Massage can't be to expensive down there right? Find the best massage therapist you can to work those sore muscles and tendons out. Then Ice and ibuprofen after (and/or whiskey). Being proactive is priceless .

Lets plan on a dive if you boys want to take a fresh water boy like me. My number is (970) 217-7214 and I would love a chance to dive with you boys.

Question- Is there any shore diving out there? You might have to slum it.

Hey Bro! I will be in Miami and able to fish the 6-10. If I need to rent/buy a kayak I might be able to arrange it. I would love to fish though and if you have any available time to go out I would sure like to keep up. THanks!

Just to remind you boys, I be in town and able to fish the 6- 10 of January. I know I don't have much to offer but it would be some company. And I would be willing to buy beer. Just saying.

Didn't see a thread like this and thought it might be fun to start one. What have you done to your guns to improve performance? I am trying to improve the Mako guns I own. I thought they were great when I first got them but after having used a few different guns now there are a few things I don't like much at all. The worst part is the loading butt. I have seen you all mention this here before. It has two major problems- it ruins the sight picture and even worse (in my opinion) it interferes with your hand grip on the gun. I cut it down on both top and bottom and shortened it so that it is closer to the handle.
I know its rough but thats the skills I have got. It feels much better in the hand without that butt crowding it. Nothing I can do about how thick it is but I think its an improvement. If you all have any better or other ideas let me know.So anybody else out there crazy like me and cutting up an expensive speargun?

Just remember that when you get back, the great state of Colorado, in its infinite wisdom, severely limits what fish you can kill with a spear. Northern Pike are all good though so have at them. And they taste good to! Just youtube how to fillet out the y-bone.

Didn't notice you were from Colorado. I am up in Fort Collins. We mostly fish in Wyoming and South Dakota. If you want some info on fishing up that way give me a shout.

Or find a cheap used gun or two use them for a bit and educate yourself on what you personally like out of a gun.

I have been sawing on my Mako for a while to make it feel right with limited success. I literally cut the loading but off of it today as an experiment to try to improve it. If I were you I would buy a aluminum or carbon speargun from the free dive store right here on this site. You cannot beat the pathos handle it utilizes for the right feel. I have one gun I put together with similar components and it is my favorite above all others. Another option might be the salvimar voodoo series. I haven't held one but they have the right " look " and right price.

Congrats I am so jealous!

So far I haven't been overcharged for the sporttube size as long as I meet the weight limit.

Sounds awesome.

I thought we dove some cold water but you boys are incredible!

Thanks for sharing! My jealousy continues.

Thanks for the link Dan.

Thanks for the info. I was upset at the life guard when he stopped me, but what could i do. He was actually pretty cool about it, told me when he was getting off work and said I could dive then. Unfortunately I had already pushed my away form my wife on vacation time limit and it was to late in the day.

Gotcha thanks
