Post by Capt. Dave »

The weather cooperated last weekend and we found plenty of legal amberjack on the artificial reefs. Diamond jigs worked extremely well with bucktails and plastics working good.

Grouper fishing was good and we managed eight keepers in 60' of water using cigar minnows with another 25 juveniles released for another day.

April and May mean good days, a ton of bait, and a lot of grouper snapper, cobia, kings, pompano, spanish to name a few.

The weather looks good for this weekend and I can't wait to fish!

Waterdog, thanks a lot, that was a superb sequence of photographs, almost as good as a video.
Any idea how much it weighed ?

The guess is about 70....

It was awsome to be there to see that kind of fish in our "local" waters and to be that close to boat that I was called over to take the picts.
