H all,
I have decided to dry-barrel mod my Seac 90 Hunter (same as an Asso, newer looks) for a free shaft. Will go with either STC or Tomba, still undecided on that one.
But I need to find some good corrosion resistant spears first. My options are limited to what a few affordable online stores near Denmark is offering, so perhaps some of you have thoughts on the following spears:
Omersub, New America, 6.50/6.75mm (also "old" America in same thicknesses which is a bit cheaper)
Seatec, Extreme, 6.5/7.0mm
Salvimar, Torsion 2, 6.5mm
Salvimar, Squalo Sandvik 6.5/7.0 mm
I can also get Rob Allens in 6.5 and 7mm (but I have read that they rust?)
Also, if you have thoughts on the thickness, I am all ears. I'll be around reefs hoping for snappers but may also look for smaller pelagics, like Yellowtails (Kingfish) and GTs. Not looking for monsters at all, maybe 4-5 kgs tops.
All best,
David
