Re: Poll:How deep do you actually spearfish?

Although I blend trimix in my garage and I use it for doing occasional salvage work, my spearfishing is at 120 ft or less using 32% up to 38% nitrox.

I shot this grouper yesterday in just 70 ft and less than 5 miles off the coast. The cost of fuel (around $200 a trip) to reach deep water (deeper than 130 ft) keeps me within 20 to 25 miles of Destin Pass.
