I have gone spearing several times in Mexico with a guide. I recently found out that I can take my gun with me in a checked bag and not having more than 2 bands. I have also purchased a permit for the week we will be there. The last time I fished Coz, we were right off the shore close to the Melia, maybe just a hair North. Has anyone shore fished there alone? If its not protected, and you have a permit, wouldn't this be ok? Any thoughts?
