Saludos, linda pesca.

I have some building experience and I'll help you. I'm going to get a kick out of telling Tito about it. The biggest thing will be to make a line guide plate as I don't like pins for reasons already mentioned, plus I don't know how to make a pin stay in one position. Call me the day before you want to do it.
I don't know if you can see in the pictures but I made the guide plate usin a very large ss washer that i cut and shaped with grinder.:)

This is something I build 13 years ago on a short notice to try my hand at fishing bluewater (didn't know better)
. It's kinda rough and I used a jbl handle 'cause It's what I had at the time but it was build in one afternoon the day before I got invited bluewater hunting.It,s mahogany from a door frame and its one piece, it's bent about about 3/32 of an inch to the right (never got a chance to let the wood get the stress out) since built.Got three kings with it with a detachable head (also jbl) that day and never used again until my wood riffe got stolen last year and used it only once more and got a 27 pound cubera but got another gun so now it sits in the closet.

Hate to say it but SB is probably the place to start looking for potential members.
Snap out of it boy, what the hell is wrong with you!

Welcome!:)

Remember, everything looks bigger underwater so technically what we ''see'' is bigger than what it is...
Now let me tell you about that 70# yellowtail snapper that I ...................

Yep, this got me thinking and found the same info on the marinebio.org site. That's roughly 102lb and 67'' long. Soooo I go back to my 80lb ''estimate''
After all you know how we fishermen are......

I believe that some fish like ''cudas'' and snook put more weight and ''thickness'' but not much more length after they start to grow real big. I dont know if you notice how a smaller specimen looks slimmer but larger ones look thicker. Sorry I'm slow typer and didn't see your question between pics. Now that I think about it it was probably for the best I didn't spear it since I only had a 30' float line (I am not a deep diver and usually hunt 15-25 ft) and the fish would probably would had bolted to the nearby channel.
-
Thats a nice one. Do you know how tall is he? Just to give me some perspective cause the one I saw today seemed bigger than that one.
-
Two ''short'' 5/8 , 5/16 shaft with riffe's big spearpoint ( which I don't like) but it came with it. I shot the fish from kind of far from the gun for it was wary and didn,t allow to get any closer (about 10- 12 feet).BTW they do get big my pb is 46# but on rod and reel, and this one was way bigger than that, I probably exagerated the size on this one(closer to 60+) but world record is over 85# and you know how we fishermen are.........
