Pending World Record Dogtooth Tuna

Pending World Record Dogtooth Tuna

243 lb Dogtooth Tuna Pending World Record Cameron Kirkconnell and big dog with Riffe Metal Tech Mach 5 Speargun I am beyond words on this fish. It is bigger than any Dogtooth I thought would ever exist and I’m so stoked to have been able to be able to get a good shot on him and put him in the boat. The fish was so big that despite having the chance for a head shot on him I changed my aim and shot him in the same place as the last...

1000lb Tuna Speared

1000lb Tuna Speared

1000+lb Bluefin tuna I’ve been biting my tongue for the past few weeks waiting for a reply from Philippe Virgili for a full explanation of his “An over 1000lb Tuna capture” that he has put on every website that has the word spearfishing in it the world round. To catch you up on this if you haven’t heard, a few weeks/months ago P.V. speared a gigantic Bluefin tuna off the coast of Nova Scotia “150-170 miles...

Spearfishing and freedive conditioning/training

This month I’m in Singapore and there is no chance of hitting the water be it a pool, lake or the ocean. Because of my work I’m on call 24 hours a day and its the equivalent of fasting not being able to hit the water. For that month or however long you are out of the water, it is really important to me to stay in shape so that I don’t miss a beat and can keep up, and swim harder and longer then the guys we enviously watch...

Hotties in the Bahamas Part II: How To

Hotties in the Bahamas Part II: How To

The last thing many an unlucky Hogfish may see in the Bahamas if you take Lisa with you. No wonder they are fooled in to letting her get so close. Tiger Grouper in a typical hiding spot Don’t trust her. She’s good with kids, smiles a lot, and looks good in a bathing suit. She also happens to be a determined underwater hunter and doesn’t take it very well on the odd occasion that a fish eludes her. Over the course of the...

Friends part I

Friends part I

Cameron and Brad Thornbrough. Brad and I met in Australia and have been diving together ever since. He is great with the camera and can hold his breath longer then should be humanly possible and isn't afraid to ask for 3 weeks off of work. (something most of my friends curse me for even trying to get them to do). He spends heaps of time in the Bahamas shooting 50 lb Groupers with a Hawaiian Sling from his stand up paddle board to...

What it feels like to shoot your friend to save his life

What it feels like to shoot your friend to save his life

STEVE BENNET’s story I want to start this email off by giving God all the glory right now, the fact that I’m even around right now is nothing short of a miracle. Without Cameron Kirkconnell’s quick thinking and actions, I’m sure I’d be laying in 180ft of water off the west coast of Florida. This is my account of the incident, and much of it will overlap with Cam’s which I will include at the end of this...

Monster Wahoo Spearfishing 119lbs!

Monster Wahoo Spearfishing 119lbs!

119lb Wahoo When I was a kid I heard about people shooting Wahoo and Tuna and I could never fathom how it could even be possible. When fishing, I can only remember hooking them and the line peeling off the reel faster than anything we ever hooked. In every magazine all you hear is how fast they are and these blistering runs so how could it be possible to ever chase one down and put a spear into it!?!? I think I shot my first one when I was...
