NZ spearfishing help for Easter weekend

Hello,

I moved to New Zealand from southern California about three weeks ago and I'm going to be staying with some friends in Ohui. I have almost everything I need to spearfish, except a speargun. I have looked into purchasing one, but cant afford one just yet.

I'm hoping someone in NZ can either let me borrow a spare or rent one to me.

I live in the Auckland area near Mission Bay and will be leaving for the coromandel area on Thursday night.

If anyone can help me out I would really appreciate it. Please feel free to call me at 09 578 2475 or PM me.

Thanks,
Omar

How was your trip? What did ya kill?
I was up the top of Coromandel for easter (a couple of hours up the coast from you) the swell was a bitch on the coast but we got out to the islands and did ok. Viz was about 15 metres at Cuvier Island and crappy at 5 at Great Barrier.

The swell was a bitch. I ended up surfing at Whangamata.

Since then I have only been diving a few times. I picked up a really crappy speargun for cheap and have hit up Ohui & Slipper on a much better day, Tauranga bay and have been trying to figure out where to enter for Ti Point.

I have dove Matherson bay, but it says its a reserve so I only dove.

Kill count stands at;
1 Snapper
4 paua
1 John dory
