Where are the records posted at? Is this mutton big enough for a record?

19lb Mutton
April 22 2010
Jupiter, Florida

Dyneema slows down your shot a lot but it's a lot stronger than mono. Dyneema also doesn't get affected by sun or saltwater. It is also more abrasive resistant. Mono is easier to handle because dyneema is prone to tangle easier. Dyneema is also easier to see in the water. Mono is the best choice is you are spearing fish that don't run to the wrecks. You get a faster shaft speed and longer range with mono as it glides through the water much better. The cost is probably the same since you don't have to change dyneema as often. Dyneema doesn't stretch like mono if that makes any difference to you.

Whats the story on the bent shaft?

knock-on-wood I have yet to have a YJ bend a shaft.

They will bend a stainsteel shaft but not a SA shaft.

Nice catch!

Enjoy! I wish I could have edited the video better. Software kept crashing.

They say gopro is coming out with a fix. Who really knows when though.

from the gopro forum

I've heard on the ""grapevine"" there is a new oversize black ring under development that has a screw on flat lens with O ring seal.

The current black ring is very brittle, so if you are thinking of modifying it be careful, especially when tightening the screws.

Nice fish and nice story!

Yes the Gopro HD worked well. I took it down to 85ft without the outer lens leaking. Good job to SeaWeed Engineering! I think the videos are great especially for such a small camera!

Fins look great!

Just a few photos of some of the fish. All fish were caught freediving with reels. Depths were up to 85ft. Video was taken with gopro but need to edit videos.

Dan,

I have no doubts that your fins are awesome. But there are some really nice fins out there. If you go to the expo, check out XXone Anax fins or bleu tec fins.

My Dapiran fins are very good quality.

Redtide, stop pushing off the bottom with your fins

Most of the new carbon fins in the market are very durable.

As soon as i go diving, i will upload a video. I know one other kid from Jupiter altered his housing too. He has yet to go diving too.

If you would own a gopro, you would understand. Every gopro owner is very disappointed with the quality of underwater videos. The gopro is a small camera that takes awesome video 1080p and can even do 60fps in 720p. But once its put underwater, the video becomes blurry. The housing lens on the go pro is curved a lot and it causes underwater videos to be blurry. The fix is to place a flat lens on the outside of the housing lens to get a clear video. Davie helped me a lot to put it together.

Special thanks to Davie for putting housing together. I am lucky i had an old Fuji housing laying around that fit perfectly over the gopro.
