And then there are stories like this fellow's, who was making $1500/week spearfishing: Jacksonville diver, stricken while pursuing his passion and livelihood, struggles to regain his salt life | jacksonville.comFor those spearing a large Grouper or Amberjack or any 40lbs+ game fish it can be a risk. They can pull you down or wrap you up. Paying $20 for your meal is smarter than loosing your life.
As this accident shows Spear fishing can be dangerous. This is not the first time a fisherman was killed when the line entangled the hunter. Sticking with smaller prey is not a bad decision.
