  • Pipin video- long shots with different guns

    this is a case of commercialization and, in my opinion, a shameless marketing stunt, creating something that has the potential to hurt our sport.


    The effective range of my two guns should be roughly 3x the shaft lengths, so that is 160x3=480+the shaft itself, so 640 or 6.4 meters...plus my arm is a long range shot..yet, 99% of the time i shoot fish that are 5-10 ft away


    the odds drop so greatly when you are adding range that it is almost not worth reloading to take a hail mary...


    it seems like exactly what ben is saying, which is his effort to highlight his guns, all the while modeling the worst ethics of our sport.

  • Broward Beach Conditions

    i had a lot of fun swimming around stiltsville on sunday... Iwas mostly looking out for lionfish but there were a lot of lazy snook just laughing at me.


    I am diving saturday for sure and would like to try for sunday and monday too.

  • gun coating

    if there is any elasticity to the liner it might quite the gun a little.. I suspect it will make little difference as far as function...I would think about just doing a spraypaint camo job and getting a nice color selection you like.

  • Pensacola diving

    damn inshore...my heart goes out to you and your neighbors...it is gonna be a tough run for all of us who touch the gulf, but esp in your neck of the woods and AL, MS and LA

  • Central America report

    great write up and wonderful pictures...there is something about ecotones that is so awesome...here, the dense jungle juxtaposed with the ocean is just very cool.


    looks like a beautiful place to be

  • Gun build Journey begins!

    very vreative to make your own clamps like that...never seen that done and it seems like a good idea.


    looking forward to more reports.



    with the muzzle inserts are you going to be making normal bands and somehow jamming them into the small hole for retention or are you making BW style bands with wishbones(sort of ) on each end?

  • Lost Diver Bill Crawford

    i am not sure why, but that siloutte shot of him with the bull mahi is one of my favorite spearing images I have ever seen.



    what a tragedy to lose such a good man and fine ambassador for our sport/hobby/way of life

    welcome back old man...be safe... You know we start wondering when the next report is. Well glad to see everything is ok and the Hau mobile is in progress.I wonder how the Hau mobile will look. :rolleyes: got to be funny


    it looks like a truck that was built for spearing.....all you can tell from the outside is that there are two yaks up on a robust custom rack and that they are more secure than fort knox....once he opens the cab to show you some awesome toy, that is when the Hau-mobile really reveals it's treasures

  • Conditions were perfect ...

    well the efforts that you all share are really inspiring.


    I always try to pick up any trash that Ifind when diving, but this really helps to keep it front of mind...like anything else, you see a lot more when you are looking for it

  • what type of kayak should I get???

    it looks like a nice rig, the seat will be 40, the paddle looks basic, so 20...the hatches look solid and all have their straps, 40-80...and rod holders which, if you fish is nice, plus, they can hold a nice dive flag..24-30 bucks, plus your install time



    i think it is worth close to 450, ask a lot lower and work up is my suggestion...even for 400 bucks that is a nice kayak
