- The 34th Euro African Spearfishing Championships were held at the end of May in Erdek, Türkiye. I was the captain and competitor for the team along with Ross Gilfilan, Dave Stephens and Dave O'Callaghan as reserve. All fish from the competition were thankfully accepted as donations to a local charity helping people in need.

Fantastic video alongside a fantastic effort from all of you Gents representing Team GB and Spearfishing in the UK. We are all extremely proud of you, and we couldn't have asked for a better team! 🥰💯🔥 All our best, the BSA Xx
Thank you very kindly Mr. Chairman 🙏🏻
Great job on both the competition and the video! Frustrating that not everything seemed transparent with the weigh in. You did well to hold your tongue and still communicate what was happening.
Nice to see your POV of the championship Dan. We had so many similar experiences and findings. Thanks for making this video. 🙏
Thanks Michael, I look forward to seeing your perspective soon too. Thank you again for the fantastic photo 🙏🏻
Thanks for comment on Montenegro results! It means a lot to us. First time on international competition and we do a great job! 31:10
You guys did exceptionally well! Credit where credit is due! I hope to see you and the rest of the team at future events.
@@DanielMann see you… we can organise some diving in September or October in Montenegro.
This has no relation to Croatia but I recently went on a trip to qld and shot my first Spanish mackerel all thanks to the inspiration Daniel Mann has given me and the many things i have learned from his videos hands down best youtuber when it comes to making videos about spearfishing
Congratulations on the first Spanish mackerel 💪
Great video as usual Dan... Great to look back at all the moments we had, certainly brought back a lot of good and lets say indifferent memories!
Just got done watching day one scouting. And I gotta say damn good to see you again Daniel. You're back with a new video for us. Thank you.
Thank you very much 🙏🏻
Croatia is the winner. Turkish, as expected did some murky shit. Great job man
Shame it comes to that
Certainly some things a lot of people were not happy with and me included 🤐
As expected?
@@Blue_8800 Yeah...would you ever expect anything good from a turk?
@@iwshfg6 feel sorry for you...
Great vid Dan, this made for a very interesting watch 😊 Particularly loved the corb footage 😍 Glad you managed that sleeping big boy.
Great video and insight Dan, always love watching yours comp vids and seeing how different they're run! Seemed like there were a fair few congers weighed, you guys didn't manage to scout any?
Ross found one at around 24m. After the competition I found out the Croats on the first day found a string of rocks or ledges with 10+ congers in it. Definitely needed to spend some time with the side scanner finding those rocks. Also Croats dive for congers a lot in their competitions so are very well versed in finding them and extracting them.
Awesome video - great that you guys kept your heads up despite anything that might be going on behind the scenes with the weighing, hard to do when you feel the tide is against you so big respect ✊
I am from Morocco. This is what you do well. You have good points in the sea
nice day❤❤❤
Weighin's sound super dodge...
Not by the book this one but the 50g scale is the same for everyone.
Great video hope to see you in Greece soon!!
I'm trying to understand, the event was in Turkey, The men's winner was from Turkey and their men's team took first place While some of the weighing happened unmonitored!
No way that corb was still sitting there I think you should go buy a lottery ticket Dan 😂 epic vid mate 🤙🏽
I couldn’t believe it either. There was a French and Algerian diver no more than 30m away fishing on the same bit of reef. I thought to myself, leave no stone unturned in this comp and went just out of the way to look at that crack. I couldn’t believe it. No torch, 60cm gun and dropped straight down on top of it. Made my day!
I’ve been waiting for the next video 🎉🎉🎉
Awesome vid Dan! nice of the other clumsy team to leave a big, obvious marker for you guys🤣 - They may as well have given you their gps unit
Shame on the organizers for this tournament doing some shady shit to help Turkey come in first. I know you may not be able to so forwardly bash it, so let me do it for you. Croatia climbs to first, turkey disqualified and Daniel wins for this amazing video. Loved the whole thing mate. Well, except for the weighing portion. Booo cheaters boooo
Well done mate - and nice vid!
Thanks Rowan!
Complimenti Daniel.
Grazie mille Mario!
A very good sunday
The very best!
Too kind 🙏🏻
Great video. Unfortunately it looks like water was murky which is not usual in turkey, at least the turkey I visited, with incredible cristal clear water
I think because this is the Sea of Marmara and not the Aegean that is why. It's kind of halfway between the Med and the Black Sea.
Davao has a beauty of a hat on 🇨🇦
He’s got good taste 👌
Hi Dan... what happens to all the fish which is caught on big competitions like this one? Does it get used?
Yes, as you can see in the description it was all donated to a local charity to support those in need. Nothing wasted at all.
How do you get into spear fishing, been wanting to for a while but I don't even know how, or where to start, what's best practice for finding locations to dive and what's the best way to be safe about it
Great video. Can't wait till winter is over here in new zealand. What torch do you use?
Thanks Ryan, I use the Omer eyelight 2. Highly recommended.
Daniel, what rank did you and your team mates achieve?
Thank you for the fantastic Video and the excellent narration.
Greetings from Switzerland 🇨🇭
I got 29th, Dave Stephens 32nd and Ross 55th. For the teams we were 15th out of 18.
u know u at a good healthy live reef when the pistol shrimp noise gets loud...
Thats some shady stuff! I would boycott that comp in Turkey from now on out!!!!
Just bought carbon fiber fins they are so AMAZING i also wanted to get a wet suit but i really dive in the months between April and September so mostly warm months so i just have a dive skin….but can you guys help me like what do you think should i get it? By the way its a 3mm thick and i was thinking just buying the top piece not really cold for the down area😂
Are those mussels good to eat?? Because dang there are heaps of them there
Ah Danielle you told me you’d be here. I totally forgot and you didn’t tell me you arrived. I was hoping you’d be my guest here. Maybe next year.
Wrasse fish are plenty here. I don’t hunt them. Corvina is also plenty but harder to catch as you know. You can find them in shallow waters because it’s laying season at that time for them. Normally you wouldn’t be allowed to hunt for many fish species but because there is plenty corvina around there are no limits on corvina that I know of.
Legal limit was 3 for the corvina 👌
@@DanielMann there is always a quantity limit on all fish types you are right 👍
👍
Another excellent video, Dan!
What is Dave applying to his heel at 18:06? Is that due to pain caused by fins?
Vaseline, after 6 days with 150+ dives and loads of swimming they were beginning to rub on his heel.
@@DanielMann Gotcha! Cause I feel some pain in that area after some long hours in the water, but that might be due to me using plastic fins. Do you recommend carbon fins for shore dives?
Thanks!
For nearly 3 years I did nothing but shore dives in my DiveR innegra carbons in the U.K. Definitely no problem with them for that sort of diving.
@@DanielMann Fantastic, thanks mate!
Hey Daniel, I'm a huge fan from the Netherlands! I was wondering, does your mustache not give you any problems while diving? Over the last few years I started growing a small mustache and beard, and as a result I keep getting quite a lot of water in my nose... I saw some videos that said trying a different mask with a smaller lip part or shaving a thin part of the top of the mustache, but I was quite curious if you have any similar problems? Anyways keep up the great effort and content! ✌️
I often shave half of my top lip. Seems to work for me. Other times of my beard growth sometimes the mask does seal, just not for the first week after shaving. I think the hair has to lay flat or something.
@@DanielMann thanks for the fast reply! Will try this out next time for sure
Dan bro why didn't you share what Tunisian team did?
I can’t film every team all the time. I also didn’t have room to include Libya, Algeria, Denmark, Norway, Greece etc. No reason specifically, just time.
dani bunu bilerek türkçe yazıyorum bir türk olduğumu anla diye :) yani başka türk izleyicin var mı yok mu bilmiyorum :) erdeğe hoş geldin brom. seni uzun zamandır severek izliyorum. denizi seviyorum yüzmeyi seviyorum dalmayı seviyorum zıpkın seviyorum... en sevdiğim videon dogtooth tuna ve norveç videosu. seninle ingilizcemi geliştirdim öyle düşün. 6 yıl senin videolarını izleyerek nasıl çabuk geçti anlamadım. kendine iyi bak. buralardayım
Thank you for the kind words and being here for so many years Frank 🙏🏻
Noice 🔥🙌🏽🔥🙌🏽
Hey bro what the best sperfishing shop here in Australia Sydney
Not sure what is there these days but probably Adreno.
No dentex? Did I even watch a Daniel Mann video?
Luigi Puretti found one in a hole during scouting 🤣
Why is there no spearfishing footage
Busy competing
I wouldn’t distract myself wearing a camera in such a big competition. Already a lot of pressure so one less thing to deal with.
@@DanielMann right makes sense
Can I ask... what are the shades you're wearing?!! Sorry but I need a new pair of sunglasses 🤣
@@Jamieross00 best boat/driving sunglasses ever with the removable glare guard. Also polarised and very affordable. www.mokenvision.com/en/hawkins/419-464-hawkins-3760314192507.html#/259-color-sage
@@DanielMann thanks a lot!
Was wondering about the same thing!
I bought a pair of Oakley Clifden a few weeks ago. Same style as the ones Daniel is using. Pretty awesome on the water - especially if you have pollen allergy and don't want too much wind in you eyes.
Oh and one of the reasons I chose Oakley was that every pair of sunglasses I have ever owned has kept sliding down on my nose :D Clifdens have these "unobtanium" nosepads that stick to your nose when they get wet from sweat or sunscreen and it really works! I was actually so impressed that went out and bought a pair of Oakley Frogskins Range for civilian wear :)
why cant you film your diving in the comp is it prefrence or not allowed
I don’t want the distraction of having a camera on my head. Plus lots of the holes are very tight so it would be a hindrance!
I mean, do whatever you want to do, but i think spearfishing competitions are worst thing for the image of spearfishing.
It sounds like turkey cheated
Welcome to Algeria
Turkey cheating? Break out the Crayolas and color me shocked. Seriously, that doesn't surprise me. They love doing shady stuff. That's why it has become a mecca for yachtbuilding in Antalya. You can have a yacht being welded up by a guy that works for 3 or 4 different shipyards in the area. He gets paid a union wage at each shipyard but if he works for on e of the more prestigious yards like Turquoise or Damen, maybe Mengi Yay, then the cost passed on to the buyer is set at 110 an hour. Now if he works at another yard like Bering, Alia, Dunya or Numarine, he is doing the same job and his wage passed on is now 80 an hour. He however takes home 65 an hour no matter what yard because its a union negotiated salary. Carpenters and coaters usually work in house but they will hire outside for a big push, again the cost varies by shipyard but that worker is paid the same amount.
Still cheaper than an Italian yacht or definitely a Dutch or German yacht. Now they are opening yards in Georgia and Croatia. Cheaper labor still. Turkish yachts used to have a bad reputation for quality. Their firearms certainly do. Like their luxury watch clones. Look nice, function horrible. The yachts were the same. Then when money came in. It got better, but the corruption also got better. Not surprised they cheated, it just seems that like Chicago here in the USA, you should expect it.
U can never win against the turks 😂
They cheat at every opportunity 😂
Amazing experience anw 🙏🏼
When they are not cheating,they are complaining
İt's sad to see some racist comments about Turkish people.
Hello,
I was analyzing your CZcams channel. your you tube SEO score is zero.
It should be increased. and subscribers ,views , like, comments is very low according
to your channel age. This is why your you tube growth is very low and your channel
setup is also having many problems. If, you can solve this problems your channel will
grow and be famous very quickly.
Do you really have to pronounce your t’s so deliberately? It’s honestly pretty off-putting. Just chill 😂
Listen with subtitles on and no audio, problem solved 👌
