I haven't flown in a few years, but was about 10 hours away from getting my private when "life" happened. That sounds like a great idea. Are you flying Cessnas or Pipers?
Oh and I roadrace sportbikes, too, in the MidAtlantic region in the expert division :D. Welcome to the site.
I fly cessna 152s/172s and beechcraft duchess'
Cool - post up if you plan on doing a trip to the Bahamas. I could take a quick flight down to FLL.
they're great over at dixie divers.. talk to joel there, i'm sure you met him if you went out on thursday. i've bought a few of my guns from them. i have the ab biller 48, great gun, will probably last me forever. just make sure to clean it well when you're done. my boyfriend also has an ab biller, a 42, which he brings out in the reef when he's not using his riffe. i believe they're dredging a beach around there so the viz hasn't been too great around but summer is approaching and it will be flat gorgeous beach days everyday:) (with hopes that they finish this dredging ASAP). also, grouper season opens april 1st.. hopefully they'll halt the operations for the season opener;) you're sticking to beach dives? that's what my boyfriend and i do around here in south fla.. just kayaks and paddle boards.. also try out the intercoastal, it's not always as clear but there's some good eating there too:) dive safe ! let us know how it goes.
can you spear in the intercoastal??:confused1:
From Myfwc.com
Spearfishing of marine and freshwater species in freshwater is prohibited.
Possession of a spear gun in or on freshwater is also prohibited.
Within 100 yards of a public swimming beach, any commercial or public fishing pier, or any part of a bridge from which public fishing is allowed.
Within 100 feet of any part of a jetty that is above the surface of the sea except for the last 500 yards of a jetty that extends more than 1,500 yards from the shoreline.
There are parts of the intracostal where that wouldnt fit though right? I can think of a few places where it is salt, not near a bridge and more than 200 ft wide. I think there are limited spots but it sounds like it isn't totally restricted
ur prob right judah, but im sure while ur swimming to little strips of legal area there will be FWC makin waves. I dont think id want to dive the IWC anyway. I may be missing something though
I agree. I was just thinking that it is not all off limits. Between the viz, the boats and the likely pollution, I would most likely skip too.

Ill pass! but I heard a few people do it:@

I have dove a few spots with a SCUBA group and it would have been a nice place to hunt but most of the ICW is a no harvest area as far as I know. And like was mentioned, your taking your life in your hands with all the boats.
Jpilot1, I have a yak and like Judah said most of us do. The plastic navy is a strong fleet. :thumbsup2:
