Howdy. Plastic navy represent

I was hitting against various things like fence posts and thick plastic garbage cans. I think with my gloves on it will get through fish skulls with little problem.

I won't know until I try

So I have a desire to stream line my process from pulling the trigger to fish in the float/boat. I currently use my calf knife to brain the fish, usually while on the shaft and then, remove from shaft and swim to boat or pull in float.

I have tried in the past using the shaft to iki the fish. I don't like this. First I don't like to take the fish off without him being dead and two the shaft has nothing to give grip and is unwieldy while underwater.
I want a quick draw way to dispatch fish.

I had this idea. Make a small and low profile iki. I came up with this. You loop a finger through the loop and you get a lot of control and can apply a lot of force.

I am thinking about putting a small glob of shape lock on the top but I don't think it is necessary. I am going to either pour a new pinch weight and drill out a home to slide this in Or use a bungee around a weight to hold it there

I also have a small knife on my belt for emergencies I am going to see if I can find a way to mount it there.

I also though about clipping it five feet behind me on my floatline.

Wow!! Mazal tov! What a great milestone. To another 50 happy years or more

I like it!! It looks a little rough around the edges, in a metaphoric way, rugged. I hope it serves you well and in good health for many years.

Sounds like a pretty sweet trip G. Going to work or just vacation?

Howdy

Hey Jim. Ill be looking for you guys

Hahaha. I feel you

I would take a look at reefchief gun build. A nice hole gun or short reef gun might be a compliment to the 110. Like a 90 or 80 euro equivalent.

I like to dive with my ra90 on a lot of shore dives because of the ledges and how much clearance there is under them.

For sure man. There is always a place for a big gun for open water and long shots.

I loaned my 130 to hardline while he is getting his gun upgraded and I bet he would tell you it is a lot of gun for the reef

You might be still very long with a 55" gun. That is 140cm total length.

What is it you want. A wooden gun to replace your current RA? Or a totally different purpose gun, made of wood?

I have heard that the vector marine blanks are fine. It is the treated "American" teak though. I don't think it is actually teak

For shore diving a 60" is WAY over kill

My 120 is too long for some shallow shore dives.

I don't know hatch guns so I can't comment on them but I was looking at the speardiver wood guns today and they are exquisite.

Wow. I am insanely jealous!!! A wife who cleans fish. You were really good in a passed life my friend. Really good

Welcome

I never thought about how I do it. I am palms down. I use my thumb to make the wishbones lay right.

Also. I love that song.

Great shot on the hog. Photo and spear. No damage to the fillets

Yeah. This is beauty but gratuitous. All it shows people is that you can some times win at Russian roulette.

I love sharks and I hold them in the utmost respect. I will leave if they are there and agressive. In a tense situation, I believe I am more important and would ph one if I had too. People should not flirt with whites

I really thought about shooting him but I didn't know nothing about handling or cleaning it and...I wasn't a Boy Scout but, I still want to be prepared.

I was genuinely surprised by that guy. He was nestled into the ledge edge that was an overhang. I was over the top and holding the edge looking under neath. I literally looked right at the fish, his back and side, and put my hand right on it!! I didn't see it at all. It just moved and I instinctively yanked my hand back and looked to see him. I was soooo lucky.

Hahaha thanks. Don't poke too hard. That already cost me my last bag
