St Augustine Florida Spear Fishing
Hello,
my name is Rick Ginn and I am the editor and creator
of this site, which is still under construction. The
purpose of this site is to provide people interested
in spear fishing in Florida with helpful
information. I have been diving and spear
fishing in Florida for about 10 years. I live in St.
Augustine Florida, where I do most of my diving, but
I also enjoy diving in the Gulf, the Florida Keys,
and Daytona.
The majority of natural ledges off of St. Augustine
are around 40 miles out from the St. Augustine
inlet. The ledges are anywhere from 120-130 feet
deep. I prefer to dive the inshore wrecks and the
artificial reefs which consist mainly of culverts,
barges, and plane wrecks. The inshore dive spots are
around 60-80 feet deep.
Offshore we usually get lobster, grouper, and
snapper, while inshore grouper, cobia, red snapper
and flounder are more common. Trigger fish, shephead,
and mangrove snapper are common everywhere. I'm not
a hard core spear fisherman, I mainly just enjoy the
sport. On a good day though we usually bring in a
good looking box of fish.
