Hiya
A good friend of mine recently started spearfishing. He bought his gun and it was shipped complete with spare spears, muzzle bungees, mono, etc BUT it wasn't rigged up. So he's asked me to post some pictures on how to go about rigging a speargun.
Step1: Tool needed
- Crimping Tool. Use the best you can afford. Most spearfishing and fishing shops will carry a variety of crimping tools. Using inferior crimping tools is a recipe for disaster. Also FORGET about using pliers or side cutters!!!!
- Crimps. I use 2.2mm crimps as most of my mono shooting line is 2mm.
- Lighter or match's
- Side Cutters or nail clipper for cutting the mono
