I dive Montauk all summer long, spent a lot of time on the Race, Elbow, Porgy Hump, pretty much everywhere and know of some pretty Low key but solid spots by memory. But i live in North Jersey so the commute sucks, as well as boatless. but i just found out my dive buddy moved out to Cali so it wouldnt hurt to meet some new spearos in the region. Where and how do you guys normally dive?

 

[jimy286]

hey guys,

I'm a newbie too, I live in Brooklyn but spend most of the time in Manhattan. Would love to meet some spearos out there. When does the season start?

 

[STINKYDIVER42]

Though I lived in NY I would drive 45 mins north of the city to the conn. side of the sound. The water was pretty clear there.

[jimy286]

Thought Id post this here if anyone is interested.....

Well bit slow writing about it but.........

Went for a dive on long island south cost. The viz was NICE about 50-60 feet. Picked up a load of nice oysters and mussels every were.

Saw two tog that were a little over the size limit but left them alone as had so much shell fish.

Found it hard not to eat all the mussels raw as they were to be cooked the next day. Some of the oysters were bigger then my hole hand.

Water was 47 F (weeeell cold)
