[QUOTE=crashdive123;76530]Here's the style tip I normally use. It's about 13 inches long (leatherman for size comparison (thanks for that tip Klkak)). As the spear enters, it spreads as you described above. Also, each one of the tines has a small barb about an inch and a half from the tip.
Yup, the one's I made look very similar to that one.
Here's a diagram:Quote:

I make smaller ones for that... ;)
Ah.....frog gig.
Frogs, fish, rocks...... :D
I imagine it would be a little disheartening to wait for 10 years for that fine new spear - you take it out on its maiden voyage - spot a wonderful trout just casually swimming near the shore - you take aim - you let the spear fly - your aim was a bit off - you miss the fish and smash the spear into the rocks - the spear is ruined - you pack up all your gear and look down at the fish - You just wait there mr fish, I'll be back in about 10 years.
Are there tree steroids! Then , then, just maybe I can get him in 6 years!! Ah a plan!
The harpoon I made as a teen looked something like this. I used it on king salmon.
