85.5 lb Cubera Spearfishing - Iron Reef Diving - Louisiana

This is the video of my dive to retrieve my 85.5# Cubera snapper. After I shot him, he towed me to the bottom of the rig at 205 ft where I was able to tie him off on the last pipe. On the second dive, I shot him again, untangled and cut my original cable out, and eased him up to the surface. Easily one of the most powerful fish in the ocean, very tough to land!

Sometimes a head shot just misses the brain and its a pain when the big fish run. Ever thought of a 223/5.56mm power head for big fish and sharks? I have one but never used it much always just brain shot fish. once one has had thousands of spear shots it gets to be second nature and easy to do. I spent years shooting small water logged leaves under water as they sunk down for practice. Nice video and fish also nice rig I am glad divers now use the cables, D rings and floating ropes back 30-40 years ago it was not common. I also attached a small block of wood with duct tape near the spear guns end then a pelican light. used it to look into reef holes. That way the spear gun was not damaged by tape and I would smooth it down over the rail for the spear. In open water we ran 300 ft floating nylon rope and a float or several so large fish in open areas could not pull us under. You could get pulled along for a good half hour while you waited for the boat to catch up and the fish to get tired.

No. I started a club when I was at LSU but I graduated and it's no longer operating. I just teach scuba right now in New Orleans but I'm going to do a lot more rodeos next year than I have in the past.

Ha yeah I probably could have. Somehow my second shot in the head didn't kill him. It still had a couple hard runs left in him so I didn't want to risk getting tangled up. He had 2 shafts and about 20 feet of cable hanging out his head plus there's a lot of cable and net hanging off that rig!
