019: Bowhunting, Spearing & Free Diving | Live with Captain Lex O'Connor
Show Notes

Today's yarn we are live in the studio with a true water man and outdoor adventurer, Lex O'Connor. Lex has spent most of his life in the outdoors including years on the water.

Lex is a Master 4 Skipper, Free Dive Instructor, Avid Spearo and Bowhunter with years of experience out on the water learning all about ocean and weather conditions first hand. He has travelled extensively with his roles in the commercial boating industry and has  experienced amazing situations along the way.

We yarn about his early childhood growing up in Far North Queensland on fruit farms, discover how he became a commercial vessel captain, share stories of his close calls whilst spearing and discuss the cross over into bowhunting and harvesting our own food sources.

It was an absolute privilege sitting down with Lex for this yarn, he is one of the kindest blokes you will ever come across.

This is his story.
