Harry, very nice fish my fiend...at what depth did you take him? Did you choose to horse him out of the wreck for fear of a break off or that he would hide and hold up? or both?

That is so funny, I have a Ti spork in my lunch box today!!!! I use it all the time. It is so light, I get less fatigued with eating large meals. I got a bunch one year on backcountry.com for cheap.
you,sir, are a man after my own heart
hahahaha -
great vid...
Sadot, that is awesome...way to follow through on retrieveing a fish -

one fairly ovbious drawback to Ti and any other metal besides SS is the corrosion. I know this happens with any two metals in salt, but no one had articulated it yet on this thread...any Ti parts would have to be kept away from the Al and SS parts which is a Pain in the Ass
i will say this, the ti spork i got as a camping tool about 8 years ago is the greatest tool i have ever owned...i have used it for eating, cooking, planing bamboo to make a cane pole, screw and unscrew anything, remove splinters, dig small holes....it is indestructable and easy to clean.
I like Ti but I agree with Phil, it gets a lot of "wow" because people dont know much hahaha

very cool vid...it is nuts that a pelagic fish like that will allow a huge boat to motor right over the top of it like that...very cool

good luck..you might want to try big marine cities in the US craigslist. san diego, miami, jax, louisianna..

3.5 times the shaft length is about where the gun will no longer penetrate an average fish. I use this based on a 7.5mm shaft which carries a lot of momentum.
the band configuaration has to do with how fast the spear will be going and the amount of recoil...that depends on the fish...for shooting a fast skittish fish like a YT snapper, or a bonito, you better have a light shaft that is a laser. to plug a fat grouper sitting in a hole, a stout heavy slow shaft willl fare better.
i still agree with dan, i estimate from my eye and try to aim as little as possible
