Re: 2009 FSDA Florida State Freedive Spearfishing Championships
That what the rules state BUT the Gulf rec daily bag limit is 5 grouper. So if you shoot 2 gags, 1 red, you can then only shoot 2 more blacks for a total of 5 grouper. The Gulf rec daily bag limit for black grouper is 5.

Very few are taken but there are some around but mostly past 50ft when you might see one.

There will be an Eye Doctor with a freediving fetish on hand at the weigh in to deal with your backwoods hillbilly types.

Here we go,, this will be interesting. Will the awards ceremony be at Ms Vickys again? I'm trying make sure the correct amount of Mexican spirits are purchased to ensure no one gets thirsty.

I don't think I am going to dive it but if someone wants to put a team together I will take them on my boat.

This is a team event made up of three shooters per team. If your team needs a third shooter or if you are looking to get on a team, please post your info here. I will direct available shooters to this thread.
Good Luck.

Re: 2009 FSDA Florida State Freedive Spearfishing Championships
I am looking to get on a team for this event. I have over 20+ years of freedive spearfishing experience. I was born and raised in Hawaii. I would really like to link up with a couple other guys and shoot this tournament. Please PM me or post so we can get in touch if you need another person. I will be more than happy to answer any and all questions to see if I would be right for your team.
Dive Safe... Tobin

Quote:
Gags - 2/day Gulf, Atl, and Monroe (22" Gulf, 24" Atl and Monroe) Red - 2/day Gulf (increased from 1) and 5/day Atl. Blacks haven't changed. All are included in the 5/day grouper aggregate bag limit. A couple other changes for Gulf: AJs increased size of 30" FL, gray triggers increase 14". Granted these are just state water regs. And may be changing again in the "near" future...probably not before the tourny though.
