Spearfishing Giant Bluefin Tuna With a Super Bowl Champion
Big Water Guy has been chasing a giant bluefin tuna with a speargun for years, by his own account, and this week the hunt finally got its long video. "Spearfishing Giant Bluefin Tuna With a Super Bowl Champion" is billed in the description as a team-up with "some serious legends" to make that dream possible. The title promises the champion; the description does not say which one, so the name is left for viewers to find out on the boat.
Around it, the Washington-based catch, cook and dive channel posted a steady stream of Shorts that read like chapters of the same trip: "Shooting my dream fish!", a guessing game over what the tuna is worth, and a cooking Short promising "SO MUCH meat in one leg." The busiest of the week's uploads is the oldest one, "This blew my socks off," a tasting Short that has passed 300,000 views. Its comments turned into a small cooking debate over how done a good piece of tuna should be, with one viewer comparing the host's protests at the grill to Gollum and another pointing out that a man who eats everything was worried he might not like it. A few also spotted that the trip seems to have gone through Türkiye.
Right now the bluefin video and "We got fish at home 😐" are the two pulling hardest, both only two days old. The whole channel ran a little above its usual daily pace, gaining about 4,000 subscribers and close to four million views over the week, the most views of any channel in its corner of outdoor and fishing creators. 402_Outdoors also had a lively week, while Linnea & Akela and Kayli King ran quieter than usual.
