awesome report Hau...nice work as usual.

Jbrew, congrats on getting back on the water....did you break the cherry on the new yak and get her bloody yet?

howdy

as I try it here in my chair, I was considering the hmph! sound a grunt, when it really isn't...when I actually grunt there is no air movement at all, but still, it feels like it uses air?

tinu, that is hilarious

steve, I worded it poorly, what i meant was do you consume your breath to do it?

back to grunting....
...for those of you who do it...do you use air? does it cost you significant bottom time?

Thank you Don....
your threads are a wonderful tour of a history I wish I could have lived. Thank you for sharing it with me/us

cool, so you shoot and let the gun drift/sink? and then use floatline for retaining the gun?

i was gonna add that too Don, the most effective fish attractant seem to be the sound of firing your gun...
...approx 1,387,267 mackeral have swam past me while reloading...D'oh!

All good points Dan, as i suspected, you had given this thought and made a decision.

maybe just remove your thread? i think that will keep things much cleaner....

that's cool too...I would be worried about having my stringer get stolen by one of our fiesty nurse sharsk...just ask Hau about wrestling sharks to keep his $1.99 chum bag hahahah or hearing his anchor get dragged across the reef by a nurse

everyone is correct

many of the older billers and all the seahornet's I've seen have fully closed muzzles.
new billers have the semi-enclosed muzzle (seen in the pic as b10) which will not allow the shaft to fall out but can "snap" the shaft through for quick loading...this does allow for any type of shaft to pass through(pin, small fin and full fin)

I filed mine out a leeeeetle bit for easy of quick loading.

that is great news Dan...if only the weather would break for us

the one time i tried to grunt underwater i somehow got sea water in my mouth and almost threw up at -35ft hahaha, needless to say i have not pursued that move...

jeff what you say makes a lot of sense...worth reflecting on for a while to think about other habits we know of that we could gain an advantage with

x2, that is what i am shooting right now...my bands are long though...for smooth shooting

you are right, I would say that the only reason to have FWC would be to report someone for poaching, robbing traps, dive flag violations....etc.

and in a bad confrontation, any authority is welcome to help dispell anger.

some ass hat gets loud about you diving on his spot and tries to hurt you/ ram your boat/ run over a diver out of anger.

or any other situation involving an ass hat off south florida.....

Monster you really feel the difference is negligible? as to all aspects or just the site picture?

for the sake of loading I think i can reload 45% faster on the same gun with the open muzzle as opposed to the closed...

great story and tip..thanks monster

monster, Greek is using a 110 BAND gun now :@

he is now a big advocate

would you break down the summary of that story for us hopeless gringos ?
