Spear Fishing Southern Bay Islands

Just wondering if anyone knew of any decent spots to spear the southern bay arround Couchie, Macleay ETC & what species Im likley to encounter. All this talk about spearing has got the blood pumping.

Mate I'd check your regs before you go, I've got a feeling that most of the southern bay is off limits to spearos, although i could well be wrong.

Waters a bit too dirty around there. Closest good visability points are off G.C. Seaway or from Amity rock wall(not south of boat ramp) to point lookout. Good luck. ;)
