• "Pheonix Fusion"


    Made some modifications to the Pheonix. I had problems with penetration. The band power was there but the shaft was not seeing it. Shaft would barely penetrate or just tag the skin of big fish at close range. I took an old gun I wasn't going to use anymore and made 1/2" side laminations, hence the fusion. I also decided to go with a thicker 7.5 mm Wong square notch carbon shaft. Also changed the trigger guard, couldn't get used to the original one.


    117 cm band stretch
    2 5/8" 1/16" ID bands 3.5:1 stretch
    145 cm 7.5mm Wong pencil tip carbon shaft
    Poseidonsub trigger mech with auto reset new trigger guard
    Maorisub Dentex reel w/ 1.2mm line


    Preliminary results look promising with reef fish. So far the shaft goes completely through the fish and can be heard bouncing on the reef behind it. Now I have to see how it works on some bigger fish. Just need to add some epoxy for a palm swell on the handle and add a floatline attachment or rig it breakaway style.
