JBL 38-Special Northwest Speargun

[LowDrag]

I have been considering this speargun but I am wondering what constitutes a medium fish? Since I have been diving here in the Pacific Northwest I have seen some good sized Ling Cod that in my mind would be larger than medium. I think the minimum keeper size is 27" but I would have to double check that. Most of the fish I see would definitely be within the size range. So, I guess my question would be, will this gun handle bigger fish too?

• Designed for heavy penetration
• Has an open muzzle, which allows for faster and easier loading of the spearshaft
• Compact model of the Magnum is designed for close quarters and for midsize to small fish
• These guns are most suitable for spearfishing among reefs and rocks where heavy penetration
  is needed but range is not critical
• Hardened stainless trigger
• Spring stainless steel shafts and points
• Cast aluminum handle
• TOTAL LENGTH: 42 inches
• SLING DIAMETER: 9/16 inch
• NUMBER OF SLINGS: 3
• SPEARPOINT: Rotating Twin Spinner Rock Point (#843)
• RANGE: 14 feet

Thanks

I have this gun and it can handle some big togs and blackfish. It's really compact but the 3 bands pack a lot of power. In fact, I seldom string the 3rd band. It's definitely a good product for wreck fishing. Maybe not for open water fishing like in the Gulf but I think for you guys and us in NJ, it's great.
