I've seen some pictures of ernst with some tanker fish he took with a 75.

Riffe guns blow in my opinion. I've had a few (except the euro's) and hated them. Muzzle jump and recoil were some of the major issues. The island was the only gun I have ever shot in my life where I could miss a point blank shot.
I believe jbl is now making a product up to par with riffe and they cost so much less.
A great wsb gun is the new jbl elite mid handle if your on a budget. Or you canshoot em with euro guns. The speardiver euro in a 120 or 130 would be great.
Edit: Don I have shot a bunch of whites with my 90 and a flopper. Never lost a white with flopper shaft either.
Awesome pictures! I want me a red sooo bad...
The biggest difference for me when I'm diving floatlines is the drag between polyprop and a neptonics tube style.
If i'm diving deep or in really high current I will never use a polyprop line if I have the tube style line with me. The poly lines compared to the tube style lines is like dragging around an anchor vs nothing.
I will never use the tube style lines when hunting grouper or other hard fighting reef fish in mex though no matter the conditions, those floatlines will only last 1 fish if they get it into the rocks.
Damn dude you guys are diving in some rough shit.
Thanks for the video's, enjoyed em!
Wow that is awesome footage. Some of those bluefin were absolute slugs. My trigger finger was itching!
I went from leaderfins carbons to the C100's. Night and day.
The only fins I have used that have comparable preformance are my specialfins hybrid professionals, the c100's are a little bit better still and about half the price...
Man that is gnarly. Glad you were ok!
Nice fish too man.
You don't mean the other way around?
Nope, shoot the same gun enough times and you can figure out exactly where the limit is. I watched a friend shoot his biggest wahoo at the end of two wraps on a 130. The shot was so far the slip tip couldn't make it through the fish and backed itself out a half inch over from where it went in. Thank god for spectra haha.
300lb mono no problem. 400lb a little tight but works fine. Either way myself and others who are better divers than me agree that for this length gun two wraps is a waste of time.
I used to think single wrap on all railguns was the way to go to. Then I saw and did some things that changed my thinking. 130 and over I shoot 2 wraps, under 130 and its a single.
I didn't notice until this thread...
Dan how does the guns line release handle two wraps of line? Looking at a 130 to replace my mako 120...
Dude congrats on your first! They will only get bigger from here on out.
Cool video. First time I saw them jumping down in baja I though it was game-fish blowing up on the horizon haha.
I haven't taken my F10 off in over a year...
Tanks are for woosies :atongue::D
Dude ~`~`~`~` that. Feeding them like that should be illegal. It just teaches them that divers mean food.
Awesome to have you here man!
Throw up some pictures of that polespear!
Awesome pictures. Thanks for sharing. That bug looks huge!
Nice seeing you at the Fred Hall. Welcome!
