Well, i am fishing for about 8 months from our boat (trolling),
as i love fish and love fishing, while we anchor i cant fish.
I love freediving so that spear fishing looked like a great way to fish.
since my parents don't allow me to use a speargun i looked for an alternitve and a hawiian sling looked like a good idea.
Here are my questions:
1. Do i have to get a wet suit? i am in the med and the water is warm in the summer. i dived here to 15 meters and the water was still warm.
2. How diffcult is it to fish with a hawiian sling?
3. i am building my own hawiian sling, i looked at sevral threads and i am not sure about the material i am going to use. Aluminuim? Teak?
4. Again, about the sling, to make a handle or not?
5. Since i am planning to fish all kinds of fish i will tie some line to my rig.
Ill do the "euro" rig, how long to make the line 2,3 meters?
6. how thick should the surgical tubing be and how long should it be?
7. how long should be the barrel?
Thanks alot for you help in advance,
Lior.
Ps. i am not new to free diving, i feel comfortable at 10 meters.
