I just took one of those big triggers the other day up at Isla San Jose. I wasn't paying attention when swimming it back to the boat and It bit me so bad on the stomach that completely broke the skin and left a huge bruise. Felt lucky it didn't bite me somewhere else...Those things don't mess around!! Really enjoying learning the waters here around La Paz. Thanks for your videos Rene.
I built that 150 cm speargun about 15 years ago. I used aged iroko, laminated it with plasto epoxy. The handle is laminated in 3 parts into the stock. The mecanism is a laser cut version of my best design. I have used it in over 100 guns. It has an open top. This reduces the noise, a lot. The bands are 16 mm primeline at about 340% and the shaft is a 170 or 180 cm 7.5 mm spearmaster. The reel is also a spearmaster.
I'm sure you know this but, for your viewers that don't, it is important to remember to keep your hands away from the mouth of a triggerfish!! I have a nice little scar on my finger to show what happens when a dummy gets too close!
Nice to meet you in Muertos today. Thanks for all the good spear fishing advice.
Cool! Now you know all my secrets go get some fish!
Awesome video. Remind me my spearfishing adventures. Cheers !
Great Vid! Nice shooting!

You need a bigger boat!🤣⚓
Very difficult resisting the pull of Jaws
You're videos are awesome. Are you using your own brand guns?
Yes i make my own spearguns
Going to Bahia Concepcion next week, any good spots around there?
Not my zone at all, it's shallow inside, i guess you need a panga to go out
@@potvinr barely saw this reply... found a 35 foot area that had 10 lbs cuberas... plenty big for 30+ tacos, it was epic
