Night Diving for Lobsters | SpearChef

Kimi Werner goes to the Big Island for a friend's celebration of life and also gets in a night dive with her friend Justin Lee and Captain Asa. It's lobster season in Hawaii and by law you need to grab them by hand, so it's much more productive to go at night when the lobsters are out and about. Though there's no limit, Kimi and Justin set their own personal bag limit and set off to fill it. By morning, Kimi is tired and worn out, but the the sun comes up just in time to end the adventure with Kona crabbing and spearfishing! Lobster Benedict, raw crab poke and a seafood stew are all some of the culinary experiences shared by these friends as they say goodbye to their fellow diver, Mike Hong by spreading his ashes.

Thanks everyone for the love ❤

[@adamyoung480]

Aloha. Happy for another great episode, sad it’s the last of the series. Will keep an eye out for whenever you pop up again. Miss my night diving nights, but they were some of my best memories of Lanai.

[@Keith_White]

Every time I watch a SpearChef episode I wonder if your toenails have grown back. Sorry to hear about the loss of your friend.

[@kimiwerner]

@@Keith_White every time they grow back, I do something dumb and lose another one!

[@johnfirebaugh7915]

Glorious. Many tears of joy, even the Lobster Benedict with Hollandaise.

[@zackbow8225]

Your videos are the absolute best

[@johndyer9232]

That’s going to mean a lot to those kids when they are teaching their kids to hunt and fish. Good for you guys getting them outdoors.

[@tylerwhite8429]

Love Kimi, what a great addition to the MeatEater family!

[@outlawpat8038]

The best

[@Dornosliw]

This series is addicting, scratching so many itches: aloha, community, conservation, FAMILY, and fun! WTG Meat Eater crew you incorporated like minded value-based hunters and its such a natural fit. I hope you’re paying the kids a salary to support their future endeavors.

[@danartriatmojo]

Everything about this video it's just warming. All the crew, the video shooter, the editor, Kimi's story telling trough the narration 👌🏽✨. "Nothing goes to waste in the ocean..."

[@Bojangles6]

Haven't watched it yet, just have to give the producers props for picking up Kimi. She's a great personality.

[@mac.swanson]

The music in this series is top notch. Kudos to whoever put it together!

[@Ror917]

I'm addicted in watching Kims videos, truly amazing and down to earth, love it keep it up

[@jgbiggy]

Kimi Werner is a great addition to Meateater. I love all her videos.

[@biage8039]

Makes me emotional to see the respect and reflection that goes into these dive videos. Thank you

[@kevinminor104]

Nothing short of beautiful. Kimi can sure tell a story better than anyone else. It was also good to see Buddy and Justin.

[@rediron44]

I'm really liking this content here. And Kimmy is a bad ass. Smart, tough, and speaks well on camera. Great host

[@fishduckdog]

I always brought with candy, for those moments that I need the kids to be quiet.. lol. Great to see people brining their kids with to enjoy and learn the way.

[@JuanitaColorado]

Thank you for sharing such a vulnerable and special moment with us. It was extremely moving to see your friend join the ocean one last time. This is, by far, the best series on MeatEater. I hope that we get more after this initial episode set.

[@tigersbaseball1989]

What are great, heartfelt episode! Much love to Kimi and the guys! ❤️

[@shedonleemf]

two of my favorite divers in 1 video, what more could I ask for

[@jamesosborne5950]

[@jaimecamacho6318]

[@GCC808]

Kimi No Ka ‘Oi !!!! Cannot wait for more spear chef episodes!!! Kimi, you make everyone from Hawaii so proud!!! 🤙🏽❤️

[@Bsalty1975]

I truly love watching you dive, prepare delicious meals and your aloha spirit! You truly make my day's better thank you for being a teacher Kimi! 🤙

[@jakewes6642]

I could have watched a season of trying to hunt with toddlers. I'm missing mine as I'm here at Fort Irwin's NTC for 2 months. Those kids will remember that forever.

[@stevedesantolo6794]

It is no wonder this series does so well. What a great crew! I thought I was the only one that got the stink eye for being so awake for "all hours" adventures! Mahalo!

[@jasonsuch86]

As a guy who hunts white-tail deer, this is like my favorite thing to watch

[@djbaker4441]

Buddy's pig calls are Awesome!

[@rootsrock6652]

Sorry for your loss Kimi and thanks for sharing. Much Aroha from Aotearoa-New Zealand

[@hotdoggravy]

Watching you guys from the well lit safety of my couch, I still get anxious, no way I could do that in the dark

[@howeda24801]

Love your perspective and especially your cooking Kimi! I enjoy every episode and you make me want to take the family to Hawaii asap. As a lifelong competitive swimmer and one who loves the water as well as one who is addicted to hunting, youve caught my eye and now I am trying to find some way to find the opportunity to experiment with spearfishing!

[@joefernandes7577]

I would love to watch buddy and his friends following the tradition

[@kimberlyfuller2414]

This is so good. It’s so refreshing to see you as a makuahine providing for her family in this connected way. Thank you.

[@doctorkayak]

The end of this story flooded my eyes. I lost my father two years ago. Early this morning I dreamt of my father. In my dream he was in the nursing home. He was happy and lucid and fawning over a friend who came to visit him. He fetched a tea cart for her and he was so happy. Suddenly I woke up and I smiled and I loved the brief moment I got to spend with him in my dream.

[@howlinwolf9448]

One of the best videos I’ve ever seen on Ohana and friendships. Thank you for all the hard work and hours you guys put in to shoot and edit it. You created feeling. Thank you again.

[@coll0070]

Greetings from Australia. Thankyou for your efforts and upload.

[@alleybuilds5370]

Props to the camera guy! always getting the shots under water.

[@jstang87]

Love this new series. Kimi is a badass.

[@rogerwhite6714]

You are the Steve of the water enjoyed the episode with your parents much love to y’all

[@thetroyjacobson]

I lived in Hawaii for 7 years, was sent there to manage a construction project and ended up being contracted to manage 2 more, then hired by a local company to stay. Was on Kauai for 2 years and Oahu for 5 years. I gained so much respect for the local culture and morals they adhere to in there personal efforts of conservation. My buddy on Kauai “Ben”, is like the mayor of Kauai, lol. And the best hog hunter in the islands. Kimi is a unexpected but awesome addition to Meateater!!!

[@deannwia]

Love seeing Kimi's friends and family! I think the thing that makes SpearChef so different and so real is this view into Kimi's life and the emotions and obvious love for each other that comes through each episode. I always look forward to seeing the next episode - Mahalo!

[@bionicsjw]

I remember doing a Manta Ra dive off of Kona in 97, which was not only one of the best dives I ever did but was also one of the easiest. Just after we got in i saw the crew from the dive shop, that I went to get a new mask at heading out for lobster. I was so jealous.

[@deeno313bababa]

A lot of fun I have to make my way to one of the islands someday. 🤙🏽

[@andredouglas8012]
