question about a speargun reel

[Bill McIntyre]

Neither the people in a fishing tackle shop nor the people in a dive shop are likely to know how to mount a particular reel on a particular gun. The exception might be a dive shop that sells that specific reel and gun, but even then you are likely to run into a tank monkey that doesn't know a damn thing about spearfishing equipment.

What brand is your gun? What brand is your reel?

I have a jbl gun not the best but its fine and i got a jbl reel. I know how to mount it but i dont know get the crimps and things. Do you need a special too for the crimps? the only thing i dont understand now is the crimps and how you connect it to the shaft. I know you already told me but i didnt really understand it soryy.

Read the crimping tutorial at Leadertec, maybe it will make sense:

Calico,
if your talking about North county Scuba.... the guys in there are nice guys, but definitely not spearos. id have to agree with bill that they would only be guessing about how to rig your reel. ive bought some stuff from their shop and the guy is always trying to get me scuba certified when all i wanna do is free dive and shoot fish. maybe try blue water tackle off of lomas santa fe by the train station, they have all kinds of sh-t and might be able to hook you up
