    ❤ I just love how you use your experience from NZ shore and use it in the shore of Samoa not many divers goes beyond the reefs but you have actually showed it’s not as scary as they use to describe growing up there🙏 stay safe and enjoy the hospitality Samoan is offering my brother❤

    With Mu, dust some sand or rub your finger on coral but the key is to look down, don’t let them see your eyes for as long as you can and they’ll come in 🤙🏽. Love your respect for each fish you shoot and the places you dive, thanks for sharing! I can’t wait to dive a place like Samoa and shoot some fat red snapper!

      Back in the 70’s I did a fair bit of spearfishing in Australia and you’re so right about not letting most fish see your eyes! I was very wary about having any speared fish near my body! Always used a fish float with 60’ of line, one end to the float and the other end to my gun if I had to drop the gun for any reason.
      Really loving the videos as I don’t dive anymore.

    Nice Mangrove Jack at 17.45min. Brillant eating
    With the MSP and Muu don't chase them, lay on the bottum and sand dust. Don't take long shots on MSPs as they will hang in the same location. They love their Bombie and caves.
    Red bass are srsly meh eating and will stay around for ever esspically if you chum up, shoot them last as they will spook the Muu/Jack's and MSP

    For anyone interested, at the second spot Ollie speared 2 red fish. One is a red bass and the other is a mangrove jack. I would dare say the mangrove jacks are a bit rarer and smarter. Good catch!

    • @markumbers5362
      @markumbers5362 Před rokem +1

      Yes it is important to know this because while mangrove jack are fine red bass have a bad reputation for Ciguatera poisoning in Australia. Neither are mou.

      @@markumbers5362 Mu means red in samoan thats why they call both of those fish Mu. Also I can say that Red Bass are ok for cig in Samoa having speared and eaten quite a few big ones. However to be safe I would go for the smaller models

I reckon you could easily do a one off Ollie Movie if the internet speed allowed. You are now up there Ollie with your presentation and now on occasion introducing your buddies makes it great viewing. Thank you Ollie, always exciting to see a new vid.
