Hi all,
today I spent few time making a fishing spear, just for having a bit of fun...as usual, my MUK performed great, really...
Here we had a small mountain river, unfortunately empty of fishes (unfortunately for me, luckily for them)

this is what I need

at the end I had a stick long 180 cm and large 2,5 cm about

it's now time to do spear heads, need to obtain a sort of cone...

...so I use small pieces of woods to enlarge the spear heads

well, no fishes at the moment, but some fun :-) it's enough for me!
I like my MUK more and more anyway, and can't wait for the Dereg I ordered any days ago!
Ciao from Italy,
Alfredo

It's better to have it & not need it, than to need it & not have it.

The Scrapyard encompasses the whole of the world as we know it. Good to know wherever I go, there's someone with a Scrapyard knife nearby!

Question: it's possible fishing with a spear in the rivers/lakes in USA and Canada, or it's forbidden?

I'm pretty sure its allowed in certain bodies of water for certain species. You can spear fish for invasive Carp in parts of the Colorado river. I'm thinking about doing it when I visit my folks in AZ.


you can call me digs

Looks fun. I would venture to say if a person really needed to rely on this technique food and preservation is the most important thing at hand.

I'll try to capture any fish on my future trips, and we will see the effectiveness of this spear.
Being a wise guy, I'll take with me also any sandwiches :-)
