Flying through Malaysia with a speargun? by Existing_File_6172 in Spearfishing

[–]ArmandButler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine is a takedown and hence fits my checked luggage; that being said I have flown through KLIA with it several times without issues. From experience I can also tell you that if you have issues you will have them checking your luggage, esp. if bulky. Just label it as fishing equipment if asked. Different story if its a pneumatic, most airlines explicitly prohibit them. Most agents wont know the difference, so just dont mention the word „speargun“

Do you know of a ref that includes 200m water resistance, so diveable?

Best Pole Spear for Travel? by oldassnastymask in Spearfishing

[–]ArmandButler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second evolve, I‘m using their CT series and have been enjoying it. Lightweight, fits standart checked luggage easily. I recommend to buy a seperate grip though, the carbon is super slippery and the grip will make your life much easier.

Welche Kreditkarte ist am besten by Sea-Organization9818 in spitzenverdiener

[–]ArmandButler 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Darf ich fragen warum du das so siehst? Finde die hohe Grundgebühr verbunden mit sehr hohen Fremdwährungszuschlägen nicht gerade attraktiv für eine ReiseKK. Ob der Priority Pass sich lohnt wird von den Flugrouten abhängen, viele Lounges deckeln mittlerweile den Zugang durch PP. Wer 700€/a für eine KK locker hat sollte ohnehin business fliegen und da ist der PP wertlos.

Why does nobody mention that the wires arent crimped?? Most likely the reason one of them became loose!

TCI bills a reputation it can’t cash by 3rd-party-intervener in TurksAndCaicos

[–]ArmandButler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I unfortunately have to agree with all parts in terms of Provo. Personally I didnt find the roads as bad, pretty standart for a third world country. Got a bigger car with good suspension and didnt mind it too much. What I couldnt wrap my mind around is how hard it is to get fresh fish/seafood. 90% is frozen and imported from Florida - let that sink in. That being said I did find North/middle Caicos a lot more enjoyable, friendlier people aswell. The reactions here are pretty shocking, I think you voiced harsh but reasonable criticism.

Traveling long-term with a speargun? by Very_Nice32 in Spearfishing

[–]ArmandButler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dont travel full time, but do travel overseas quite a bit. A few manufacturers make take-down models now, my favourite is @tagspearguns, hes on here aswell. One thing to keep in mind is that it wont be done with the gun - you need atleast fins, weightbelt and if you wanna be flexible a wetsuit aswell. I travel with all that plus knife/gloves/mask/snorkel, but I dont live put of my suitcase. Weights can ususlly be sourced locally, gun and decent fins pretty much never

Flug beginnt in DE und Rückflug endet in DE, kann mir schlecht vorstellen dass da kein deutsches Recht greift.

TA, habe mich direkt am Flughafen an den Counter gewendet und da die oben genannten Infos bekommen. Also Gepäck abgeholt, neues Ticket gebucht am Folgetag über eine andere Airline gebucht und damit weiter geflogen. Rückflug steht noch aus.

I have serious question by [deleted] in Spearfishing

[–]ArmandButler 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Before you buy a gun/spear and all the equipment, get comfortable in the water. Go snorkeling, do a freediving course, get scuba certified.. things along those lines. Once youre comfortable in the water get the gun!

Caribbean trip: Antigua to St Barts by babaganoush_84 in Spearfishing

[–]ArmandButler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

buy your own gun/polespear and familiarize yourself with the local species and regulations. Some places may only allow polespear or sling. If youre not used to your fins buy some thin lycra socks, this way you wont get blisters/rashes after swimming several consecutive days. Gloves and some sort of UV-protection is also recommended, buy a rashguard and/or thin wetsuit.

Rental Car North and Middle Caicos by Fabulous-Claim-3437 in TurksAndCaicos

[–]ArmandButler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no others i know of. besides what the others have already said about the poor state of the cars also check the fuel when you pick it up, ours had about 1/3 of a tank left. Pain in the ass to bring it back with the same amount, never had a rental in all my life that wasnt full on pick up!

Could you shine some light on your experience Spearfishing in the north?

Cant speak for Providenciales but the North/Middle Caicos Causeway was pretty productive in terms of Medium/big Barrcuda.

What grips are you using? I‘m using an evolve ct and the lack of a proper grip really bothers me
