We were the boat anchored up off the western end of the small island. Cool to see the video!

[@Gizzyhunter]

Hey oli great vid. Next time you shoot a butterfish look on their tongue, 9 times out of 10 they have some sort of parasite living on it

[@adrianorr1376]

Boom!! Gonna be a good night watching this. Thanks Ollie, keep safe brother.

[@michaelmercer2440]

Heck Ollie your a brave man beating down the winter cold to get a yum feed. Good on you buddy. And thanks I enjoyed another great video. Cheers stay safe. Bless

[@dynastystryk3r88]

Definitely enjoyed the last 30 mins of my life 👌🏻 I’m glad I get to enjoy your passion as well

[@peanutmack]

Love your vids Ollie. Appreciate the cooking segments too

Awesome eating habits Ollie. Catching a range of species and promoting sustainable catch practices. ✊✊

[@olliecraig-primalpursuit]

Thanks mate

[@iroamzad]

Another quality vid, keeping it real showing you can still get an awesome feed without bagging a big snapper and leaving the potentially undersized crays for another day. And then throw in some Ollie's kitchen rules for some great content. Keep it up Ollie. Cheers

[@beardedmafiaspearfishing]

Living vicariously though you today!!! Great post!

[@robbanks972]

Another awesome vlog Ollie, mouth watering fish salad and burgers were next level. Churr Bro 😎

[@nfragala]

Welcome to my world, Ollie... On the North Shore of MA the vis is 3-5m on a good day. Need a dif skillset when diving in the murk, but if you can overcome the challenges, you can dive anywhere.

[@knowitall4734]

You're an awesome shot!!

[@grahampaniora6072]

[@earthandoceanfit4357]

Great vid mate. The food looks epic too! 🤙

[@mattbeukes2527]

Very cool video mate. We get a lot of smaller jacks in South Africa, they also make good sashimi, I'm going to give one or 2 of those a try in a raw fish salad. Also have to try the mayo and bread crumb fried fish recipe.

[@martingoodef811]

Just for a little bite to the fish salad, I would suggest a teaspoon of chilly powder, you will be pleasantly surprised. 1 teaspoon for that amount you made. Thanks mate,another lovely clear water dive and great cookup.

[@iamnotmental]

i think that's why he had the "jalapeno" chips for the spice.

[@jimbojet8728]

Well done. A good vid. Thank you.

[@olliecraig-primalpursuit]

Cheers!

[@DOM_HA_7BETPAX]

С удовольствием смотрю ваши видео-сюжеты. Мне нравится что вас больше интересуют ракурсы съёмки видо-камеры, мелкие стаи рыб на красивом фоне под водой. Я - рыбак. Мне также интересен результат подводной охоты. Но это я много раз могу посмотреть на других каналах. Благодарю за необычный и красивый видео-сюжет. Остаюсь вашим подписчиком. Получаю удовольствие. Привет из Украины.

[@vilniusonfire]

Love it ❤

[@ЛарисаГвозденко-з6щ]

Interesting, relaxing, awesome vid. Well done, Ollie 🌊👍🐠

[@zeocen]

That parasite is actually their tongue! They crawl into their mouths, eat their tongues and then attach to them as a fake tongue so they both have a feed whenever the fish eats. When you kill them they unlatch themselves and climb out haha. It's the same for Aji/Jack Mackerel etc too. Though I didn't expect to see them with them all the way out there! Thanks for the beautiful vid too, such awesome scenery.

[@olliecraig-primalpursuit]

Very interesting cheers!

[@craigmills7280]

It looked so wrong having a fishing rod in your boat lol.. really love how not only do you show your audience amazing views, but really really appreciate when you describe how you are hunting over ledges and talk us through it as when I put your ideas into practice my kills have 100% gone up.. Also love the showing of filleting, receipes etc as well.. thanks 110%

[@olliecraig-primalpursuit]

Haha yeah it felt a bit wrong! Thanks Craig, always good to hear people getting something from the videos

[@Alberthoward3right9up]

We call them live sea live and often find them in the mouth of Trev's and Jack or green Mackerel or koeheru as you call them

Ollie, I love your vids man, great stuff. You mentioned you didn't view the satellite imagery to get a gauge of the vis. I'm intrigued: how does satellite imagery give you info on the vis?

So beutiful that place

You can often tell from the water colour how cold it will be and that looks cold as!!

I think I have the same airfryer. Surprisised you didn't put the fish in there also.

[@twizzler3b]

Hey Ollie, where do you like to check satellite images for visibility. I haven't come across a site with frequent updates and good resolution in my area (Phuket, Thailand). Thanks for any tips. Love your channel, my favorite spearfishing channel.

[@nfragala]

How do you keep, prep, and store the fish you don't eat that day? I'm still trying to eat everything I catch the day of or the day after because I find preparing and storing the fish to be a pain.

[@markloper6951]

Another good video mate, can you tell us which part of the country you are in when you do your videos. The places look great and I’m keen to know where you are so I can travel there too. Cheers mate keep up the good work.

[@neilrobins3329]

Great stuff! Quick question what Anker ⚓ system do you use on your kayak and bout. Making sure it's still there when your surface from a dive.

[@MilanPotterSmith]

What satellite imagery do you use ?

[@lukegriffiths9952]

What’s the sight you use to get an idea of the viz?

[@Desntroy]

Thumbs up. Often in your vids you’ll nail a big snapper and it’s hard to pick out on the go pro- does the footage make it difficult to see, or are you ace at picking out snapper at a distance? Also, point for the burger presentation- looked epic- you ought to hit Pam’s up for a sponsorship too!

[@torreyance2468]

beautiful I would like to camp there or little shed/house.

[@n00dle1337]

Awesome video Ollie! I'm from Melbourne, just got my spearfishing gear a few weeks ago and weather has been absolute crap here on weekends.... Cant wait to hear out! You mentioned to have a look at satelite imagery before heading out to sus out the vis, do you mind sharing what website / app you use? Cheers mate!

Shouldn't be an issue in winter. They generally head deeper
