Chris,
The paralyzer tip works well for flounder and Black Sea Bass.
Pole Spear is no good for Stripers or Tog.
Put nail polish on your pole spear to mark 18" the legal length for summer flounder and one at 12.5" for Black Sea Bass and Winter flounder. These lengths can change.
Under water makes the fish much larger, the founder will let you lay the pole within 6" away without spooking to get a good measurement.
Never shoot a fish unless you say "holy shit". Above the water the fish shrinks a lot.
We don’t want to give spear fishing a bad name.
Be care and good luck.
Greg
