Hello!
Im a freediver begginer and a spear fishing newbi. Around a month a go a build a "Hawaiian sling" the idea was to get fishes with a thing I made myself. Now i dont know if what i did is correct.
Here are the pictures:
The band has 70 cms long. And the shaft is a 1/4 and 123 cms long.
I made the secure thingy on the top by myself with some old lamina i found.
HERES THE PROBLEM:
So i go fishin and if i hit a fish bigger than 1 pound usually i lost it. I mean i hit the fish and he start moving desperately and get a away of the shaft somehow. Maybe the secure thing is not securing at all? The secure thingy move softly in the shaft.
I dont know whats wrong im kinda desperated today i just hit 2 good fishes (around 2 or 3 pounds) and let them wooded because i couldnt keep up to get another shot. I dont like to kill the fish and dont take them home.
Is there something bad in my rig so i need to correct. Maybe is my shooting technique? The band? The shaft?
ANY help would be great.
