Harpoon / Flying Gaff Question

[Latimeria]

So, Harpoons are out since you need a commercial license to use one.  I was wondering if a flying gaff was legal even if you put a float at the end?  Does anyone know for sure?  My only search brought me to Bloody Decks and I forgot my login, so no more access.

Anyone know offhand?

You can use harpoons on anything except billfish. So practically makos and bluefin and ocean sunfish.

I am quite certain flying gaffs have no restrictions. Chris used one on his inflatable swords, put it on the internet, and that wasn't what made people mad. So you're good on that if you want the universal big game subduer.
