as far as how they help, it is mostly for your confidence BUT there have been a few times i was glad to have my gun taped up.
I used to have my fins taped but I sold them and the sticker i tried didnt stay on the CF fins. I do however have both of my RA's taped, in different patterns and I have had good experiences. the most common thing that will happen is with macks and jacks...i will see one doing it's fast pass through an area and I will do a sprint dive at it and stick my gun out twords it but not right at it, then i trun the gun a few time and the fish will often freeze and look at the gun, this allows me the half second to actually line it up and shoot.
i also have had great success using my gun as a flasher...I drop the gun and let it sink..then i bob it a few times to make the tape flash and pull it up to me quickly...triggers love to follow it all the way up and right to the cooler

Very cool!
On my last delivery, we had dolphins riding the bow for close to an hour. Very smart and intelligent animals. On a few occasions, they would pop up and hydroplane so that over half of their body was above sea level, but still beneath the water, way cool. Watching them roll over and make eye contact with you is so humbling.

humbling is exactly the right word...they are so intelligent it really feels strange to make eye contact...i have had only one wild encounter and I was aspetto in about 35 ft and a pod passed right over me and one small fry swung down and did a quick loop around me, just made eye contact and was back to the family...that moment shifted my perspective on many things.
very cool video

welcome friend...glad you have ditched the hose

the best training is of course diving...short of that, follow the advice above. I sometimes will hit the treadmill with a snorkel..not literaly, but i run with a snorkel in my mouth to limit and control my breathing.
just take it slow and dont push yourself
