Hi from Santa Barbara, CA, USA

Nice forum.
Maybe thread hunting will help me figure out how to run the line for the reel on my Omer gun...
Cheers All

The Spearfishing subforum would probably be a good place to start, or the search function.

Maybe it would.

And maybe Bat Ray's suggestions will help.

And maybe a smoother introduction will make others more willing to help.

Most of us are only human.

Well I guess maybe I need some practice.
I didn't realize my post was so rough.

But thanks Batray.

OK, maybe its just me. But most people say something like "how do I run the line for the reel on my Omer gun…"

Maybe they will get a reply telling them to hunt threads before bothering us, but maybe they will just get an answer from someone telling them how to run the line. Why not hope for the best instead of suggesting that you will be flipped off?

It seems sort of negative to suggest up front that people will tell you to do a search instead of just answering your question. If someone tells me that he doesn't think I'll answer his question, then I won't be inclined to disappoint.

I've answered a lot of questions when I thought my answer might be of value, but only when I thought the person actually was looking for an answer.

Anyway, please go ahead an enjoy DP. It has a lot to offer, and I promise to stay out of any other threads that you may initiate.

If you re-read my post you might find that I simply made an off-handed comment about what I hoped to achieve here when I have some time to do some digging. I certainly did not mean to provoke anyone.
Happy Hunting.

OK, sorry I misunderstood.

Now, since this is the Introductions forum, why not introduce yourself. SCUBA diver/freediver, newbie or veteran, etc.
