Hi Guys,
Ive just started a new job in Aberystwyth and fancy some early morning spearfishing before work. I'm trying to find a "reasonable" speargun to start off with, looking to hopefully catch some Bass, Whiting, dogfish (ok basically anything I can throw in the fridge and BBQ on the beach after work!). There seems to be a lot of crab pots close to shore so Im hoping to spear some crab/lobster too.

As to the speargun, Im limited in finances so ideally around £50ish. After checking a few threads a 75cm gun seems to be a good choice, maybe a Spetton champion?

Ive checked a few diving websites & also EBay, but either:
1) I cant find ones in my price range.
2) they dont quote prices or offer online buying.

Closest Ive found so far is a FUSIL SPETTON CHAMPION MARK VALENTIN (100 Euro including P&P to UK)

BTW for anyone trying to buy out of the UK I'd recommend http://translation2.paralink.com/
for translations.

Can anyone please point me in the way of a reasonable priced full kit (including the bands, spear etc)? Im on 3 month temp contract so would like to take advantage of living next to the sea asap Thanks for any info!
 
It seems a lot of trouble to order from abroad when what you need is available in the UK with next day delivery
Have you tried searching for Speargun on uk sites via google?
Another option would be the deeperblue shop

I think Dave is your man although he is to modest to tell that!
Check his website (mentioned in his singature) and you will find something that suits your needs.
Cheers
