dried it out also and made the scales harder to remove.
For everyone wondering, after about 40-50 feet, there’s enough water pressure on your body that you actually start to become denser. You go from being buoyant on the surface to being able to sink, just another danger when diving and why you should have proper training and take safety precautions.
My name is Justin and I live on Oahu And I really liked this video , keeping it true and loving the respect that you guys have when it comes to diving . I’ve been diving for a while but you always get a chance to learn and that’s what I got out of this video. Thanks and keep posting awesome videos , looking forward to seeing the next one . Aloha 🤙🏼
Always love your videos with Justin, nice to see that even though you're an experienced diver yourself you can be humbled by someone whose been doing it for a lifetime. Keep them coming!
Thanks Troy! I’ve always gone out of my way to find people better than me to learn from. I think that’s key to get better in any sport. Me and Justin have a blast out there.
Oh, how I miss my spearfishing days along the north shore of Oahu. Goatfish were my favorite to catch and eat. Nothing fancy...just pan fry with salt, pepper, hot rice, and shoyu. Great video!
Quarentacos for sure. 100% agreed about hunting and fishing being essential activities. On my Instagram I did a post to let those spearfisherman/women or others who do similar things know that it’s an essential activity and to know what they’re allowed to. Great seeing you have fun out there 🤙
holy crap this channel is blowing up fast, Its cool to see you filming Justin cause its easier to learn and understand how you guys move and dive when I can see your guy's whole body🤙 at around 10:32 I recommend that you try that black fish in front of you its a type of wrasse called table boss and they are super good steamed fish
Ryan Myers yes that would be great to see our fish! I mostly bowhunt but I go out a few times a year to hunt underwater too. I’m gonna be applying some of your techniques next time for sure. Cheers!
I like my moana-kali with a light coat of mayo/garlic on the outside, onions in the belly... Lay it on a chunk of banana leaf, and another on top, then wrap in foil to bake. Simple, clean flavor... So good!!!
Thanks so much man will try this with the next one for sure and shout you out in the video! Always looking for new ways to cook fish. Bet that would be great on a camp fire too.
Awesome vid and lots of great info. Different spearos use different techniques, I agree with Justin’s method of holding the speargun from the middle or closer to the muzzle, (specifically for longer spearguns) it allows him to change direction / point when he spots the fish that he wants and extend it towards the fish, his motion is calm enough not to spook the fish and he seems to do it really well. If u find a spot on the bottom and know that the fish are gonna pass from a certain direction then it’s better to hold from the handle and be ready, but if u are in a spot that the fish can come in from ur 3 -9 o’clock then holding the speargun from the middle will allow u to easily turn it around and feed it out to the direction of the fish.
Epic videos! I really love how you share so many excellent tips for hunting and your approach of being super chill and non-threatening down there has changed the game for me. Thank you!
Awesome. Loving the adaptation of a spearo from somewhere else to what Hawaii offers. My expierence as well here on Maui. I will never be on your boys level but I can learn so much from your videos. Thanks! Please keep them coming!
Thanks Andrew ya I had been spearing all over the world but didn’t really learn to hunt till I first came to Hawaii. It’s a whole different field here.
Holy hell! Two takos on one dive? Justin is a beast haha. Awesome video as always! Sam that fish looks delicious! Might try that one some snappers this week!
You are a true kanaka maoli sir. Excellent education and thank you for malama aina. Awesome videos. Please always feel at home here in the islands. Aloha kaua.
Try grabbing some (choon Choi) Chinese fermented turnips. Mince that along with ginger and garlic. Place in the cavity of your fish then steam. And you greens shoyu and hot peanut oil. I am almost certain you will love it. Enjoy..
Awesome video. Thank you for putting the spot light on the smaller reef fishes. I think sometimes people get too hung up on going after the big game fish instead of just hunting for food and enjoying them with friends and family.
Thanks Ryan, another great vid. We have a blanket ban here in South Africa on beaches and going to sea so I guess it's just vicarious diving by watching you. Appreciate the tips.
Ryan. I watch a crap ton of spearo vids. This one is maybe the best I’ve ever seen. The commentary makes it. You only have a small following but your content and narration is as if you have 1/2 million subs. Keep it up.
Here in the Philippines, almost all the fishermen tell me to bite the eyes but I haven't seen where exactly so I haven't tried it yet. Thanks to your video I will try this when I can. Your videos are great, keep them coming!
Ryan Myers Awesome man. Always looking forward to your videos. Very informative and definitely entertaining, especially as most of us spearos are on the couch with what’s going on atm.
Great video Ryan! I know how much effort goes into this behind the scenes so thank you for sharing. Tips on handsfree equalizing? Also any reason for not scaling fish in the water?
Thanks yup tons of work. I much prefer to scale in the water but ruins the picture after. And I’m not always sure what’s happening with the fish till we get out. I wish I could help you hands free but all I’ve got is figure out how to hands free “click” your ears on land then click and hum and hold. And repeat. It’s a muscle that needs to be worked out.
Awesome video, guys. Seems to be a nice balanced underwater chemistry and understanding between the two of you. Like two master hunters unspoken connection ninja shit! GREAT videos you are putting out. Mahalo
You can make a cherreh fish scale with 2 Heineken caps or long board caps screwed into a solid piece guava stick/koa wood. Make sure you use stainless steel screws (lasts longer). Aloha
Awesome catch guys. Appreciate you guys showing how to properly harvest fish without going overboard and raping the grounds. Much aloha guys, once again great catch.
Nice. 😎 Love watching u guys spearfishing. Here in Puerto Rico no one is allowed to go fishing during the quarantine except licensed commercial fishermen. Every culture has their own ways and traditions of fishing. When I catch an octopi I flip it's hood inside out and pull it's guts out. I'll try biting it next time. Keep the videos coming and I wish you guys much success. 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Tucked gun= less resistance in my opinion. Keep those videos coming! Miss those old days when I could dive that deep. By the way try using it leaves to steam the fish better to help the fish stay soft 😁🤙🏾
Ryan Myers i learned that from my uncle who taught me how to dive when i was 8...im about to be 30 and till today i still use it...make a video on it and let us know how it works out for you my braddah GOD BLESS!!!
Another soy sauce for you to try if you can get it in Hawaii is the Seasoned Soy Sauce from Lee Kum Kee, what my family has used for steamed fish for decades.
amazing channel. makes me want to go fishing and eat fresh fish! in french polynesia we use little corals that we find on the beach to scale the fish. or if you can't find any, you should use a fork. imo it's better than a knive for scaling fish

He really is stoked to call him a friend.
Honestly I hope more people subscribe..I feel like Ryan is capturing real Hawaiian culture on spear fishing. Keep it up!!!!
thanks Neil that means a lot!
Do explain. I’d love to know exactly what it is that you mean.
I’ve been spearfishing for over 30 years. And I think your videos are awesome ! Keep them coming
Thanks so much Daniel!!! Lots more coming stay tuned!!!

Great vid!
That makes so much sense man thanks so much. I struggled so much it was awful. I think leaving it in the fridge for a day or two dried it out also and made the scales harder to remove.
@@RyanMyersExpeditions Yes fish dried under the sun are also hard to de scale!I always let them soak in water first for a couple of min!
Use your thumb under the scales on uhu. Quick tip
Seriously, the best videos ever. I hunt deer and elk every year, but wish I could go spear fishing every week.
Ahh I hunt fish every week but want to hunt deer and elk. Getting bow dialed this week and then hopefully some hunting videos.
@@RyanMyersExpeditions honestly bradda get enough pig out puna side for hunt 3x a week. Chee 🤙🏽
Im no diver. But you guys got some talent for sure. 🤙
Thanks having a blast with these.
What you talking about uncle nick your the new up coming hammah !
fr uncle nick one of the coolest fishermen in hawaii

Facinating I hope i find the opportunity to learn

Troy Okazaki Ryan’s an epic diver and there so much to learn from him as well. It’s just a blast diving with a guy like ryan
Oh, how I miss my spearfishing days along the north shore of Oahu. Goatfish were my favorite to catch and eat. Nothing fancy...just pan fry with salt, pepper, hot rice, and shoyu. Great video!
they're the best. gonna have to try it just like that

Great video! Keep em coming! My buddie and I are gonna start diving out here in SoCal. Nice to see people living the good life!
What a great channel. My kids and I love watching together. Thank you Ryan for keeping it clean, humble and of course great content!
Thanks guys! I wish I was making videos while I was on Africa. Desperately need to make another trip out there. Thanks for the support!
Ryan Myers yes that would be great to see our fish! I mostly bowhunt but I go out a few times a year to hunt underwater too. I’m gonna be applying some of your techniques next time for sure. Cheers!
Love Sam’s dance moves while she eats. Can the next video just be her breaking down that choreography for us?
Agreed she makes this video.
Excellent diving and great team work! Love seeing people dive like this.
Thanks man we had a blast!
Best spearfishing Hawaii catch and cook steamed fish video ever!
Thanks man best recipe we’ve eaten yet too. Going to have steamed joe for dinner tonight.
I like my moana-kali with a light coat of mayo/garlic on the outside, onions in the belly... Lay it on a chunk of banana leaf, and another on top, then wrap in foil to bake. Simple, clean flavor... So good!!!

Stoked to have helped you out!!! Thanks for watching!
10/10 for not setting the kitchen on fire with the boiling oil :-) Another great video
So true it was close though...oil was way too hot.
Awesome. Loving the adaptation of a spearo from somewhere else to what Hawaii offers. My expierence as well here on Maui. I will never be on your boys level but I can learn so much from your videos. Thanks! Please keep them coming!

Best fish scaler, couple of beer bottle caps nailed to a piece of wood. Hawaiian styleeee....epic vids
Brandon Kaina yes! Justin tried to make me one the other day. Seriously need something cause I’m going to make steam fish all the time now.
@@RyanMyersExpeditions spoon better than a knife in a pinch by a long ways
Thank you so much for taking the time to make these awesome videos. I really love the tips and will be rewatching this countless times
Glad you enjoy it Jay and thanks for watching!!!

awesome tip will definitely give that a try!
Boostin that algorithm! This Chanel deserves way more subs . Keep up the great work !

definitely agree on that!
man those stone shots are awesome...
Thanks guys dude is a beast!
I SO want to spearfish someday!!!! I am loving these vids!
Get out there man we all started somewhere!
Great job guys... I just noticed that Sam has two different colored eyes So cool. That fish looked delicious 😋
It really was and ya she’s a special one.
Thanks Ryan, another great vid. We have a blanket ban here in South Africa on beaches and going to sea so I guess it's just vicarious diving by watching you. Appreciate the tips.
that sucks man. we're lucky out here
Best spearfishing channel ever!
cheee thank you!
Sick on the two tali’s one dive Justin! Great video Ryan

Good to see young people enjoying the hawaiian life🤙🏾

Thanks Angie yes he is a beast! Will try it with a snapper when we get home.
Ryan. I watch a crap ton of spearo vids. This one is maybe the best I’ve ever seen. The commentary makes it. You only have a small following but your content and narration is as if you have 1/2 million subs. Keep it up.
Thanks so much for the support we work super hard on these and are growing fast!
Another awesome video! Loved to catch weke ula off the Makapuu pier back in the day. Nothing better than eating your fresh catch.
I love your videos. Keep them coming
Thanks Dan more on the way!
Ryan Myers would you do a video about the freediving techniques or exercises that have helped you dive and hunt at great depth?
Ha ha the coqui in the background had me going outside because I thought it was here in Haiku.
Lol ya the coqui get everyone on my videos!
Justin is a machine!
He really is.
great video, always need that friend when spearfishing to watch your back
absolutely. thanks for watching
Such epic videos, educational and entertaining. Cant wait for the next one!!
Thanks Cam! Hopefully new one out tomorrow!
Awesome video man, every video gives out some great tips to help improve my own diving. Such sick footage, you're an inspiration mate!

Here in the Philippines, almost all the fishermen tell me to bite the eyes but I haven't seen where exactly so I haven't tried it yet. Thanks to your video I will try this when I can. Your videos are great, keep them coming!
A video of edge diving in The Bahamas, spearfishing groupers and pelagics would be awesome. Possible techniques on how to find and approach groupers.
Ok thanks ya I’ve got tons of bananas footage to go through.
Ryan Myers Awesome man. Always looking forward to your videos. Very informative and definitely entertaining, especially as most of us spearos are on the couch with what’s going on atm.

Can you do breathing tips?
Dana Bui yeah I would like that
YAAASSSS!!
Yes

Killing it, epic tips, tricks and especially cooking
Thanks Connor more cooking ones on the way!
Underrated TH-camr
You need way more subs your content is amazing Your awesome!
Thanks man just getting started!!
Ryan Myers Np! Yeah I know I’m so glad discovered you!
Bro DIY fish scaler...take 2 bottle caps and screw em to a stick with the bottom of the cap facing out....thats old school hawaiian style
Thanks man gotta try that!
Ryan Myers i learned that from my uncle who taught me how to dive when i was 8...im about to be 30 and till today i still use it...make a video on it and let us know how it works out for you my braddah GOD BLESS!!!
Epic episode bro keep em coming🤙🏼
Thanks!!! Glad you enjoyed it more on the way!!!
Another soy sauce for you to try if you can get it in Hawaii is the Seasoned Soy Sauce from Lee Kum Kee, what my family has used for steamed fish for decades.
Sweet great tip thanks so much I’ll keep an eye out for it.
superb hunting guys , wish i was home hunting those
Thanks!!! Super lucky to be here in Hawaii right now.
amazing channel. makes me want to go fishing and eat fresh fish!
in french polynesia we use little corals that we find on the beach to scale the fish. or if you can't find any, you should use a fork. imo it's better than a knive for scaling fish
Wow love the coral idea that’s amazing. Thanks for the tip!
Tried out the recipe and it came out sick. Nice video, thanks for sharing
That’s awesome man glad you liked it!!
Man...I never did spearfishing, but man you make me wanna try! Kinda jealous..
Best way to fish ever hope you give it a try and thanks for watching!!!
@@RyanMyersExpeditions Awesome channel, keep making videos brother!
That was dope great video and very educational🙌🏼
