 Hi Daryl, JC, Emil & I took a day of from work last Friday.....We spotted a single frigate flying on the horizon about 15 miles out on the big blue. We gave chase and jumped in to find a school of Mahi cruising below! We each got 2 and just swam with them for a while. A great day was had by all, and I wanted to thank you for a beautiful gun. Aloha & Mahalo, Gerald |

Hi Daryl, This is a 30 kg
dogtooth tuna caught here in the Philippines last May. It was the start of
the dive when I saw this beauty....close ranged head shot. I use an Ono gun
with 5/16 by 72" shaft. |
 Daryl, Just wanted to let you know how happy I am with my new Nor'easter Hybrid. I can't be happier. Easy to dive with, even in poor vis, powerful enough to go right through bass and accurate for the smaller fish. Thanks. Joe Klinger, South Kingstown, RI |
 "Here is JC (he just bought an MG special from you) and myself (Gerald de Brujin) after a successful day of freediving in Miami. We are 2 happy customers. It was the first time JC shot the gun, and he managed to land some respectable Miami snappers. Needless to say, he is very happy with his gun." |

.JPG) "I really loved the new gun and the shafts. Freeshafting was such an awesome experience. I initially thought that the gun might be unwieldy for me, but it was most assuredly not. I'd never used a mid-handled gun before, but I certainly didn't notice the difference and, most importantly, neither could those fish. The gun was beautifully balanced and tracked incredibly well in the water. I picked up my biggest hog to date - 21.5 inches. Mahalo, Andrew" |
 Ed Walker with his new Florida Freeshafter! Good catch, Ed.

"I looked up and saw a good sized yellowtail coming right at me just below the surface! Not sure about the penetrating power of the 9/32" shaft I decided to make a mid-body shot and hope for the best. As it was, the shaft almost strung the fish just above midline, midbody and I was on! Thanks Daryl for making this versatile speargun."...Joe Kalohi, LA Fathomiers

 "Here's a picture of a pair of bulls taken with my Ono gun and Aimrite slip tip. I love the gun, and I haven't missed or lost a fish with the new slip tips... very accurate and good holding." Willie Mahin from Hawaii
From Joe and Charles Ngyuen in California....nice fish using hybrid and Ono guns. |
 "This has now become my favorite gun! Diving in the lee of Catalina Island (Rock quarry) working against current and bad viz, a pair of yellowtail came in out of the haze and didn't want to hang around. I was down, lined up and took the far shot. Striking the fish solid, he gave me a work out before wrapping up in the kelp at around thirty feet. The crew on board was happy to have some fresh Hamachi Sashimi again. Mahalo for the quality and friendship, Phil Polanco" |
 Phil Stevens, Anne Doherty, and Dave Biron with striped bass in Rhode Island...."We all used your guns and thought you might like a photo. Thanks again for your support of our Junior event!"

"Hey Daryl, Just wanted to let you know that my buddies and I are loving our guns. The extra power and accuracy is a big plus when you're dropping in on big fish territory. I'm not sure if I sent you this pic of a one of the first big boys to taste the wonger. He went 41lbs. Cheers, Scott Nunn" |
"Darren and I (Elton Ushio) took my cousin and his newlywed wife (both from LA) diving on Friday. About an hour into the dive, I saw a large ulua swim under a shelf just 30 feet deep. I dove down and stoned it with a shot to the head. Had I missed the instant kill-shot, it would have been a wild ride...and/or a bent spear! Mr. Ulua was 63 pounds, taken with the Wong hybrid gun. Everyone had a blast!"

 David Biron writes...."Here is a photo of yesterday's trip. I fished with Lt Colonel Steve Manning who recently reported to the war college here in Newport. He said he was schooled by Soney Tanabe and has met you before. He was a very competent diver as you can see. We took three 40lb bass and one 37."

"Hi Daryl, I'm the guy whose gun you fixed after it fell off the roof of my car last year right here in Hawaii. The gun is working as good as ever now! Here is my second biggest catch ever. It's only 14 pounds but it was still exciting for me! Thanks again! Aloha, Chuck Williams" |
