  • Little Barrier Island, also known as Hauturu, is a dream destination for spearfishermen. Located off the east coast of New Zealand's North Island, this uninhabited island boasts crystal-clear waters teeming with marine life, making it a prime spot for spearfishing.
    The Yellowtail Kingfish is one of the most sought-after game fish in the world of spearfishing, known for its speed, strength, and tenacity. These fish are a true test of skill and endurance.
    Join us as we explore the stunning underwater world of New Zealand's North Island, hunting for these incredible game fish. With its clear waters and abundant marine life, New Zealand is a spearfishing paradise, and we were lucky enough to capture some truly incredible footage of our underwater encounters.
    Watch as we dive deep, stalking our prey through rocky outcroppings and kelp forests, waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike.
    But our video is not just about the hunt - we also showcase the breathtaking beauty of New Zealand's coastal waters, with stunning footage of underwater landscapes and marine life. From schools of colorful fish to majestic rays and a whole host of other creatures, our video takes you on a journey through a world few get to experience.
    Whether you are a beginner or have "seen it all", Little Barrier Island offers an unforgettable experience. With its abundance of fish, stunning natural beauty, and rich biodiversity, it is a place where anything could happen.

    Great video. Dropping some serious knowledge bombs as well!

      I’m probably wrong about a lot of things but I try to say what people may find helpful. Y’all are smart enough to understand the footage so there is little point me objectively recounting every dive. What I talk about is often things I learn I my personal life that I adapt and apply to spearfishing. I’m young and have alot to learn but if I can share my knowledge and help others, then I am making the world a better place 🙏

    Good going buddy. Time in the water is the best form of experience, mother nature the teacher. Keep learning and grow into her.

      @BlueNeoprene  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you Nathan. It’s important to remember where we came from, we are not as different as we often think. Our relationship with Mother Nature is toxic and abusive. This can be fixed but it will be neither quick nor easy. Let’s work together to once again connect with the earth and stop trying to conquer it! 🦈

      I know that, I learnt a lot from a guy called Allan Langton RIP late 70's 80's.He was a great mentor to myself and Darren in those days we all worked together making dive suits so diving was pretty much a 24 hour thing, when you weren't doing it we talked about it..great days:). Ive got myself a gun and going to have another crack at spearfishing before to much much time passes:)

    • @BlueNeoprene

      That’s awesome dude. Spearfishing would be a lonely hobby if not for so many awesome people willing to help others and share knowledge. Get out there and catch a feed my bro! 😎

      @@BlueNeoprene I agree, to us it was more than just a hobby, there was something about the connection we all had with ourselves and the ocean and the moments we all experienced together that unless you are in the game many just wouldn't understand. Even after all these years the feelings and memories i still cherish
