  • In this video I go spearfishing with the Westpac rescue helicopter crew and we find some nice yellowtail kingfish - I pique their curiosity to bring them up from the wall and Simon gets his first fish. The second dive we head to Coromandel where I get taxed by a bronze whaler shark and manage to spear a big snapper on the weedline.

      Man I’m overly critical I guess, I watch it and think it’s average af and no point publishing. These dives are far from recent.

    Meeean bro. Wish Id got into spearing hard before I left NZ eh. Really appreciate the talk through, tips, time and effort you put into your vids. Bet Jim at tvnz wouldn't mind putting them on, as long as there's no child support bit.

    lol I was so confused by the video title, I thought you were using a Westpac rescue helicopter to go spearfishing -- anyway you boys are awesome, thankyou for your service and I'm glad you had a good time!

    Another epic vid. Whats the consciousness check you mentioned?

    • @AquaticRehabSpearfishing
      @AquaticRehabSpearfishing  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Usually with mammals (not fish) they can appear dead but you touch the eye and get a twitch if still alive (unconscious). With this fish the iki appears too far back so rub the face and grab the mouth to check for a reaction in a similar way, often fish look around if they paralysed. In this case it actually was slightly too far back so the brain stem is damaged but the fish is alive so the knife had to be dug into the same hole and blade toward nose. I see so many iki fails.

  • @PhantomMantis1

    Just curious how deep you were, I'm assuming quite deep that's why you brought fish up for your westpack mate

    • @AquaticRehabSpearfishing
      @AquaticRehabSpearfishing  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s not that deep but the current that your continuously finning into that makes it a difficult dive. I wanted to get him his first king and had no idea of his diving capability at the start. He freedived very well as I found out and was going down past that ledge. However with big schools of kingfish the very first time the breath hold is affected quite negatively and it’s just easier all round for me to at least try to bring the fish up. If it doesn’t work we change the tactic.

    Thanks for the footage bro, great work getting the fella out for his first kingy frothing, Hey random question what was that stuff floating in the water in the snapper section, and when was the footage from, I had a dive here on South coast NSW Aus, few weeks back and seems same stuff, something spawning?
