Hey man, I gotta say I really did like the video's but Bro is right I'm afraid those fish are a little small to show on an international forum like this.
The thing is people do not know where you are from and what type of fishing your area is like. Even is the fish you shot were good size for you area they are tiny in other area's so generally we try not to post pics or vids unless they are of a fairly decent size.
I'm sure you understand
But like I say, welcome to the forum, I really enjoyed the vids and the music and I hope that more on the forums start taking video's of their dives
Greigsy - No need for me to add to any of the above friendly advice but I feel I have to.As a Scottish Spearo it's pretty concerning to see this.
OK - It looks like you're eating the fish and that's fine but Spearing in many parts of Scotland is not well regarded as it is and this sort of footage is a very poor reflection of the sport to outside eyes. Ironically you were fishing in an area that holds some of the largest Pollock you could hope to encounter in the UK!
Also its good safety practice to remove your snorkel from your mouth when diving.
None of us are saying we've never shot an undersized fish accidentally but it's not something to be proud of or deliberately target them.
It would be very cool if you could take the vids off YouTube

I'll second that. If you could also remove the one on Vimeo of you shooting a beautiful little 6 inch lumpsucker, that would be great champ.
We don't people thinking that all spearo's do things like that.
Still up ! nice vid shame about fish possibly being small n gettin out with loaded gun could of been having a rest on a reef tho .great vis .
Still on YouTube - and one of them is giving me grief for suggesting they're shooting juvenile fish now.

Ah I saw this video a few days ago and was a little shocked at the minute coalie proudly displayed alongside the passable pollock.
At this time of year you will find some of the largest pollock come in shore to breed, now is your chance to take something worth being proud of instead of those tiny fry!
To reiterate, please remove it from YouTube.
