Re: Fish stringer: bad loss!

Miles already suggested a lanyard that moves the spike up the floatline a way. I guess using a different type of clip/caribiner solve the Orca problem. Is there a way to spike the fish onto the float line without the gun ever being detached from the float-line?

X dont worry about this , you typically kill the fish completely while the spear is still in, once its dead, take it off the spear and then detach the line to string it (thats a few seconds with a dead fish) no problems there..
