Hi Paul, welcome to the forum. Nice gun, i can remember when they were latest bit of kit on the market & double that price!
It might be a bit long but probably great for clear days in Cornwall.

Thanks for the reply fox fish I have bought the 90 cm so a tad smaller than the one in the link ive just got to fathom how to rig it when I get it but can't wait to use it I was wondering about making some targets for the sea if sport wasn't so good i know some good fish holding spots but wether I can shoot them is a different story I will try and post my picks up of any bass or pollack I manage to spear

Good idea but the key to shooting fish is getting close to them!
I hunt in the weed a lot & usually shoot bass with the spear tip about 2" from the fish, target practice is a really good idea though as it also gets you used to loading the gun. good luck.......
