Jacksonville spearo with boat and vacancy

    Hey forum,


    My name is Matt. I just got a blue water setup and looking to get into shooting some pelagics here in jax. I have been diving for lobster in the keys every summer for over 20yrs and have done a lot of free shafted spearing down there for hogs in shallow water. Now im looking to target some bigger stuff. I know everyone says the water in jax is too dirty to spear but i think that only applies to the bottom. I have been out to 9mile reefs and wrecks that i can see down 30-40ft so i think shooting some wahoo, dolphin, kings or AJ will be no problem.


    I have a 2003 22ft Proline sport and i always have room for more as long as they have gas $.

    Howdy. Nice to have you on the forum. Good luck filling your boat. I am sure there are spearos in the jax area looking for a chance to get off shore

    i like to spear fish

    The Proline Sport (just Googled it) looks almost like the 22 foot Bradley I had here 8 years ago. Mine was probably a copy of yours. Deep V hull. NIce ride. I had a 150 Yamaha two stroke on it. But it needed deeper water than I have now to come in our canal so I had to sell it for my panga.


    Anyway, welcome and good luck. Post pics and stories.

    My proline has a 200hp 2stroke merc on it. I would like to repower it with an Etec tho. It has more room on it than any 22ft boat ive ever seen without a bracketed motor.

    This has to be the most inspirational intro I've read yet :thumbsup5: I've just recently been talking to someone whether there's spearfishing in Jacksonville at all. Welcome to Speardiver.


    Im trying to get down there and do the immersion school this summer. maybe we and meet up for a day in the water.
