Spearfishing the Wreck of the "Dixie Arrow" off of Ocracoke, NC 7/8/23

[@theproudsoutherner587]

One of the best spearfishing/ dive videos I've seen yet! Looked like a picture perfect dive. Well done 👏, the amount of species and life on that wreck is incredible.

[@ЧерновРоман]

😂 11:25 это просто шедевр 👍 Я зашёл посмотреть видео подводной охоты... насладиться умиротворением и спокойствием моря. Так и было 😊 смотрю и наслаждаюсь и представляю себя под водой... до 11:25 😂😂😂 я даже сам испугался... потом долго смеялся когда началась борьба за еду 😂 "...это моя еда" 😂. Это шедевр 👍

[@xyz450]

Какой шедевр, блин ??? Бестолковый мужик отогнал огромную и очень дорогую рыбу, и стрелял мелких и не слишком дорогих рыб... Смотрю и сердце кровью обливается от его глупости.

Just discovers your channel and I’m really enjoying your dive videos. Thanks

[@Tyler_Whisner]

I’ve just started putting up some videos but I’m definitely going to continue uploading when I have good footage! Thanks for watching

[@scottdavis7485]

Awesome dive and video. I kept thinking, "When is he gonna shoot one of those big sheepshead?!" When you turned at the end, I knew that big guy was done for. Such a great environment, great vis, and absolutely every kind of fish you might want to see (or spear). I would love to dive this site.

[@Tyler_Whisner]

It was an unbelievable dive. Current makes it challenging to dive.

[@hontxn4636]

Great video thanks for taking us along. Outstanding viz! Haven't done that one yet. Kinda brave (or crazy) diving alone though. Nice bag of groceries!

[@Tyler_Whisner]

It was one of my top dives for sure! I don’t mind diving alone. I carry a redundant air supply when I do a full dive completely alone.

Multiple Cuban Hogfish (red yellow and white ornamental). I have never seen one out there.

I noticed several Spanish hogfish but have never heard of a Cuban. I’ll have to look back through the video and see if I can find one

What species of Grouper are down there? I recognize the Goliath but have trouble separating Black, Gag and Scamp.

[@Tyler_Whisner]

It was all gags as far as I remember. Besides the Goliath of course

96 was the max depth on my computer. Glad you liked it!

[@obadaabualhiga2204]

That was funny when you find the big fish behind you 😂 , by the way , why scuba divers never spear that big ones ? It's a grouper no ?

[@thony1215]

Wow good job idol and be safe

[@cantaloros]

Is it legal in your country to fish with oxygen cylinders? It doesn't seem fair and can be very harmful to wildlife.

[@Tyler_Whisner]

Perfectly legal here in the USA. We have legal limits to what we can take and I never take more than I can eat. Most fish are afraid of the bubbles so it is still a challenge to shoot some species. Thanks for your comment.

[@latorrearturo1]

Se sono tutti come lui a pescare allora i pesci possono stare sereni... e poi qui è legale pescare con le bombole stai sereno..

Why not shoting big grouper in 11:25. ?

[@Tyler_Whisner]

It’s a Goliath grouper. Not legal to harvest in my area

[@bigdadgo]

That goliath grouper wanted a free handout!

[@Tyler_Whisner]

Yes sir he did. First one I’ve ever seen in NC.

[@chadstudio1323]

Very deep for fishing kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3nSfoqDf9qab80

[@AlexSBedini]

@@Tyler_Whisner is it forbidden to shoot a goliath? I am sure if you were a little smaller he would have eaten you alive!

[@Tyler_Whisner]

@@AlexSBedini yes it is! He was definitely hungry

[@RhettsRides]

Do you ever spearfish without air?

[@Tyler_Whisner]

Yes I do. I’m not to the level of spearfishing these 100+ ft wrecks without air though.

[@RhettsRides]

@@Tyler_Whisner Fair enough, still much more sustainable and selective than other fishing methods. You should do a video where you clean up invasives since you aren’t on a breath hold 🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@Tyler_Whisner]

@@RhettsRides did you watch the video? Shot a lion fish. I’m not sure there are more than 10 people on this world that could free dive this wreck and shoot a fish. 100ft with an unreal current. Most folks won’t scuba dive it with a strong current. Let alone dive it alone. It has its own set of challenges. Have you ever dove the outer banks of NC?

[@RhettsRides]

@@Tyler_Whisner Yeah that was a massive lion fish. Love to keep them off the wrecks. Are lions the only invasive you have in NC? And no never dove OBX. Moving to NC for nursing school this January so hoping to do some diving in my free time. I have surfed OBX tho and I know the current is like a river.

[@Tyler_Whisner]

@@RhettsRides the only thing edible one I know of. The best free diving is going to be around Wilmington. Closest to the Caribbean you will find. Anything north is going to be dirtier water and more current. Also much better selection of fish in shallow water down there. Good spearfishing my way starts at 80ft generally. There are some exceptions. Where will you be going to school?

Me too! I normally don’t go through the trouble of shooting them with a spear gun but that one was worth it.

I see your video again, the only thing I don’t like is you are along down there, I know my brother S… Happen, I did that in Cuba . Remember, not fish is more value than your life , I make my living in Cuba with spearfishing free river and with tanks too, and thanks to my friend I am alive now, so be careful .

[@xSeadoggerx]

You don’t know how to use a compass from your anchor, 20 feet over to that wreck in that clear of water ??? Lol

[@Tyler_Whisner]

First of all, vis was probably 100’+ so obviously more than 20 to the wreck. Second of all, of coarse I know how to use a compass. I probably dive more in a week than a keyboard warrior such as yourself dives in a few years. Third of all, sounds like you don’t know how to use a wreck reel. Obviously it is the more sure fire option to make sure I can find the anchor. I generally don’t give stupid comments like yours the time of day but that one was too good to pass up. I can get you in a refresher course. Sounds like you need it 😂

[@xSeadoggerx]

@@Tyler_Whisner That’s pretty funny. I’ve got over 5000 hours spearing. Enjoyed your response though.
