Buddy or a group of divers to spearfish with in New Jersey (maybe Long Island)

[adriani99]

Hello everyone,
I am an open water diver with about 60 dives and I would like to start spearfishing.
I am looking for someone who has done it before, and has experience with the sport. My regular buddy wants to do it, but he also has never done it before, and I don’t believe in “learning the hard way”.

I prefer shore dives since boat trips are kind of expensive (for my budget), and I would like to go maybe once a week or more as the water temperature will go up.

I dive semidry 7mm, with single 80cc and 40cc pony.
I guess I could go up to one 120cc if I need to.
I have a drysuit, but I would like to do about 20-30 dives at Dutch Springs before I take it in the ocean.

I would love to hear about a club or a group of divers that are doing this on regular basis.

I live central/northern New Jersey, and I assume I need to drive a little to the diving sites.

I can be contacted directly at:

If you can make it to the Ocean Wreck Divers Flea Market in Tom's River, NJ on Sunday Feb 19 you can meet a lot of the local divers and find someone to team up with.

Jeff, I went to the scuba flea market, but everyone was busy buying and selling stuff. No one wanted to make friends with me
