realistically summer is the time to plan a trip to Fl. the winter is hit and miss vis. due to the constant 10 to 20 mph wind. there are days that are calm, but they are random. i live in key west now but i used to live in west palm beach. I started spearing there.Honestly, (i know some people will beg to differ ) the best spearing is the keys by far! spearfishing is illegal from the beach in Fl., except from long key bridge south, to key west. anywhere else you can spear but you cannot enter or return from any public beach with spearguns. if you can find a PRIVATE owned beach you are good , but you may not spear near docks jetties or pilings near shore. Now that I sound like a cop, you CAN come to key west, get a kayak, and hit nearshore coral heads. There is a youth hostel,(20 bucks a nite or something) Key West is super chill. you can ride a bicycle anywhere,(rent those too) i can give you GPS#s and if the wnd lays down maybe you could get dowm on one of my reef excursions. if you scuba we have killer wreck diving with BIG FISH!! They allow spearing on some local dive boats. Ever heard of Hogfish? hands dowm the best tasting fish . all over the place dowm here
