Moʻolelo — Gear

As long as I can remember I been rigging my fish stringers, or kui, this way. It makes my stringers last very long and can withstand a lot of weight without kinking and curling up. If you're interesting in purchasing a stringer, please email me at contact@venturewetsuits.com , I can make custom lengths and tip sizes.     Tools Needed: Penn Crimper: https://amzn.to/3jP3Ieb 200lb Mono: https://amzn.to/3jI1HAo Line Saver: https://amzn.to/30TvQUu Torch: https://amzn.to/30MaTuU Flush Cuts: https://amzn.to/32XKHzW   Some of some heavy stringers that are still running strong today!

After many dives, many misses & many fish landed you'll eventually have to change your bands on your speargun. You can take it to local dive shop or you can do it yourself once you have all the proper rigging gear. If you're like me, I don't know how to tie my bands good so I called up the boys to kick it and had Troy (@tkmaeda) tie them for me, but at the same time teach me in detail how to change my bands. Next time i'll have to give it a try myself. A message from Troy: *This...

When I first starting diving I only used three prong. It taught me patience and how to stalk and track fish. Like most of us, I started with a yellow fiberglass 3-prong from Walmart. There were way more misses then hits, but every hit felt so rewarding.   Through time in the water I eventually purchased a gun which I used 99% of the time after that. Only till a few months ago I purchased an Evolve Diving 3-Prong I was stoked to give it a shot after all the great things I heard about this 3-Prong. I bought the collapsible 9ft...

For years I've used the Hammerhead Speargun MV3 GoPro mask with blue tint. I absolutely loved that mask, it fit my face really well. It's a low volume mask that felt comfortable on deeper drops and on those deeper drops when the air in your mask compresses, on the way back up to the surface the air expands giving you just a little taste of air that you can breathe on the way back up. I was able to do that each time without wasting any air or water entering my mask. Of course through heavy use, wear and tear,...

As you get better in spearfishing you'll move up from a three prong pole spear to a speargun. Proper maintenance on your speargun will result in keeping your gun shooting strong and accurate. One thing to always maintain is your monofilament line or shooting line on your gun. Having new mono on your gun allows your gun to shoot more smoothly with less friction or chances of getting caught on your trigger release or reel line anchor guide. Through many dives your mono will begin to have creases from normal wear and tear and from wrapping your line around the...
