    I actually live in California, but I flew out to VA to teach a freediving class and a offer spearfishing clinic. At the end of it all, we went spearfishing! Call Dive Quarters scuba shop to find out what clubs you might want to join. That is the shop I was teaching at.

    Try it... and you'll never go back to Alder. Pecan brings out the sweetness in these fish, a real tasty, nutty smoked flavor - missing when smoked with the wrong woods (alder is good, but... you'll see) -just right for both Saltwater & "most" Freshwater fish, not strong or overpowering ( can't do much with Catfish except Buttermilk, Cornmeal & Flour- fried in canola or safflower oil) Try apple or cherry with Lamb, quality Ribeye & Filet Mignon. Excellent video -keep up the Cool Hobby & uploads.

    Oh, I was thinking about the other gun. That gun is actually an O.ME.R Enclosed Track 130cm. The gun was sanded down and has the Blue O.ME.R camo stickers on it. That gun comes either in black or brown camo. This one was a prototype.

    The 110cm gun is good for a combination of reef and bluewater. It will be light weight, maneuverable, and accurate. It will have an effective penetration range of about 13ft-15ft from the tip of the spear.

    It is small for bluewater pelagic fish, but should work for some reef fish. 90cm is the smallest size I would use for hunting pelagic fish. I prefer 115cm.

    Dan, you have told me about the O.ME.R Cayman E.T. for reef spearfishing. You said I should use an 110-115 cm gun. The problem is, is that I'm small. And it's vital for me not to waste energy loading the gun. will it be hard for me to load?

    I have never been diving there before, but I know the area. You are on the E side of the sea of cortez and at the top. I have been diving off San Carlos and shot yellowtail there in May and june. I would predict that the area you will be will be good for reef fish like parrot fish, and snapper.

    I love to fish but never in my life have I ever fished like this, it seems very dangerous. Gah! So many questions! When you're diving like that I imagine you get turned around a lot and I'd have the fear of shooting one of my m8s by shear vision loss due to water clearity. Also, I was kind of wondering what keeps you from catching a bigger fish and it pulling you? Not much control as far weight goes in the water. Also, what about attracting sharks?!
