The soon-to-be mother, who swam in college, has only been freediving polespear fishing for a couple of years.
“It was crazy, that’s not how I anticipated my day starting, but what an adventure,” Augustine said.while freediving.
D’Agostino had moved the boat to Joe’s Bayou in advance of Hurricane Ian, but on his way back he saw a school of fish that looked like it had some sizeable fish in it. When he pulled up to the marina to pick up Augustine, he told her to grab the polespear.“I said ... ‘Yes, I do,’ and that’s what happened,” Augustine said.
The polespear doesn’t shoot with a trigger, Augustine explained. She said it uses the force generated by the release of the polespear.Augustine was freediving and down under about 45 seconds or so. After she landed the fish, they brought it down to the Destin Fishing Rodeo to get an official weight on the fish for certification. Weighmaster Bruce Cheves called it 37.8 pounds.
