Nice carp spaghetti! The three main differences I think between fresh and saltwater shooting are these:

1. You don't need as much weight in freshwater.
2. Sitting on the bottom and waiting for fish, or attempting to "lure" fish in rarely works. Where I live we find a school, and then several people dive the deep end of the school and blow bubbles to keep them from all scattering, then the shooter dives down, and takes the shot.
3. Freshwater shooting is usually shallower, but not necessarily, because some people spear on wrecks and the such in the great lakes, and other very deep lakes.

Just because it seems simpler doesn't mean its any less challenging. It just has its own unique challenges to offer. Pastor, we need to get you out here for some good old fashioned Wisconsin spearfishing.
