Discover the Thrill of Spearfishing

If you're a fishing enthusiast seeking a more dynamic and exhilarating experience, consider adding spearfishing to your list of hobbies. Spearfishing combines the athleticism of freediving with the excitement of hunting, allowing you to catch fish using specialized spearguns. If you're new to the sport, there are a few different types of spearguns to explore.

Key Information About Spearfishing

Spearfishing requires a specialized license and a solid understanding of local fish and game laws, which can vary by location. Always review local regulations to ensure your spearfishing activities are legal and safe. Safety is paramount in spearfishing; always be aware of your surroundings, including the presence of sightseers, scuba divers, or snorkelers.

Types of Spearguns

Band-Powered Spearguns:

Band-powered spearguns use thick latex tubing to propel the spear. These guns fire almost silently and allow for adjustable power by varying the number of bands used. They maintain consistent power regardless of depth but tend to be larger and bulkier than pneumatic spearguns.

Pneumatic Spearguns:

Pneumatic (air-powered) spearguns feature a thicker spear within an internal barrel. A pump increases the internal pressure, loading the spear for firing. Pneumatic spearguns are more compact, making them less likely to snag on coral or rocks. However, they lose power at greater depths due to the reliance on compressed air.

Trusted and Reliable Brands

When choosing a speargun, it's wise to go with a reputable company known for quality and safety. At Freediving Warehouse, we carry spearguns from top brands like Pathos, Salvimar, Rob Allen, and Riffe, all renowned for their craftsmanship and reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you need a license to use a spearfishing gun?

Licensing requirements vary by location. In some areas, spearfishing falls under local fishing laws, requiring traditional fishing permits. Specific regulations often dictate which species can be targeted and when, so always check local laws.

What materials are used in spearfishing guns?

Spearfishing guns are made from various materials, including carbon fiber, aluminum, nylon, fiberglass, stainless steel, and latex. Spears are typically made from carbon fiber or stainless steel, while the gun body is often constructed from fiberglass or aluminum for strength and lightweight performance. Some guns use rubber or latex bands, while others operate with pneumatic mechanisms.

How do spearguns work?

Spearguns launch a spear shaft using the tension of stretched bands or compressed air. Pulling the trigger releases the built-up tension or air pressure, propelling the spear through the water toward the target with minimal resistance.

How far will a speargun shoot underwater?

The range of a speargun underwater typically varies from 10 to 30 feet, depending on factors like water depth, current, and the spearfisher’s skill. Narrow-diameter spears travel farther due to reduced water resistance, while wider shafts generally have a shorter range.
