How often does the fish get off the spear? I know the better the spear / spearer the less it will happen but I'm worried going out my first time that with my mediocre spear if I can't pin him to the bottom for a second or two he might get off.
I know to just let the spear go if you can't reach bottom and let him fight himself out I'm just curious what you guys have to say from experience.
Any hints?
