Commercially licensed, fully insured, and guiding Hawai‘i’s waters for 15+ years. This is our profession, not a side hustle.
We target invasive fish that damage Hawai‘i’s reefs — like the roi — and leave the species that help them thrive. Every dive is reef restoration.
Pioneers of the world-class intro to spearfishing since 2009. Perfect 5-star ratings across every platform we’re on.
Most of our guests have never held a speargun before the morning briefing. They walk out of the water as hunters — with the fish story to prove it.

Jeremy took his first breath-hold dive in the cold Pacific Northwest in 1993 and never stopped. After years refining his craft on O‘ahu’s North Shore, he founded Top Shot Spearfishing in 2009 and built the format that’s become the world’s most successful introduction to spearfishing.
30+ years in the water. 15+ years guiding. Committed to safety, excellence, and making sure you leave with a story.

Bamm grew up in Washington and spent ten years in finance before deciding the desk life wasn’t it — he walked away to live more sustainably and more connected. His first guiding chapter was leading blacktail deer hunts on Kodiak Island, Alaska, where he came to an important realization: there were no women and no aloha in the bush. So he moved to the Big Island to grow a garden and connect with the ocean. He’s been guiding the Kona coastline for eight years since.
Big personality, bigger aloha. If Bamm is your guide, you’ll hear the stories yourself.

Bam with Top Shot was amazing!! My husband and I live in South Florida so we freedive a lot and spearfish at home but wanted a local to show us the ropes. He was extremely informative and a blast! He even gave us awesome recommendations for restaurants, more…
The invasive roi we remove from Kona’s reefs are processed into organic fish-hydrolysate fertilizer for island farms and gardens. Your dive is part of Hawai‘i’s reef-restoration story.
Sessions run every morning on the Kona coastline in small groups that fill fast. Book early — the fish won’t wait.
