MOHAMMED JASSIM AL-KUWARI

One man who is fast becoming a legend in blue water hunting is Mohammed Jassim Al Kuwari.

He has now become known as MJK, for his incredible stone shots on insane fish.

These epic stone shots were made famous in Mohammed’s legendary film Going East and have quickly become known as ‘MJK’s , the name seems to have stuck.

At certain times of the year his local waters teem with huge shoals of fish all shapes and sizes. With these shoals come good numbers of big pelagics, the perfect environment for Mohammed to hone his skill as an expert marksman.

Between seasons and when preparing for trips Mohammed can be found experimenting and pushing his gear and skill levels to the max. It is this dedication and attention to detail that is driven by an unquenchable desire that makes Mohammed a man worthy of standing with the Legends of spearfishing.

Back at his home in Qatar Mohammed has been instrumental in the development of spearfishing in the gulf, through sharing the sport with other Spearo’s and showing them his hunting techniques, his spearfishing films with the latest being One Fish Going East and his spearfishing shop Qatarsub which connects him even more so to the local spearfishing community.

He often travels abroad to seminars and conventions with the mission of learning everything he can from well known spearfisherman. He has played an instrumental role in inspiring and encouraging spearfishing in Qatar.

The goal for him however is not just to shoot amazing fish, Mohammed has an incredible desire to document in the best way possible each and every adventure, its his way of sharing in what is essentially a very personal journey of exploration and adventure for him.

Over the years Mohammed has stayed on the cutting edge of spearfishing cinematography. Pioneering and perfecting this art that has made him and his films famous world wide.

But there is more behind the man with the magic shots than meets the eye. MJK has an unbelievable passion for spearfishing adventure and is constantly on the look out for new and wild places to dive. Often taking chances on going to unexplored and exotic places that have never been dived before.
