Spearguns can be set up either with a reel or without. Large fish are a lot stronger in the water than you are, and once you shoot one you need to get back to the surface to breathe.
A reel gun works differently. With this setup, the spear attaches to the shooting line which attaches to your reel line. If you shoot a big fish, you hold onto the gun and let the fish run and take out line from the reel. This is the part of the speargun that I never understood until I actually held my first gun in my hands. Note that there are two common setups, spearguns with reels, and those without. The photos should help, but watching the video above should make it much easier to understand.
The setup is slightly different on a speargun with a reel. The shooting line still hooks over the top of the spear, then back down the barrel and around the line release, then it travels halfway back up the barrel, but there it attaches to the end of the reel line.

The parts of a speargun Just about any speargun will have at least a handle with a trigger, a barrel, and a spear. The speargun shown throughout this guide is my Mako Predator Pro.
In both cases, a trigger fires the weapon, by either releasing the bands or discharging a quantity of air. Impaled fish are retrieved via a line attached to the spear, or -- if the water is suitably clear -- by tracking the fish visually. Legally , no, a harpoon gun wouldn't be a firearm. There's a bunch of criteria that lay out what a firearm is, and harpoon guns don't meet any of them. Even according to the dictionary, which is a much looser term, a "firearm" requires gunpowder to fire.
The Harpoon Gun deals 75 damage if you shoot a player with it, while also pulling them towards you. Harpoons are also easily stored and less likely to impale someone climbing up a tuna tower. For these reasons, the harpoon lets the mate reach a fish that would normally be out of gaff range with a more fluid striking motion. And, the dart causes less damage to the fish's meat than a large flying gaff. Whales shot with modern explosive devices often take several minutes to die, and can take as long as 25 minutes , according to official Norwegian data.
But Japan isn't the only country still hunting whales , in spite of a ban on the practice. Norway and Iceland are still IWC members, but have continued to commercially hunt whales "either under objection to the moratorium decision, or under reservation to it," according to IWC's website. The hand-thrown harpoon has two sets of sharp barbs and is made in two parts, the lily iron, about 5 inches 13 centimetres long, which contains the barbs, and a shaft about 18 in.
The gun-projected harpoon explodes when it has struck the whale, expanding the barbs and killing the animal instantly. The active force on such specifically dimensioned harpoons is kg. Such a gun may have an operational range of up to 10 m. Whale bone or baleen is hard and durable like bone , but also has some flexibility.
In the past, it was used in many every-day items including children's toy, buggy parts, and corsets. Whale teeth were carved or engraved used for art, chess pieces, and piano keys. The tail is the first place to chill down, so it should be the best looking part of the fish. Next, a core sample is taken from right underneath the fin all the way through the belly.
This is the last part to chill and also the last to go bad, making it a great indication of quality. A harpoon is a long spear-like instrument and tool used in fishing, whaling, sealing, and other marine hunting to catch large fish or marine mammals such as whales.
A harpoon can also be used as a weapon. It was heavy but has pretty good range compared to a more basic sword or knife, especially when on horseback. You can even throw it at people far away.
Spear guns are prohibited from carry-on luggage. These items should be packed in checked luggage. Any sharp objects packed in checked luggage should be sheathed or securely wrapped to prevent injury to baggage handlers and security screeners. Never aim or point a speargun at any one. Firing a pneumatic speargun out of water is dangerous, will damage the gun, and will void any warranty. Never load a bent shaft into the barrel as it will scratch the interior surface and the gun will leak out air.
To get comfortable with spearfishing, start out in shallow water and fish above the water line. This does not require total body submersion. There are different ways to perform shallow water spearfishing.
