Posted on FS site but thought I'd post here as well. Caught a 16" grouper in 4.5ft of water out of Keaton beach. Isn't that very unusual ?

Not really. I have caught and lost some that big or bigger in that shallow before. Isn't the net ban wonderful? :grin:

I have caught one or two each of my last 3 trips down to your area, in 4-6 feet. Terrific!

Fished the Chassahowttzak river once with a friend....we caught all kinds of small grouper in less than 8 feet of water..I caught at least 10 that day from 15 to 8" long...we were fishing for trout what a trip on light spinning gear....what a nice trip and you guys are right about the net banning......
