I've got all the cressi snorkel gear, decent but not pro level by any means.

That's awesome!!! The pics are probably to big most the time we have to resize them in like paint down to like 50-60% and then they post fine.

I've got all the cressi snorkel gear, decent but not pro level by any means.
I use a hand made custom wood gun, but to start I would recommend a good pole spear or short euro gun (ie cressi, rob Allen etc.). Spearing in HI is tough... those fish are use to being chased and very skittish.
here is picture of my gun

Nice, I went yesterday in the sound but scuba, couldn't see more than about 4 feet, terrible visibility.

I got 3 pole spears at home but they're a bit long for an airplane and packing around, I'll check out the euro guns or maybe 2 or 3 piece pole spears.  I've speared Hawaii before, but it's been a long time, back then I was good at it and out did most of the locals having done so much fresh water river spearing (and being in much better shape  :chuckle: )
