Thanks for tuning in Bob! Yeah, it was crazy how many different types of triggers there were! I wasn't sure if any part of this would work out (the fishing OR filming), but I was pleasantly surprised with the end result! I'm hoping to give this a go in our home waters at some point! Not sure if it will happen this season, but eventually!
Thanks! Yeah, I wasn't sure if anyone had ever tried this before, but after doing so much snorkeling, and only catching a fraction of the species of fish that I'd seen from shore, I figured I'd have to go big to try and get some more variety! Fortunately, the gamble paid off! Thanks for watching!
This week I was on holidays on the Mediterranean side of the South of France fishing with the rod without any results but he fishes were there. I the grab the snorkel glasses and tube and a 1,5m of fishing line with a hook on one side and a piece of wood of 10cm on te other side. The result was amazing! In 3 minutes I have fished all the fish for the family lunch. Your technique it's amazing, but submerge the reel it's a issue for me. Thanks for sharing it 😉👌
Very interesting and enjoyable video. That last fish is called a Hinalea. They are easy to catch but hard to clean because they are soft and slimy. I recently started going fishing again. Fun thing to do!
Very very cool, a great vantage point and perspective. I would totally watch more of this style. You had quite the school of triggerfish following you at the end there! That painted one is the state fish with the crazy name I was telling you before.
Thanks Peter! Yeah, I figured that might be the fish you were referring to, they are absolutely gorgeous, each one is like a miniature work of art! I do want to give this style of fishing a go in the Northeast... I'm thinking either Fluke or Tog might be a good target! I remember a couple of seasons ago, the fluke were so thick inshore that they were jumping out of the water, and nearly on shore to ambush bait... clearly, this is NOT one of those seasons... but maybe next year! Otherwise, I've spearfished Tog before, and they're generally pretty chill when you swim around them! I wouldn't be surprised if they would hit a crab from a similar snorkel set up... but who knows! Regardless, thanks for checking out the video!
@@FishinAccomplished only one way to find out! yea i think it would be really awesome to see that. I would totally be doing more swimming/spearfishing around here but the water is not clear in the summer and when it starts clearing up in the fall it gets too cold to enjoy. Maybe in montauk the clarity is good in the summer?
The grouper you saw is called roi and is an invasive species of Hawai'i. If you ever do catch them make sure to not throw them back. The other 2 invasives to look out for are toau and ta'ape. The wrasse you saw is called a hinalea.
Interesting, I had no idea that they were invasive and didn't belong there... if I did, I might targeted them a bit more rigorously! Thanks again for the IDs, information, and comment!
This is so rad. Never seen anyone fish like this. The perspective for video is really fun to watch. So much variety in all the different trigger fish!

This looks like so much fun 🤩
Thanks cuz, hope you get to try this out one day, it was every bit as fun as it looked!
Dude that was an epic finale. Never seen anyone fish that way before!! Lots of different species too!

Haha, happy this worked for you! Yeah… this can be hell on your reel!

Thanks for the fish IDs, and info on the species! Glad to hear you're getting back in the action, tight lines!

@@PeterRanieriII I hear you! Water clarity is hit or miss, but if you get out there on some of the calmer days, you can see quite a bit!

No shark sightings I hope.
No, no sited sharks fortunately! If I did see one, I would have booked it out of the water ASAP!
