suggestions please!!!!

[danshayler]

Hi! Im after a new speargun for the summer, my current one is pathetically un-powerful and quite innacurate. In my first summer last year i bagged some Pollack and a couple of small Bass but this summer i really would like to catch a BIG Bass!
So, can you please give me your opinions/suggestions based on my requirements, Thanks.
1) Ive got around £120 to spend but could go more for the right one.
2) Quite powerful, say 18mm bands. (dont want a pneumatic)
3) Accurate, so id like one with a guide rail and articulated wishbone.
4) Id also like one with reel included.
5) Above all, good quality, no matter how much i clean my current one after use it still corrodes and the trigger still sticks etc.
6) All my fishing is off the Cornish coast, U.K. in reefs, rocks, seaweed, kelp etc, fairly shallow with medium vis so im thinking around 75-85mm in size??

Thanks in advance everyone. Dan

Omer Cayman HF Camo or HF2 is the way to go

I am no expert but I have been using a mares phantom fv 75cm. They are reasonably priced and good quality. I have Not had a problem with mine in the twelve months I have owned it, it's been a great starter gun for me and it performs perfectly well in my opinion but that's based on my own experiences.

How about the Picasso Scorpion rail at Scubastore?

^^^^^^^^^^^

I'll agree with that - Omer build quality, in my experience, is very good for the money.

If I was on a budget, the Cayman Camu is the exact gun I'd get! Good choice!

A nice speargun would be a Beuchat Mundial. You can buy a reel with it and set it up. Nice versatile speargun.
