Homebuilt Speargun & trigger

Hello everyone,

I am looking to start spearfishing this summer. I'll be doing so off the New Jersey (USA) coast (From boat or shore which ever is available). Visibility from what I understand is pretty minimal (My dive experience is primarily in the Caribbean). I'm a tinkerer and like to do things the hard way,...i'm looking to build my gun from scratch. I'm thinking roller gun , 3ft length (due to visibility), but the problem is the trigger!!! I've seen a few posted on this site, but am really looking for something new and improved or maybe a sleeker design. The butterknife trigger is great, but I don't know if I can safely work the mechanism in murky or low vis water.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated,
