Awesome video Austin! Does your camera have a warranty?!
How do you like the 140 compared to your Ono gun?

Yes, but warranty doesn't cover stupidity. And it was all Balta's fault anyways, his gigantic thumbs opened the housing halfway and then my dumb ass didn't notice it was cracked open and I dipped it in real quick to get all the blood off the housing

The 140 is my new go to gun for yellowtail when they are thick and smaller grouper. I think I stoned like 6/7 of my first shots with it. It shoots like a friggin laser, definetly stoked I have a single band gun for paddys now too.

Thanks. I assumed he was talking about his rail gun, but I just wondered which brand.

Re: Yellowtail Spearfishing Video *New*

Hey man! That morning was awesome, would have been even better with the HD.
Pity about all our cameras and watches
List of death:
2 broken watches
2 floods
Ritchies out of battery
Lots of bloody fish
Nice gun

Oh yeah, clever captions

Oh well we may not have the pictures or video we could have...but we got all the memories...

-Erik

Re: Yellowtail Spearfishing Video *New*

Nice job Austin! That's definitely an interesting part when all the air came out of the fish's swim bladder. I've never seen that much. Are you sure you weren't using a co2 tip?

Looks like just a flopper.

Looks like the bubble trail goes clear back to the muzzle.

Re: Yellowtail Spearfishing Video *New*

I don't agree that the air is from the swim bladder but at the same time I don't have any better theories. I would say it something more to do with the acceleration of the fish causing turbulence in the water and releasing 02 on a molecular level. That seems like too much air being expelled to be from the swim bladder. Plus, the release of air seems to be occurring along the length of the shaft. Can someone smarter than me please clear this up?
