Greetings from St Pete, FL! I'm here for a few days over winter break and had the opportunity to dive a few of the shallower numbers around the area. I can honestly say that the amount of fish has really surprised me. The Viz has been awesome over the last few days with a top to bottom viz in 35fsw. My buddies and I have been going out about 6miles and absolutely killing the hogfish! There is an abundance of hogs here and they are super stupid! There are a lot of really larger size hogfish here and it is not uncommon to see two 16-18" hogs swimming together! Pics attached are taken by two spearos over two days

fishingdude---WOW bro.
You are slayin those stupid gulf fish :attack3: :fishswim:
You are gonna get spoiled over there if you are not careful
Congrats on some very nice freedive fish sir :toast2: -
haha yea these fish are stupid! lol
I think I will get spoiled. I was talking about it with a buddy of mine and he made the point that if we were in Lauderdale, getting that many large hogs would be an amazing day!
As far was fish abundance Gulf coast spearing for hogs definitely beats Ft. Lauderdale spearing. Too bad the viz isn't always good in the gulf
