Technical tips:
Main purpose: Large and powerful pelagic fish have the speed and power to tear free during the fight. A blue-water-hunting bungee is introduced to act as shock absorber, dapening the effects of a large pelagics struggle so the spear maintains a solid hold on the fish. It also provides a constant pressure reducing chances of spear dislodgement and helps to tire the fish early in the fight.
2:1 stretch Vs. 3:1 stretch: When hunting Dogtooth tuna or similar pelagic fish that fight near reef or structure, a 2:1 stretch ratio compared 3:1 stretch, offers the diver more control and an increased chance of keeping the fish out of reef.
