i went quite a distance when i was down, and you would have to be pretty careful with boats/current. I'd advise you to try spearing the south-east side of the Bahia Honda bridge. Trying going around slack tide. I've taken some nice hogs there. Make sure you're a hundred yards or so out and dont go near the channel. Your best bet is to have the sea wall behind you, i find that even if the current is ripping it wont affect you as much.

Hope this helps,

We ended up not putting into the water. The weather was just no good. I did however jump into the water close to the shore. I was surprised to fin school master snapper right in the rocks on shore. None were big enough, and I wasn't spearing that close to shore, but it was cool to see them.
