Does anyone else try to hold their breath while watching Aaron dive ?

[@jackhamilton6070]

Yes, and it proves I got a lot of work to do before heading down in December 😅

[@jamesschrader8193]

Yes I have!! But at sixty five years old and smoke I just use scuba tanks with the nitrox certification to stay up to 45 minutes. The key is stay on the surface till you locate shootable targets.:-)

[@stevekulchawick932]

All the time

[@stacyarmstrong9776]

yes he is crazy!!

[@kingstewie6789]

I’m up to just under 6 seconds 😂

[@pwill1248]

Very suspenseful when that shark came up on you😮😅

[@mickemike2148]

It's fantastic to see the abundance of life on these reefs!

[@tjake490]

Your spearfishing video's are my favorite, there just mesmerizing. Alway's watch from beginning to the end. Thanks

[@KeyWestWaterman]

really love to hear that!

[@charleshatcliff5588]

Totally enjoyed my morning dive sitting on my back porch sipping on some coffee. Be safe guys.

[@rogerheuckeroth7456]

Always enjoy these narrated dives. Thanks for sharing.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@kellystewart2977]

We do watch other Fishermen, and I am always telling them if you would brain and bleed your fish they would taste so much better and more humane. No one does fishing as good as YOU! 😊 Thanks for the respect you show for the fish, friends, family, and US!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

I try! thanks so much!

[@apollo9935]

Thanks for taking us on another great adventure! I'm gonna sit down and just enjoy seeing the ocean from your POV. Have a good one!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

thank you!

[@olapetersson9652]

❤️I will always miss you're wife and you're cooking!!🐟🐠

[@terrymayberry]

The wife and I enjoy all your content. Thanks for another good one.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

love to hear it!

[@MarkoMarjanovicc]

Spearfishing videos are my favourite 🙂👍🏻👏

[@AquaCavemon]

Damn dude, that's some awesome footage of the bottom and all the coral with all the fish... I love seeing that all natural lively bottom ...

[@nixfamilyadventures1921]

Once again, can’t get enough. I literally could watch 4 hours straight of mangrove spearfishing. Unfortunately I missed a $1,000 giveaway from 2 years ago where you had the hidden word and really wanted someone to win that deeply needed it. But man we love your stuff, as you know! You are living my dream life for my son and I! You are going to love it even more when y’all have your own! Full time single father life makes it difficult to get everything covered let alone even a sneak trip to the beach.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

really love to hear it! I'm doing my best to live my version of the dream and love to share it with others who are chasing it. I wish you nothing but the best!

[@edwinroberts4653]

Yea man, this is the stuff you got me hooked on few years back. My dad and I from marquesas to marathon. Great trip down memory lane. Your so blessed to have it at your finger tips. I know you know that. Your friend got great skills too!! Please let him know he is appreciated too. Thanks and God Bless.

[@kingstewie6789]

Awesome as usual ! I appreciate your respect for the fish and the water. You set a good example!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

🙏

[@sneadling]

back to the deep!! Thank you again for amazing videos!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

glad you enjoyed it!

[@francus7227]

No question, additions, or corrections. I'm only commenting before tapping the thumbs up 👍 button to feed the algorithm monsters.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

really appreciate it! 🙏

[@KeysMan-b5j]

Aaron you should do a PSA announcement about shallow water blackout. Many years ago a friend of mine lost his son out there. They were diving in 120 ft of water. At the bottom and the boy blacked out at 90 ft and they didn't have tanks to be able to reach him. Most people can't drive 50 ft. Much less The Depths that you dive. You make it look easy thank you always enjoy your videos

[@jjsager1]

Nice vid Aaron! Congrats James on your PB Grouper!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

glad you enjoyed it!

[@dedericklape237]

Another great adventure keep it up my friend and enjoy your meal for the week

[@KeyWestWaterman]

will do!

[@CarlosHeighes]

I have to say, after a year of spearfishing I see how absolutely amazing you are with your shot placement! I am looking forward to the day I can dive the depths you do too!

[@cameronvivian7341]

Awesome underwater videos.. ..I appreciate you and your channel!!

[@bradr9171]

Checked out the Docks while in the keys with the family. Thanks for the recommendation! Food was great!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

glad you enjoyed it!

[@mritolduso7355]

You are living the life my man, living the life indeed!

[@svenjaminfranklin471]

6.49 that fish swimming upside down is wild haha I dont think I've ever seen that before when hunting in caves here in Australia

[@scorporsupremacy7948]

These videos are just amazing to watch.

[@JTD1971]

How do you actually stay calm when you have sharks near you I know it’s the experience but man I was holding my breath for you. Love your videos even when it’s breathtaking

[@KeyWestWaterman]

Just comes with time i suppose!

[@freedomwanderer91]

Love the spearfishing videos.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

🙏

[@kenlassiter-km8sw]

I'm so jealous. Great video man!

[@justuschmiii3173]

What a dream come true...AWESOME USE SCUBA !!! TNX 4 VID LOL

[@juliafiore120]

Looked like a great day with James! Bummer no cooking; would love to see how you prepare your chowder vs New England Chowdah 😉

[@KeyWestWaterman]

haha next time!

[@bradjones9634]

So relaxing to watch. Not sure I can do that now. So awesome!

[@Gernfishin]

Beautiful video 🤙🏽💯 I always look forward to Mondays to watch your videos

[@kellystewart2977]

You sound like my husband and I, not sure what day it is. ❤ Retirement at it's best! 😂 Doesn't it feel good to have a little time on your hands to do what you want? Especially extra time with Madeline and friends.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

haha its the best feeling ever!

[@MareEgretsMoose]

Great shots on the groupers, both of them!

[@jamesnix862]

Well you had me tilting my head looking for fish. Thinking of my old days when I used to do this.

[@maryantosz6195]

Awesome video!! I like the long videos! Beautiful fish!!

[@mitchelllavalley3497]

Aaron that was epic good job bring home the groceries for the week 😋😋😋

[@kyleschoonover8013]

No question, just want to say I really enjoy all of your videos. ✌️

[@tmyzmym]

Does spearfishing impact jigging or casting fishing? By the way I enjoyed all your vids. No unnecessary stuffs. No unnecessary music. Simply beautiful.

[@Mrmadypossum]

These clips are my fav!!

[@kelseypel]

Ever consider wearing some kind of heart rate watch? Then displaying your heart rate somewhere on the screen? It would be so cool to watch your heart rate throughout your dives!

[@nje9560]

Love those Videos! I could watch a lot more spearfishing + narration videos from you!

[@diegoelcienfueguero7865]

Nice vid Aaron.👍

[@KeyWestWaterman]

glad you enjoyed it!

[@mohammadw373]

hell yea! good vibes and good living man!

[@pwrthief]

Love your content. We miss the keys. Lived in key largo for many years. Keep it up 👍🏻

[@TheSpearoHeroes]

Excellent video man! 🐟🐠🤿🔥💥🍣

[@TheRALPHIE0211]

Hey Aaron, dove some Mangrove islands today in Key West thanks to watching your channel over the years. Was very fun and thanks to your tips was able to get an 18 inch Mango and a couple between 14-16 for dinner. Definitely not an easy style of hunting (as you’ve said). Anyway, thanks for what you do. God bless

[@Dexplay]

Tuesday...Wednesday...what a time!!!

[@sager303]

these are my favorite kind of videos.

[@SeaHunterSpearfishing]

Another great trip, nice job boys!

[@dbtorreliob]

In the morning! Nice hat!

[@philippetersen7899]

Thank you for making these cool and beautiful videos! works as somekind of mindfulness. as a guy from Denmark its so cool to see how things is underwater in the US :) Thank you alot i always look forward for the next video!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

really love to hear it! thanks so much.

[@thegreg79]

James, my boy! Great video!

[@crestedcarvings]

Can't wait for our trip Labor Day week, staying in Marathon. Hoping to rent a 20' center console and head out to some snorkel spots. You are blessed to live down there!

[@rustbucket9318]

I really like watching the buddy dives. I know nothing about diving other than the obvious so it is cool to see how two experienced free divers work together. As for the little grunt that got caught up in the fray, it is still way less bycatch than a rod and reel creates. As a fellow outdoorsman I do understand not feeling good about collateral damage but I think everyone who isn’t vegan will understand it’s just an unfortunate part of hunting sometimes.

[@Bill3558]

Enjoyed the video. They are unique.

[@AAvsPOCKETQUEENS]

Very smart--within the first hour..Love it!! A few videos ago, that Blue marlin had a rope stuck to it .. and speared your Mahi mid-fight!!! Craziest thing I think I have seen offshore!! VIA your channel

[@patricktelgen4522]

Fantastic video as always, hope debby didn't muddy up the water too bad!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

we are gonna find out!

[@johnlane1611]

Really enjoy the experience you take us on

[@lewisspeed3041]

Great work,that was a fun video

[@teejay91b]

I love spear fishing. You can target a specific species and specific fish on the ledges. It beats feeding the damned sharks all day!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

amen to that!

[@spintter121805]

I wish I could have that kind of life. Stuck in Colorado and all I have is trout.

[@Rasputin-p4e]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂... Oh man.

[@gloriaross4265]

Amazing 💙 video thank you!!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

So glad you enjoyed it! thanks for watching! 🙏

[@mmcleod111]

That was awesome!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

glad you enjoyed it!

[@ghayes2135]

Good day!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

it was!

[@alanlaidler5746]

I would love to come to the keys and help ya fill ya freezer mate, brillant vid (as always) big love from the Uk 🇬🇧 🤘🏻🤘🏻👊🏻👊🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@KeyWestWaterman]

glad you enjoyed it! we almost never freeze fish, unless its something so big we can't eat it all, or on a trip for species we can't find here. like to enjoy it fresh! Appreciate the love!

[@OceanOstteen-ky2gv]

Aaron, believe it or not, those Spade Fish are fabulous eating, Very moist, great for frying whole

[@rogerheuckeroth7456]

I shot one once. Not much meat on them, but they are nice white mild fish.

[@lori007]

Really love your channel ❤

[@donaldtouchton9523]

Love it👊🏻👊🏻

[@rigohernandez8930]

If you made a spearfishing class video series that would be awesome. I’ve only spearfished several times and would love to learn from the best!

[@TheDadFaxs]

I've been around here so long I remember watching that episode. That you had to go and get the scuba tanks for. When you first posted that video. Lol does that make me an OG lol

[@Christian_Tango_Christ]

A number of my Mangrove Snapper have already returned from the spawn! They usually leave in early-mid July and return September and October. This year some were only gone 3 weeks. So weird 😕

[@KeyWestWaterman]

who knows!

[@TheJackalUSA]

That black is been checking you out since you first dropped along the ledge 😂.nice video bud

[@Lownslow84]

Awesome day!

[@timothymccabe8159]

Another great video

[@zylomorph]

That was cool to watch... Damn...

[@braydenwilliams4478]

Every time I see a video posted I click on it. No matter what I’m doing. Love the content. Hope all is well with you and the family! What is your favorite thing to spear and why

[@KeyWestWaterman]

really love to hear that! and I don't think I could pick just one. each fish has something special about the hunt. But wahoo black grouper and AP are some of my favorites.

[@sethpartin1422]

assuming you're out on the Atlantic side down there in the lower keys, idk if its only for me but it seems very difficult to find reefs and areas to spear that don't come up as protected on our maps. was wondering if you had any tips you could give on finding spearable reefs down in the lower keys

[@victorpalazzolo4722]

Yes please give us some insight. I’m dealing with the same issue

[@ryangspearing]

that snook chillin on the reef under a ledge

[@dougkelly5459]

Super good video😊

[@markespich8574]

Thank you for thanking me.

[@billclark1011]

Great video. very relaxing to watch! Interesting that there was not one lobster.

[@Almenspearfishingll]

Nice spot bro watching from QUEZON PALAWAN Philippines

[@josephderer9393]

Got my Key Largo stone crab claws awesome...

[@Nick-mg5bj]

Hey Capt. When you were searching for the black under the ledge, just before 7 minutes, what kind of fish is that that looks like he's swimming upside down?

[@KeyWestWaterman]

squirrel fish I believe

[@Nick-mg5bj]

Crazy to me. Been in the water my whole life & never seen a species like that upside down not in panic mode

[@manolilagos8912]

Can you did a video showing you with gear on, would be really helpful to see where you stash your knife, light, stringer etc 🙏🏼

[@igobygio]

2nd light is firing today once that wind turned offshore🤙🏽

[@deusvolt5688]

Damn, i tried so hard to be first. ! Keep it up Aaron, my family looks forward to Mondays every week!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

haha thanks for tuning in!

[@chris6054]

Idk how I missed this upload, but woot woot! That was a nice grouper, but damn I felt bad for him too with that shot placement! I need some advice if you end up seeing this, I have a 40+ mile charter planned out of Ponce Inlet for next week and I've never truly been 'offshore'...any tips man?

[@stacyarmstrong9776]

love your vides

[@KeyWestWaterman]

really love to hear it!

[@stacyarmstrong9776]

@@KeyWestWaterman you responded!!!!!

[@size-matters]

I’m surprised there weren’t more lobster on those beautiful ledges.

[@coyroberts8356]

Thanks 😊

[@joshhunnewell7349]

Can you do a video on how you came about buying your contender and how you went about financing it? I really want a bigger boat but I don’t have $150,000 to just toss in on it. How do you get started buying a boat like that?

[@KeyWestWaterman]

I bought mine before contenders were "cool", and the covid boat market doubled in price. paid 65k for it with brand new motors. I financed the entire thing even the tax and title. interest rates weren't as bad either. and worked my bottom off to make the payments. thats about it.

[@amenditman]

Thanks for posting your videos. They are one of my go to chill and watch streams. How did you weather TS Debbie? We had a lot of rain and some wind inland of Tampa.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

glad you enjoyed it! and no idea I've been in Alaska.

[@amenditman]

@@KeyWestWaterman Hope all is well when you get home.

[@jadedouglas3142]

In Bermuda our minimum keeper size is 37 inches, it always sounds strange to me when you talk about a really big black and its only just over 20 pounds. Around thirty pounds is as small as we catch them here we can harvest one per boat per day year round and usually get fifty plus pounds regularly, catch at least ninety to one hundred pounder yearly.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

yea I hear yall get monsters, just a different fishery. its fairly rare to see someone come in with one over 50 lbs here. especially Freedive.

[@jrod_813_8]

So next snook video i guess just go to the reef? That was a stud up under the rock

[@ajromer4682]

Make a trip to content keys! I’d love to see it from your perspective

[@RikkiTikkiTavi290]

Nice
