Lost: One fin, carbon blade in H Dessault footpocket size 9-11(42-44). Flew off the boat while in motion because it was placed on the rear seat, in June 2009, south of Haulover inlet. I think it was the 2nd reef but I'm not sure. Contact Dan through the forum or email seahunterusa@rogers.com

This thread is a sort of bulletin board for lost and found spearfishing gear, for people wishing to get back their lost gear or return gear they found to the original owner. Please keep the posting/posts concise and pertinent so as not to clutter the thread and make going through stuff more difficult. Possible information to include; description of the gear, date lost/found, location, and contact information. I think it will also be interesting to see which items are prone to being lost, and how they were lost.

Something about the way you wrote all that made it very pleasant to read, and not only because of the positive review. I'm glad the fins worked out for you. You could've said "new" with a straight face, one 30 min pool session doesn't count

They did flex more than I was used to but I assure you, once you slow down and do not over kick them (if this makes since) you will understand.

That's simply amazing to me, I guess it's all relative. In the search of ultimate performance keep in mind that I consider that particular combination stiff. How did the Pathos footpockets fit you? What's your foot size? How thick the socks?

I don't know much about the Mako gun other than what everyone else knows, that it's the same as some model Rabitech. But one thing I can point out to you is the rubber butt pad your gun may or may not have. This rubber cover makes stomach loading more comfortable, but it also makes it impossible to grip the handle properly as it's in the way of the wrist. I don't know if it's any better when this rubber piece is removed. Based on what I've seen I would definitely remove it and use a chest pad instead, I don't consider the gun usable with that rubber piece on. But I wouldn't say that it defines the gun.

I drill the hole at the angle I want, so that the pin can remain straight.

Then it's good to know the exact length and angle of the pin before hand

Palms up :thumbsup1:

Interesting stories fuzz and Jeff.

yeah definetly not to tough till the last 4 inches or so.

If the gun had a butt extension you'd be able to load it. You need to learn how to stomach load with that gun.

I have some building experience and I'll help you. I'm going to get a kick out of telling Tito about it. The biggest thing will be to make a line guide plate as I don't like pins for reasons already mentioned, plus I don't know how to make a pin stay in one position. Call me the day before you want to do it.

The bands do get softer after a while, but not that fast. Are you having the most difficulty in the last 2"? Those guns are not really designed to be hip loaded.

Are they so pretty that you caress them after you shoot them? Come on, admit it on public television

Interesting, Tito's guns that I've seen all have the band slot built into the wood stock. I'd cut that muzzle off and make holes for the bands. With any luck you'll get a 115 out of it which is still good enough.

fuzz, what kind of fish is that?

It's night and you can tarpon in the tortugas cam. It's trippy, the camera must have a light and the tarpon are attracted to it.

fuzz, you've seen Tito's guns? They're basically a wood gun with a euro handle, like the omer master America. Well made guns.

I tried the ginger thing once albeit in a capsule, it made me sick before I even got on the boat.

It's a trident! Which browser are you seeing the vids on?

The video doesn't seem to be working on Internet Explorer, I'm trying to find a fix.

What about; make sure the bicycle tires have enough air? <img src= " height="23" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x">

I remembered, if you black out with the snorkel in your mouth it will funnel water into your mouth.
