Hello there
Since I was a little kid I wanted to go spearfishing and now, being 27 years old I`m planing to realise it -living in Switzerland, where spearfishing is forbidden and having a pretty restricted budget currently because of being a student. However I`m planning to go to Italy next year and also I will visit my little brother in Florida at the beginning of 2017 - so having those locations set, I went and bought myself an Omer Cayman Carbon 90cm - for wich I got a pretty good offer.
Now, let`s get to my question: How the hell do I load this thing? Somewhen I will also have to rig it, but I guess I will figure that out. My problem is the following: If i slide the spear in the "chamber", shouldn`t it lock, making a klicking sound? I`m somehow not able to do this - with the safety on or off...
- I`m suspecting it has something to do with the red little plastic-piece on the line release (see picture attached)..? Do i have to get rid of this thing first? If so, how do I do that, since I can`t really get it off with moderate force (didn`t want to break anything, so maybe I was a bit to soft on it..)
If this questions sounds pretty dumb to you, accept my appologies, but as mentioned I am a complete beginner (and don`t have anyone else to ask at the moment) - you have to start of somewhere, don`t you?
All the best
