Hey everyone, I am new to scuba and wanting to start spear fishing after I get my OW cert. My buddy uses and recommended a pole spear. I found one on Craigslist for $35 with a release handle. I got the handle to go on the pole but it does not hold the spear in place so that I can aim and shoot. Can anyone help out a noob with what might be going on here? I asked the guy I bought it from but he was not much help. Thanks for any info.

Oh and one other piece of info, my spear has about an 8" paralyzer tip on it. The shaft is fiberglass and is splinter free.
