Thread: Spear Guns

^Agreed. Spring steel if you can get it, flopper down if you can get it. Don't bother with paralyzer heads or slip tips. RA's are good, wettie had some other brand ones which weren't to badly priced from memory. I prefer shorter overhang, but 40cm or less is the general rule.
@gadgetman you will need new mono & crimps for a new spear too - 200-300lb is about right IMO, I prefer the lighter stuff.

I got the only head I could find in the city for now. If I want anything else I'll probably need to import it of make it.
