Choosing the right speargun depends mainly on your hunting style, your experience and the location where you hunt.<\/p>\n

Labrax spearguns belong to the upper mid-range of spearguns<\/strong> and are designed so that every hunter can find a speargun that suits their needs \u2013 from a simple and manoeuvrable gun for hunting in holes to an advanced invert roller system.<\/p>\n

At H2O Shop we have four Labrax models<\/strong> available: Focus, Eleanor Expert, Eleanor Master and Smart Invert Roller.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Labrax Focus is the simplest model in the range.<\/p>\n

The speargun has parallel bands, and the line is attached directly to the barrel. It is available in lengths of 30, 45 and 60 cm.<\/p>\n

Thanks to its short and manoeuvrable design, it is especially suitable for hunting in holes, crevices and murkier water<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It is also suitable for complete beginners who are trying spearfishing for the first time and want something as affordable as possible, because they don’t yet know whether they will take up the sport more seriously. It is also great for experienced hunters who want an extra gun for hunting in holes.<\/p>\n

Labrax Eleanor Expert is a big step up from the basic Focus model.<\/p>\n

It is intended for beginners who want to buy a more serious gun for their first bigger catches<\/strong> right from the start, one that will serve them for years, as well as for experienced hunters looking for a reliable and versatile gun, mainly for the agguato (stalking) technique in shallow water.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It has an aluminium barrel with an integrated rail, an open muzzle, an 18 mm Primeline band, a reel with Dyneema line and a shock absorber, and comes ready to use. It is available in lengths of 60\u2013110 cm.<\/p>\n

Labrax Eleanor Master is an upgrade of the Expert model.<\/p>\n

The base of the gun is similar; the main difference is in the bands \u2013 the Master has two 15 mm Primeline bands, which gives more power and a longer range.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Master also has an integrated rail, an open muzzle, a reel with Dyneema line and a shock absorber, and is available in lengths of 75\u2013110 cm.<\/p>\n

It is intended for hunters who want a bit more power and range from a classic gun.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Labrax Smart Invert Roller is the most advanced model in this range.<\/strong> It is an invert roller with a pulley system that allows easier loading, a longer band stretch and better power transfer.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another advantage of the system is its very low recoil,<\/strong> which contributes to greater shooting accuracy<\/strong>, and despite its power the gun is light and manoeuvrable. The details on the Smart roller are very well thought out, and wrapping the line and loading take only about 10 seconds longer than with classic guns. Almost all beginners are delighted that handling the Smart Invert roller is almost as simple as handling a classic gun.<\/p>\n

The Smart Invert Roller is intended mainly for more advanced hunters, but it can also be a great choice for a beginner who wants to invest in a more advanced system from the start and use the gun for many years.<\/p>\n

It is available in lengths of 75\u2013110 cm.<\/p>\n

How to choose the right speargun length?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

When choosing the length, the most important things are:<\/p>\n

– where you hunt (Istria + Kvarner lengths up to approx. 90 cm; Zadar and further south approx. 100 cm),<\/p>\n

– at what depths you hunt (depths up to 7 m up to approx. 90 cm; depths over 10 m approx. 100 cm),<\/p>\n

– which hunting technique you use (shallow agguato up to approx. 90 cm; aspetto and occasional deeper agguato approx. 100 cm),<\/p>\n

– what fish you hunt (for mullet, salema, two-banded seabream, smaller gilthead bream and sea bass a speargun up to approx. 90 cm; for regularly hunting nice gilthead bream and sea bass a speargun of approx. 100 cm),<\/p>\n

– how much experience you have (beginner up to approx. 90 cm; if you regularly catch a few fish, approx. 100 cm),<\/p>\n

– and also the body size or reach of the hunter (for a hunter up to 175 cm tall a speargun up to approx. 90 cm; over 180 cm tall, a speargun of approx. 100 cm).<\/p>\n

Before deciding, think about how you will hunt most often and choose the gun that best suits your characteristics.<\/p>\n

Shorter guns are generally more manoeuvrable<\/strong> and practical for hunting in holes and confined spaces<\/strong>, while longer ones allow more effective hunting at greater distances<\/strong>. With roller systems, choosing the length is especially important depending on your hunting style.<\/p>\n
