Thanks for that. I went to brighton yesterday and shot a couple of what I think were pike (wasn't sure, don't know if we get barracuda down here - they just hover about 10cm off the bottom, and you can just creep up and shoot em sitting) they both wriggled off my spear (borrowed a gun) though - I need a 3-pronger - the 5 doesn't penetrate enough. I shot the first one in the head too - thought i'd stoned him cos he didn't move for a couple of seconds - then went nuts and got away.
I've been trying to convince my slack mates to come down earlier, but I guess i'll just have to go by myself.
I haven't caught any salmon though - they are far too quick, especially for a sling.
Might try Wanthaggi next weekend - thanks for the tips <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
