  • In our last days in Isola del Giglio, we get to see Polosub founder, Giuliano Tagliacozzo capture a magnificent dusky grouper with a complicated extraction. I'm on the hunt for a scorpion fish and try my luck in the deep for dentex.

    I am from croatia, and it is even harder to fish here. I swear I have seen dentex that would get better grades in school than me, they are that smart and cautious. Luckily I have seen some population increase in those areas, a few years ago finding dentex and dusky grouper was like searching for veins of gold, nearly impossible to get some but now it seems like the situation is getting better

    Hey, love your vids. Im a new spearo and I am wondering if you can do a vid on currents, what to watch out for and the causes, such as topography, it’s the main thing that worries me going out too far and I am finding little info on it. At the moment I don’t go out of bays but would like some more things to help me notice if it’s safe or not.
    Thanks!

    Hey brother, love your videos, but I wonder why won’t you do some color correction ?
    Being a diver myself I know that in reality the colors underwater are pretty much the same to what’s seen in your videos, but I think it’s more esthetically appealing when you add some heat and tint in post production, what is your take on that ?

    • @DanielMann
      @DanielMann  Před rokem

      Only so much you can push a GoPro/Osmo camera underwater with colour correction. I’ve done plenty of underwater stuff which is like you mention with larger camera setups. Also, all the shots are graded underwater to my liking, I guess it’s personal preference. I don’t like it looking too fake from what you’re seeing in reality.

      For loup de mer for sure it can work but probably not ideal for big groupers. Also sometimes you are fishing out of the holes in the same dive for snappers or sea breams.
