I Shouldn't Have Shot This Yellowtail... | Baja Spearfishing

This video is for new spearos/spearas who venture out into the world of shooting larger yellowtail. This by no means is a MONSTER yellowtail, I know seasoned spearos shoot 50-90 pounders, however, this was my experience shooting one over 30 pounds. There were a lot of lessons learned here that I want to share with newer divers.

6:29 - Weighing the Yellowtail

This was shot back in 2019 and I've learned a lot about safety since then.

Safety Recommendations:
Dive close to a partner if you're going for big fish
Use a float and floatline
Use the right size gear for what you're targeting
Don't rush things
Use situational awareness
