South of Port Everglades today
begin at 830am--------end at 1pm
wind from S at 5mph---from WSW at 12mph
current 1/2mph from N--same
viz 60f in 60fsw-------30f in 30fsw
seas less than 2f -----almost flat
water temp 74F
air 60F 0 clouds overhead ---82F 10% clouds overheadOMG I hope I wasn't the only one that got out and speared this near perfect weekend day
Conditions were so good I went straight out to the 3rd, looked down and made sure to drop my anchor in the sand. The viz was so good that I could see my anchor drop while I sat in the yak. As soon as I slid in the water I rotated a 360 in the water just in time to see 2 BIG macs or kings swim out of view. I made 3 or 4 drops at 60fsw and realized that 60fsw was a little deep for my condition so I paddled across the sand desert to the 2nd reef and shot a 18 in hog and a porgey before I had to quit for the day.awesome buddy, semesters over ill be seein ya shortly

I tried to figure out the mentality that makes your statement true. With obvious exception of our talented few members who do use scuba, I offer the following simple reason. When the average bubble blower puts on their gear they feel something akin to a kid with an all inclusive pass in an amusement park. Meaning they paid their dues, conquered the environment so to speak, and can now do whatever they want in a carefree manner.

That's also what I'm concerned about. A 120 might be a little too long for the reef, but might also be a little too short for bluewater.
I appreciate the Wong suggestions, but would something simple like a RA 120 or 130 with dual 16s not work? I could always use the polespear for the reef if the gun is too long.
Ive never fealt a 120 was too long for the reef, i wouldnt want nething shorter.. its not too combersome even in bad viz, and ive seen, in videos at least, 120 rob allens and similar guns used successfully in blue water (with the right setp of course) also.

South of Port Everglades today
begin at 830pm--------end at 3pm
wind from N at 5mph--from S at 5mph
current 1/2mph from N--from S at 1mph
viz 50f in 50fsw-------45f in 45fsw
seas 1f or less--------same
water temp 77F
air 68F no clouds ---79F 10% clouds overheadToday was a good day. Got off work and pushed my yak out to sea by 830.
Paddled out though 3f beach surf and saw that the viz was better than good on the first reef so I kept going. When I got to the second reef the viz actually looked better as I looked down into the water so I headed East. I got to the 3rd reef and still had viz so I paddled around until I was happy and then dropped anchor, geared up and slipped over the side. As soon as I jumped in 2 macs drifted by and watched me until I almost had the gun loaded then they drifted away before the gun was ready
I made a couple of partial drops to clear my head and ears, then got serious, breathed up and dropped to 55f as the first hog came across the sand to the reef. I love it when those hogs tilt over on their sides and watch me coming <img src= " height="23" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x">
Anyway, ended with 5 hogs and 3 macs and saw a 4f Manta ray.
______________i got the same story from yesterday but more flipping and less fish
-
-
they are endangered, but ive been told shark fishing is legal at night
-
dove delray today after class (from four to dark)
insane great viz and ocean flat w/ barely any current. besides the surf.
: didnt see much in the way of fish, a lot of jacks and ballyhoo, over sand and intermittent rockwork in about 65 feet.
when i got to shore some assholes were shark fishing and had caught a great hammerhead with pups, very sad but some beach goers who werent completely delerious were already calling authorities.
more to the story but i must eat before dieing. -
loook at those beach cams.!! damn school and work,, maybe a quick evening dive is possible. hope someone made it out today
-

Friday and Saturday will be perfect spearing days if you want to head out.
Don't listen to the craft advisory on this one. Seas will be pretty flat.
