South-East Florida beach spearing?

Is any beach access left in here for spearos without being harrased by cops?
Fort Lauderdale, West Palm, Boca area?

Never tried to fly one of those, but always wanted to.
I hope that you're own it!
Must be nice to scout reefs and ledges...

It was a little sarcastic from me, those are insanely expensive!
What are you doing for living?

Hiya pilot,

Hit Dania beach in Hollywood, about 3-5 hundred yards from the beach is where the reef starts, never a problem with lifeguards or police

This is my last resort...
Getting bored same place all the time... even sometimes it rewards me with dinner...
I was looking for some ledges where I can patrol for potential cobia passing...
Want to test out my new boogie board...

Thanks anyway!

Re: South-East Florida beach spearing?

didn't know you had a yak, you can easily paddle out from haulover to about 41 st (N-S) out about 1 mile first minor reef line which has an abundance of sealife, PM me if you want to go out on a weekday, the reef line at Dania is the same just it angles in more

Can't on a weekday... weekends are mine, Yak is still on garage's wall, but truck is sold...
Civic need a roof rack or foam pads for kayak... bodyboard is my only option for now.
What do you mean "41 st (N-S)"?
Thanks.

Re: South-East Florida beach spearing?

Try atlantic blvd in pompano. Just start south of the lifeguard towers and head out about 500 yards. Vis sometimes is poor on the way out, but it usually clears up when you hit the dropoff. Depth is about 25-30 feet. Never seen any cobia there, but I usually come home with a hog, snapper, lobster, or mackeral bare minimum. At least it is dinner for me and the wife.

Re: South-East Florida beach spearing?

Haulover to collins and 41 street (Foutainbleau Hotel) reef runs North South quite a ways if your kicking, seguyettes suggestion is also good (part of the Dania Bch reef which is all part of the primary reef system along the east coast, secondary about 1/2- 1 mile further out and tertiary about 3- or so thats how it was simplistically explained to me). Unfortunately the area around, dania is a bit burnt out, but always something comes out...if you find a sofa thrown out grab the foam, quick resolution for the Yak/Civic crisis
