I was wondering if someone has a personal way to splice a rope (as in a poly float line) for spearfishing. Any information would be greately appreciated
Thank you in advance

yeeeeeaaaahh! that´s what I was talking about Don! Thank you so much, that link kicks ass. I guess an empty ball pen will do

what about splicing a line into itself. Like when making a loop? same concept?

Absolutely, I think they got different color ropes for show purposes

I was wondering how to do this the other day when making my FL. I have an FID that came with the rope. I saw a method that entailed actually unraveling the end of the rope and weaving the individual strands into the rope (this was for making a loop like Ben mentioned).
Here are the links:

Anyone ever try these methods? Do they work well or better than the other method?
I just used a Mtn climbing style knot (figure eight on a bight) for attaching my clip on the end of the FL but I think a splice would be a little more streamline. -
It all depends on the weave of the rope you have. That will determine what splicing method you use.
