  • Choosing the right speargun is an overwhelming task for the beginner spearo. You don't want to spend too much on your first speargun, but spend too little and the gun will be inaccurate and underpowered. In this video, Joe Pk joins Anthony at the Spearfishing Store to give the beginner some advice for choosing their first speargun.

    Dear Joe, love ur channel a lot, but as a passionate spearfisher from the austrian alps i am really really afraid of tides, currents and the stuff a mountain guy like me doesnt now anything about. So if u find the time to do a tide and current special for dummies with ski on their feet pls pls do a special about it. Greetings from the alps ...sven.

    Bought all my initial spearfishing gear from these guys when I first started out, really reasonable prices and great customer care even to Northern Ireland. I'm heading down there this summer so will defo be popping in to grab some bits. Nice vid for those starting out Joe Pk.

    • @JoePkSpearfishing
      @JoePkSpearfishing  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      The comanche is brilliant! Toughest gun I've ever owned. Yet the Cherokee is a bit more refined.

      @@JoePkSpearfishing hey Joe. You should get into a bit more testing and tuition spearfishing blogs. We do a similar thing but for SUP th-cam.com/users/SUPboardermagvideos?view_as=subscriber . Im sure if you got into more gun and gear testing you subs would love it. I would! Im sure the shop would get behind it too. Anyway only an idea keep it up. Your last videos have really been top stuff.

    I think the Mares Viper Pro is a pretty good deal, as it comes with a reel and is of a good built quality. More bang for the buck compared to the mid and high level Cressis.

    Hoho it’s Anthony from the store , he really does know his stuff , I was there to buy my first gear a month ago and spent couple of hours picking his brain , he really did help me go towards the right direction to get my first gear sorted ,
    He is really nice and informative , I highly recommend visiting his store
    Too bad I couldn’t catch him last week I was there , but the older guys were really helpful nonetheless ,
    Thank you Joe pk , please keep updating with more videos , always eager for another one , also do you ever take beginner out for dives ? Ahah I’ve got couple of Dives under my belt

    hello joe.
    any chance of doing a video going into more detail on spearguns and how you string them up etc, i see some have magnets on the end to keep the spear located while some are held on buy the string rap, surely the magnets take some power away?,
    do the guns with guide rails still have rollers on the end?
    and could you show the reel set up please,
    theres no shops close to me to go and view all the accessories and setups.

  • @adriansth
    @adriansth 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I would say the boungy is most importatant for not loosing the fish as it can tear easily when speard in the flesh or worse stomach. Other then that. Great video keep it up. Allways love a little speargun talk

      Hi the shop is located in Totnes. If you’re looking to get started I’d recommend calling Barcley at the shop first on 07918 612234 because he is running it solo at the moment - just to get a slot where he can focus on you. How exciting!!

    Out of interest, why are pneumatic guns never talked about? I had a lot of success with these guns. I found them more streamlined and lasted many years if washed and self serviced each season.
