Fowey Rocks-Spearfishing

Wind, Rain, Heat=Dry Gills....seems like forever since I last hit the water for some spearfishing...the forecast ain't looking too good for the next few days either. So yes I be jonesin to head out, particularly since I plotted some new spearfishing grounds out of Fowey Rocks http://www.lighthousefriends.com/light.asp?ID=704, it looks like a very steep ridge in about 50', abruptly dropping to 70'. I've asked around (a few close gung'ho H&L) about this area and they say its a fish bonanza catching pelagics and reefies...its a transition zone so unless you got your eyes on the scope you'll go right over it, thats a good thing. Another spearfishing spot south of Fowey Rocks also looks promising. Alot of spearfishers say Fowey Rocks is overfished, to a certain extent I agree, but some of the surrounding (read less popular) areas have some great spearfishing holes, you just have to look harder.


Till next spearfishing report, tight bands, straight shafts, and smooooooooth triggers!
