    No, Lingcod are closed, in California, from the end November till April. These lings were shot in November.

    @TheBlackveilbrides44 , I don't have much experience with using the newer JBL guns, but as a child I had a small JBL gun, but I was not fond of it. Here are the reasons why:
    1- the slide ring on the shaft would get stuck and mess up my shot.
    2- I have trouble sighting down the shaft due to the closed muzzle.
    3- the gun was too small for large lingcod and lacked power.
    4- the tip had several extra pieces of metal hardware which reduced penetration.
    Those were the reasons why I choose OMER.

    Hey Ray,
    Yes, the some of the other videos I posted were shot with the Liquid Image mask.
    The liquid image 322 HD wide angle mask can be purchased online for about $350.00 online or at some dive shops.
    Amazon, B&H photo, etc. are all selling Liquid Image Masks. I know that west Marine sells some of their products, but I am not sure if they sell this model.
    If you still can not find one online, feel free to contact me through my website and I will help you. spearfishingisnotacrime

    My light is does not have a red beam. My camera had an issue at the time where it would sometimes turn the film red when exposed to dramatic contrast shifts. After the firmware update, the issue was gone. I dont know of any companies that sell a red dive light, but friends of mine have added red filters to the lens to create red light.

    ifishanyweather, I have never used the Cayman Carbon, but I know that many people in hawaii like to use that gun. It is very light, maneuverable, and well manufactured. It seems that people prefer to use it in the larger size guns (100cm and larger).

  • @occamsracer
    @occamsracer 13 лет назад

    That's a lot of good stone shots. I find that when I have my head cam on, where I'm looking when I'm sighting down the gun is different than when I'm just looking around. You don't seem to have this problem, did you have to correct it during use? Or you just naturally have your head at the same angle when you're aiming?

  • @freedivingdan
    @freedivingdan  13 лет назад

    The new camera #322 has a 105˚ viewing angle. The older liquid image cameras had a 54˚ angle.
    I will never go back. Wide angle is perfect for spearfishing.

  • @freedivingdan
    @freedivingdan  12 лет назад

    Honestly, if you like O.ME.R spearguns, I think you will like the new O.ME.R -ET (enclosed track) gun. If you want to hunt the reef, I would use a 110cm or 115cm gun. This allow you to also transition into the blue every once in a while to shoot bigger fish.

  • @freedivingdan
    @freedivingdan  11 лет назад

    The song credits are at the end of the video.
    Also, you may want to get a longer omer speargun for open water spearing if the visibility is good.

  • @freedivingdan
    @freedivingdan  11 лет назад

    They have both left and right hand grips, or you can get the standard universal grip. I believe that the ET comes with the standard handle on the gun, and the right hand grip comes as an accessory which you can put on it.

  • @freedivingdan
    @freedivingdan  11 лет назад

    I have not used the wrist mounted knives yet. I like my knife on my weight belt, and my flashlight on my left wrist. I don't want anything on my shooting arm, as it would become a point of entanglement with the shooting line or floatline.

  • @freedivingdan

    I was using the Cayman ET 95cm gun. I have it rigged with 250 pound mono, connected to a pigtail swivel, and dyneema 2.0mm line on the reel.

    Dan, On this Video @ 8:46 on the timeline there are a crap load of fish just waiting to be speared.
    Where is this Dive spot at my man? Thankx!

  • @freedivingdan
    @freedivingdan  13 лет назад

    was using 3 different guns in this video:
    Omer HF Camo ET (Enclosed Track) - 95cm
    Omer Cayman HF2 - 80cm
    Omer Cayman 65cm
    All these fish were speared in central California.

    @crazdsnowboardr 11 лет назад

    Excellent Vids, I know you can't give us exact locations, so let's go a bit wider, are most of the clips from Northern California or Southern California?

  • @freedivingdan
    @freedivingdan  12 лет назад

    @spearo094, Without the reel all OMER guns float without the shaft. If you add a reel, the guns ability to float has to do with the amount of air in the barrel vs. the size and material type of reel you use. I have the OMER match 30 on my 65cm gun and it floats. On my HF guns, I have OMER match 50's and they float. If you upgrade to the aluminum match reels, this may change the buoyancy characteristics. You may have to contact the company for further details or experiment yourself. Good luck.

  • @kwakp8man
    @kwakp8man 12 лет назад

    Thanks Dan! I appreciate it. Is O.ME.R guns just as good as an AB Biller or a Riffe or better? Sorry I'm new to this. Just looking for info. Thanks

    I am going to buy a new speargun. Im debating between a JBL 38 NW special and the OMER hf2 80cm. Im gonna be pretty murky and cold water in tight conditions with alot of kelp and rocks. I need a honest opinion and you seem like the person to ask. Thanks.

    Hey Dan, I hear your on the US world team again, congrats. Hey man, What size would you recommend for Socal shore dives where I'm mostly diving reefs and peeking my head into holes and caves? I've only got 110's right now that I use out in the forest, but now my friends got me obsessed with poking my head into the holes and crevasses

    ive been looking everywhere for your divelight(red beam) or a simialar one
    i was wondering if u just bought a normal dive light and switched the bulbs?
    they have one at my local dive shop with a red beam but they want like $760 for it which is BS...
    any advice would help, thanks alot and goodluck hunting

  • @freedivingdan
    @freedivingdan  12 лет назад

    @FishHuntCook , I am sure O.ME.R would be happy to hear those words!!! The gun I am using is a 95cm gun. Great for Cen-Cal on clear days, or costal diving down in So-Cal. They make this gun in 80cm all the way up to 130cm. Happy hunting!

    @davisbahia 10 лет назад

    how deep do you think you have to dive to shoot lings and other rockfish? I'm just starting spearfishing, but i have been diving and slinging since i was four. (I'm twelve) i have also been lobster diving. if i can hold my breath for 1:30 seconds, what do you think i should be targeting? thanks

  • @kwakp8man
    @kwakp8man 12 лет назад

    I know you dive for O.ME.R so of course you would say they are great guns. I really want to get in to spearfishing and obviously need a gun. I would be spearfishing in the keys (Islamorada) Probably to shoot hogfish. What kind of gun would you recommend out of the O.ME.R. line or any company? I'm Not on a budget. I own a O.ME.R. Bandit so I know I like the company. Just don't know about their guns. If they have any U.S. made stuff I would prefer this, if not that's fine. Thanks Dan.

    What are your thoughts on the omer kanaloa?? I'm using it on the open reefs of Hawaii where I need range and accuracy... PLEASE RESPOND

    • @freedivingdan
      @freedivingdan  5 лет назад

      The Kanaloa is honestly one of the best spearguns ever created. It is a lightweight workhorse with good power and perfect for reef hunting. It is very accurate and maneuverable. There is also a new gun called the carbon Invictus. it has a big more range and speed, but the cost is higher. I like the canal for guns up to 100cm, then I switch to the Invictus for anything bigger. I watched my Hawaiian buddies kill big yellowtail and marlin with the carbon Invictus 130cm a couple months ago.

  • @freedivingdan
    @freedivingdan  11 лет назад

    This is in Cen-Cal

  • @freedivingdan
    @freedivingdan  11 лет назад

    The limit on rockfish is 10. but the total limit on fish is 20. So If I already have 10 rockfish, I can shoot perch. Also, rubber lip perch taste great, and they can sometimes be challenging to get.

      I usually keep 2 or 3 on my belt stringer and regularly offload them to my kayak or dive board.
