CORAL GABLES, Fla. (WSVN) -- A man has been hospitalized with a wound to his arm after his friends said he was attacked by a shark.A friend of the victim said the men were out spear-fishing about two and a half miles out from Elliot Key Wednesday morning. The friend said the victim caught a barracuda and when he reached out to get it, a shark believed to be a 12-foot long bull shark bit his arm.
The man was transported to South Miami Hospital in unknown condition.

got a nice hog today with scott and steve. 22 inches. nice fish for the first reef
-
fishingdude----Congratulations on a great hog for a beach dive :thumbsup2:
sdeisen---I know that water is cold. Great job hanging tough in the cold waters. Glad that you guys are finally having some good seas and viz.
Something that some spearos,( and especially scuba spearos) may not realize is that our freedive suits have to keep us warm for hours and hours in the water AND at the surface. Scuba spearos make one or two dives for an hour each or so, climb back onto the boat and change into nice warm clothes.
Freedivers generally are IN the water for hours and hours, never getting out until the day is over. And while in the water hunting, freedivers spend 90% or so of their time at the surface where the air tempature can be 45F in our area.
I don't like being cold in the water because:
1 Being cold decreases my breathhold time and fatigues me sooner.
2. Being cold for an hour or so is a lot different than being hypothermic for 6 hours.
3. Being cold for an hour or so is a lot different than having an accident and ending up in the water overnight like has happened to a friend of mine:@
Please wear enough GOOD rubber in this weather brothers.
Hope this helps -

Anyone get destroyed from jellyfish today shore diving
? I was stung about on every spot not covered by my suit even my mustache. But there where a lot of good size fish out though.
-
yeah was swimmin through the stings all day but only in spurts here and there
-
Saw a ton of mackerel up in Boca, I know you said you liked them, but I went this afternoon before work and it was deceptively choppy so I keep drinking water and was too noisy to get close enough to them.
I did get a nice margate that may be a current record breaker :thumbsup2: I gotta weigh it, if I can find a scale.
-
Pargo ruso :thumbsup2:
-
nice mackeral are without a doubt,, saw a very nice one today but he was on top of his game.. let us know about the margate.. ive seen some big ones also lately

By the time I got out there after work scott had already made a very nice find (I'll let him tell it)
At aprox 10am the viz dropped to almost nothing as the inlet tidal wall rolled south and engulfed us.:(
I lucked out and shot 1 time and got a nice 31in mac with the very first shot with my brand new Tin Man/ hau ETPG :yay:
Moving Target got a nice hog and I'm hoping flamenguru did good as well.
Weather was GREAT for the middle of January.
Like sdeisen said "hau you are stoked" :excited1:
What a relief to get back out into the water after surgeryPS--there was even aprox 2doz beach buns to greet us back onto shore :bouncinboobs:
