I love your thorough videos, there's nowhere else on the whole planet that you get can such indepth information about spearfishing. Your products are also fantastic, victorianly bomb proof and made to last, non of that in built obsolescence nonsense. Fantastic work you do, stay safe and all the best to everyone of you🙏💙 Now i got to watch the video! 😅
Hey Rob, what about a video with an explanation how to aim and shoot an open and closed muzzle spearguns. If you are shooting a riffle or handgun it is pretty clear how to do it, but shooting a speargun is a bit challenging task and I think such a video will help a lot beginner and even more experienced guys to shoot better.
More information regarding Spearfishing highly appreciated. Would like to see tested if a camo suit does make one less noticeable to the fish or if it makes no difference.
Thank you Rob, really appreciated your effort. I will definitely get a pair of the inserts asap. I also have another question about shooting with the speargun upside down. I am using the closed muzzle and I was wondering if it will jam in such scenario. Thanks and keep the videos coming!
Not a good idea to shoot with the gun upside down because the spear will hang down out the rail and shoot very high. It will not damage it but, will be very inaccurate. But.... there is a way if you shooting very close in a cave for example, you can choke the gun by clamping the spear and rubbers onto the barrel before you shoot. I have not done this many times but you can "choke" it sufficiently with your hand, such that the spear does not exit the gun. It will not hurt your hand because the rubber will be increasing in diameter as it contracts. I have done it bare handed but gloves will help.
We ballast our Timberline guns in a salt water tank. This is shown in our Timberline videos. With our aluminum barrel guns, we do not ballast but with our carbon, we sometimes add a small lead piece into the muzzle, depending length and type of muzzle.
Very good. I use these but they are a plastic variety. I like them a lot. I cut my bands a tad on the short side and make the wishbone longer than I’d like, and as the bands stretch a little I can tie an additional stopper knot right in the wishbone even when I’m in the water, shortening the wishbone. System has worked out well for me.
Thanks

I will discuss this in an up coming video. It is not something easy to test though, will just discuss it.
@@RobAllenSpearfishing ok thanks for the reply, from where can i order one of your spearguns? from the link i can't, im from europe Malta.

@@RobAllenSpearfishing Thank you so much for the tip!
Thank you for the informative videos
I would like to know the process of ballasting spearguns if possible
Thank you again
