As Mr K Brueington from Spearfishing Specialties says , you have to dig for them.
I was shooting one of his Green Camo 5 Rhinos and I needed all of it.So I started digging in all the holes with my light that I thought a grouper would hang out in and sure enough I see a large tail,ah not round but square .No shot from any angle so I back up and look for a exit area ,yes there he is only a head shot through a angled crack in the wreck.I take my best shot in the wreck and the games begin,after a few minutes of mayhem he settles and I can see my shaft went through both his eyes.Not really good , so I go find my budddy and take one of his 2 guns and head back to Mr Gag.He looks at me and I motion follow, I put a much better second shot in him and he goes nuts again. After the dust settles I reach in with my knife and start tomahawking his hard head .Now I have to get this beast out of a angled crack, was able to finally get a stringer through his eyes and after running low on airand heading up my buddy was able to pull him out the last few inches.
As I was changing tanks to go back down here he comes with my slob, thanks Carl , I think he was more excited than me when he saw the size of him.Great Day out with friends , its cold but they are there go get m.

Nice and thanks, and congrats on your slaying.
As for staying away from your waters, too late already told all the Palm Beach Fluffers to go north, Way North.
Now you can try and contact President Trump to build a wall and keep m out.
But then they will send there children,you know the rest.
Peace out and hope to see you guys in the BBO Tournament.

My dive instructor was out of town when it was good but I would give him credit all day long for teaching me how to put fish in the boat with a speargun. 69lbs
