How to Choose a Speargun | ADRENO

[@fudgepie1]

About 40 years ago I wanted a speargun but couldn't afford one. Without exception all the guns in the local dive shops had heavy 10 - 12mm spears which were fitted with reels with fancy runners for the line and variations on drop heads or screw on heads with spring loaded barbs. One of our neighbours was one of the local pioneer spear fisherman in the 60's and 70's. He gave me a design for a homemade gun using a 6mm spear with the barb attached to the spear and a hole through the back of the spear in front of the wishbone notch for the heavy monofilament line. The float line was attached to the back of the gun and used to fight the fish instead of a reel and the fish were strung on the float to keep the sharks off your arse. That design was printed in his book "Spearfishing in Natal" by Len Jones. I still have that paper cover book with Len's own artwork. Thereafter guns rigged with spears like that were called Natal Guns. Now, years later I see that method of rigging the guns in spearfishing videos from all over the world.

fudgepie1 My first spearfishing book was “Modern Spearfishing” by a Mediterranean diver by the name of Vane Ivanovic. It’s from the fifties so it’s a bit outdated but it got me into the sport with more knowledge than my friends.

[@bonezone3988]

This video feels like I rocked up to a spearfishing shop and just asked someone what to buy. Pretty epic

[@thomashoang7526]

Good tips but only disagree with 80grit sandpaper on timber spearguns. I’d use 240, 320 then 0000 steel wool with teak oil or wax to finish it off 👍

[@YM-pe5kp]

Amazing detailed video, and i dont even know anything about spear fishing and stumbled across this and watch it all the way throughout the end.

[@nickcoudounellis2020]

Back in the 70s I had a "Bazooka " spear gun and also a 12 Gauge power head also a 44 Magnum power head and a shark dart. (Illegal nowadays) I also made from timber my own guns. Use to buy all my accessories from a shop called Mike Symonds in George Street (no longer there). I have to admit making your own gun to your personal requirements and spearing fish or sharks is so rewarding. I wouldn't kill a shark thesedays though. I started spearfishing back in the 70s thanks to Ben and Valerie Crop (underwater photographers)

[@rvierra7235]

Great post on speargun selection! Thank you.

[@kaiwagnersfishing4371]

I'm really interested in knowing the difference between the shafts. It is a bit underrated but I think a video on it would be great 👍

[@leoogle2008]

Interest subject regarding spear gun. I'm also a crazy for it. During my young time, there is impossible you can get a spear gun. That is 1958 at Hong Kong. At that time we only can cut inside tire bladder as rubber power. Spear is made of bamboo a piece of steel as spear tip. But today, you're lucky to have so many choice of spear gun. But choose the one base on your diving experience is more important. By experience, if you a beginner, try to choose simple basic rubber spear gun in shorter or medium size which is easier to handle.

[@jakedk11able]

Could watch these videos all day even If I wasn’t in to fishing

[@kaloyanivanov8311]

I'm complete begginer in this sport. I recently bought a supposed 110cm spear gun(based on many suggestions throughout the web). What bothers me is that the speargun came indeed with a 110cm barrel, however the handle and trigger add quite a bit of extra length, that combined with the overhand of the shaft, I am looking at 160cm loaded spear. Isn't this an overkill(also wouldn't it hurt my maneuverability), having in mind that I would be using it mainly for shore diving in Northern Greece, and should I be refunding my money and getting a shorter speargun?

[@thebutcherapprentice3204]

I love spear fishing, hope I can buy speargun like these someday for me and to my future wife.🙏🙂

[@choniestudios1200]

Hey, I’m an experienced free diver at age of 13, I’m looking for a speargun as I don’t have one. I am an explorer so I need one that I can swim around with quite a lot. Also need it to go quite far in the water because In Norway the fish will take off when you are 2-3 meters away from it.

[@zackzittel7683]

Mares makes a good line of pneumatic spearguns, they’re really compact (the mini sten is like 18” overall) they’re way more compact compared to rubber band guns. It uses a spring and a pneumatic piston to propel the spear

[@linkrr3158]

I’ve got the sgs it’s such a good gun I’ve had it for about 2 years now and it’s perfect

[@christopherobrien5076]

What length gun would you recommend for poking around in caves and shooting flatfish?

[@stratosm3154]

Christopher O'Brien 75cm is good

[@tordringereidebergholtz7573]

I can confirm that 75 is a good way to go. This does depend on your height though. I'm 178cm and my 75 is perfect for flatfish and smaller fish close to shore. Especially good for getting fish in small caves and under rocks. Additionally I'd recommend 1 rubber for flatfish, that way you won't damage your spear as quickly.

[@stratosm3154]

Tordemann it also depends on your strength

[@tordringereidebergholtz7573]

The King Yes, i know some people who have opted for getting 2 slightly longer rubbers instead of one standard, which seems to be better if the normal one is to tight to load. But that was with 90cm, not 75.

[@fishmut]

Tord Ringereide Bergholtz ...I bought a beauchat mundial and I think the band was 18 or 20 not sure now it was a few years ago but with the one rubber I busted my guts trying to load it, I didn’t enjoy it at all so I went down to 16 and load ok now. I think it’s length was 100 or 110 big enough for me as I’m only 5,5 ft tall a bit big , I could go shorter gun better.

Thanks for the video. I have a Beuchat Mundial speargun with 16mm bands. I would like to buy another set of bands however I don't know how to measure the length of my gun. any suggestion?

[@guydives1246]

do you mean, you dont know how to measure how long the bands need to be for the gun?

[@nobody46820]

Why don't you just measure the length of your existing bands?

[@dimitristripakis7364]

The rubber guns have a cord that is permanently tied into the rubber. So if it breaks, you throw the rubber away ? It does not seem replaceable (it should be).

[@uoj4840]

I'm young and new to diving and whatnot but am keen as to get an easy-to-use, affordable yet effective gun to use in reef-like shore areas. I do have a pole spear and have tried using it a few times, but I've struggled to get close enough to where I can actually take a shot without spooking the fish and having it swim away or retreat under a low rock. I was curious about what the name of the black speargun just to our left of the blue gun was called? (The one with the twin 14s) Thankyou in advance to anyone that could maybe give me a few tips on finding a gun for myself or even recommending one. :)

[@urb6857]

You could try and find a cheap rob Allen scorpia. In regards to your hunting style. Learn to dolphin dive smoothly, take your snorkel out of your mouth before you dive to stop air bubbles, don’t look at the fish or square your shoulders until you need to shoot because they can see that you are hunting them,be calm and less sporadic with your movements, try to use cover and wait for the curious fish to come to you instead of chasing them out in the open and practice co2 tables to stay down under for longer.

[@romanboi10]

Get a 75cm-110cm Cressi speargun. They are precise and easy to use. Get an open muzzle which means you wrap the line around the shaft to hold the shaft down on the end. This prepares you for bigger wood guns with open muzzle. But Cressi is great for beginners and experienced users.

[@uoj4840]

romanboi10 thankyou. Since this comment, I’ve been using a salvimar vuoto predathor pneumatic speargun for a while now, about 90cm in full length from handle to muzzle, and have gotten many feeds out of it. The one problem I am having is I’m finding it hard to line up the shot I’m looking for due to the big round cylinder-like structure of the gun, impairing view of the fish, therefore making it difficult to line up a nice shot. I still manage, however it just doesn’t feel satisfying and feels a lot more flukey due to not actually being able to choose where to place my shot. Hence, why I’ve been looking at rubber guns lately. I have used one of my mates big wooden closed muzzle spearguns, and found it so much easier to see the fish when aiming for it. I think the factor of being able to see the shaft itself is a big positive for being able to line up that shot. A gun I’ve been looking at is the Beuchat Marlin Grommet, found on spearfishing.com.au going for about $300. I must say I haven’t looked very far at all beyond that gun, as I’ve always had a pretty keen eye on it. Is there anything regarding something I’ve said in this comment you could help me with or give your two cents on per say? Thanks a lot for your reply :)

[@uoj4840]

Hieuoy thanks a lot for your reply, too. Unfortunately I didn’t see this when you posted it but it would’ve been really handy to have known this stuff at the time. In the past 6 months I’ve greatly improved my techniques and have just recently looked into co2 and o2 tables and exercises. Cheers!

[@romanboi10]

@@uoj4840 Hey. Thats cool. The Beuchat spearguns are pretty good. I have a Rob Allen myself and cant go wrong but I started on Cressi brand. A lot of railguns are similar, just get a good length that you can load and get in the water. Maybe your mates wooden gun was enclosed track for the shaft. Haven't seen too many closed muzzle (bridge over shaft at end) wood guns. Ya it's nice to aim by looking down the shaft instead of pneumatic guns. Plus in a zombie apocalypse survival situation, with rubber guns, you don't have to reload air in those pneumatic guns periodically. All the pros use bands. Have fun, stay safe.

[@patrickholcomb9628]

most " Hawaiian" slings don't use steel for their interconnections. my point is, corrosion is specific to a type of metal, rust is a specific type of corrosion. where as all corrosion can be denoted to all metals exposed to oxygen reactive within oxygen based atmosphere. point is: rinse your stuff after each use. but treat it in the down time differently. dry lube best or aquas silicone (avoid petrol based). petrol will stink and scare fish.
