Getting into spearfishing - Dampier
Submitted by Nath86 on Mon, 2012-11-19 18:18
Hi all,
I'm pretty keen to get in a and give spearing a go.
I've picked up a second hand Seacsub Xtreame 95 that should get me started but I'm after any general tips, tricks or info.
Also After doing a bit of research I see Adreano have the Rob Allen Tuna rail guns on for a bit of a deal. $400 down from $600.
Would the 110 be any good for in around the reefs chasing trout and blue bones.
I'm going to need a second gun anyway down the track when my brother moves back up so are these any good / suited for what i want to do?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Cheers Nath

I have a Ron Allen 1.1 and it's awesome perfect mix of distance and manouvarability for queenies, grouper ect down south in the reefs. I will be going double rubber soon just for that bit extra power on big fish but other than that not a problem.
always looking for a new challenge!!

Cheers for the tips
Cheers for the tips guys
Unfortunately I'm working tomorrow. I'm free weekends though if your / anyone is ever chasing a deckie or skipper.
I go most weekends (fishing normally but now keen for a spear) so anyone let us know and I'll see if I'm free or if there is a free seat.

spin
Took the boat for a quick spin just then (bottom of tide) and it was dirty as around west lewis, might be different on the high. (just for anyone looking to head out up here)
