Recreational spearfishing (pesca deportivo-recreativa subacuatica) is legal in Mexican federal waters but tightly regulated. A federal sport-fishing permit issued by CONAPESCA is mandatory for every spearfisher, including foreigners. Underwater fishing is allowed only by free-diving (breath-hold / buceo a pulmon); the use of scuba/compressed air or autonomous diving gear (escafandra autonoma) is not permitted for the activity. Only a single rubber- or spring-powered speargun (arpon de hule o resorte) is allowed per fisher, and hooks (ganchos) and tridents/gigs (fisgas) are prohibited. Spearfishing may target only fish (peces), not crustaceans or mollusks (squid excepted), and is capped at five specimens per fisher per day. The activity is prohibited inside no-take marine protected areas (e.g. Cabo Pulmo National Park, Revillagigedo National Park), in/around closed-season (veda) zones, within 250 m of swimming beaches, and within 250 m of commercial fishing vessels. Sale of the catch is forbidden under the sport permit.

Araştırmacı notları
Confidence is high for the federal regulatory framework: NOM-017-PESC-1994 verbatim clauses were retrieved from the official FONMAR reproduction and permit costs/catch limits from the official gob.mx CONAPESCA document. The DOF source page (codigo=5323155) and the live CONAPESCA portal could not be fetched directly (TLS/timeout), so those URLs are cited but verbatim text was taken from the FONMAR and gob.mx mirrors. Note an internal nuance in NOM-017: general sport fishing allows 10 fish/day (clause 4.7), but underwater/spear fishing is specifically capped at 5 fish/day (clause 4.9). Permit fees are indicative and adjusted annually (figures shown reflect the CONAPESCA-01-016 schedule retrieved). Closed-season (veda) dates for grouper/lobster/octopus come from a secondary source and should be re-verified against the current Carta Nacional Pesquera and DOF veda decrees, as they change. Revillagigedo coordinates are approximate (centroid near Socorro Island). Spearfishing is prohibited inside no-take ANPs (Cabo Pulmo, Revillagigedo) and other protected areas managed by CONANP.
