    Dude george. Thanks for the tips and about my spear I am already looking in to a new pole with a floper or slip tip around seven feet right now I just have a orange fiberglass pole but the tip is crimped on so no chanting tips. I've already missed and lost a few big fish cause of the paralyzer tip.



    Linghunt- thanks for the advice I'll play around with the weight and see what feels best to me. I just read about swb so I wanted to ask just to be safe see what the normal amount would be you know.

    Hello everyone so I'm new to the fourm and to spearing so I was just looking for some advice maybe a few tricks. I've been in the water my entirel life I grow up on Maui and have surfed for years I did a little free diving when I was younger with my dad (he lives in washington and a little in santa cruz where I grew up) but just really started up and starred spearing, so I know the basics of water safety and all that jazz and obviously diving is a little different but Im just wondering about weight vest / weight belts which is best, how much lead I need to be neutral around ten fifteen feet cause I only dive to about thirty fourty feet right now and any techniques for shallow water/ reef dives. I dive in santa barbara and Ventura right now but also looking for some spots up and down hwy 1. I use a fiberglass pole spear five feet long with paralyzer tip
