Tanks of The Oceans - My Frist Giant Puget Sound King Crab While Spearfishing

[@PNWSamson]

Awesome video! Great message too. I appreciate the shout out, that was a trick I learned from my Newfie step grandfather. Works like a charm!

Thanks Chris! I should have put a cutting board underneath though haha the wooden counter top didn't like it that much

Love your videos. Harvesting wild is always about learning. You are correct with your Prawn idea, but you also see that they arent quite the same. It is adout sustainability. Prawns are different..

[@WildWaterWomanLisa]

Absolutely! Appreciate the feedback and happy diving

I hope I will find many more just to look at them! Amazing creatures!

Isn’t it maybe not a good idea to hunt a male Lingcod that’s guarding a nest?..the eggs would be left defenseless.

[@WildWaterWomanLisa]

Hi Julia! You are right and it is not even allowed to hunt any Lingcod in winter in BC for exactly that reason. I am looking for them because I have never seen a Lingcod guarding an egg mass and I would love to see that up close. As you can see in the video I haven't had my speargun loaded for the whole trip. I just had it with me incase I would see anything that is currently open to hunting but we had so much luck with the crabs that I didn't feel the need to use my speargun. I enjoy just looking at what the ocean has to offer more than spearfishing and if I spearfish I always try to act as responsible as possible!
