Spearfishing my 1st African Pompano || M35

Greetings everyone, in this episode, Virgil takes us out for 2 days of epic Spearfishing and Freediving in West Palm Beach, FL. We came up short on day 1 with several shots on fish but almost none landed. On day 2 we started off slow and things weren't looking too good. As the day progressed we ended up landing a huge African Pompano, an Amberjack and a Yellow Jack. Enjoy the episode everyone!

Question...I am a new spearo, and I thought one could not spear African Pompano? However, I noticed that rule apparently only applies in 'state' waters? I am assuming perhaps you were in federal waters, but I'm just curious if I understand the rules properly.

Hey Matthew, thanks for your comment. Yes, African Pompano are supposed to be caught by hook and line in state waters. They are allowed to be speared as long as they are in federal waters.
