Do people dive Rockaway Reef?

I just moved from San Diego (originally from Florida) and need a dive buddy. Saw Rockaway Reef on navionics and heard it's a good spot to hook up on stripers, but wasn't sure if it's a dangerous spot for spearing or not.

I've dove a handful of trash piles and artificial reefs, but know nothing about this area.

Anyone out there got a boat I can jump on or crazy enough to jump on my tandom kayak to give it a go? Hit me up! I'll buy the beer afterwards and pitch in on gas if you got the boat! (Picture below is off a tank near the Destin coast a few weeks ago; about 60-70ft)

No, looks like one though huh. My dad got a gig working with the air force doing practice missions down in Florida. Him and 35 other boats are the terrorists running different formations called out on the radio, while fighter jets come down and simulate gunning us down.

You live in the area? I'm jonesing to get in the water! The wrecks off San Diego are about the same distance offshore as this reef. I've noticed I definitely good weather for it to work here though. PM me if you're down to head out one weekend. Or, if you got a boat ride, I'll pitch in on gas and get the beer.
