Hey, Chuck. Glad to see you fishing again! I bet you Lee has some great numbers to try and it paid off. I would like to wrestle an AJ myself but it may be too much for us older gentlemen.Tide-Dancer wrote:Went offshore Sat and Sunday with Cecil Williams, Lee Jones and Jerry White. Started out in 60 feet of water and fishing with Chicken rigs hammered the sea bass and grunts. Man what a morning. Small pieces of squid on 3/0 circle sea hooks. Moved to a couple of other spots in close and had a good box of fish. So off we go to the deeper water looking for red grouper. Well we found plenty of red fish but they were snapper. But finely we hooked a couple of fire trucks in 80+ feet of water. Cecil wanted to catch of AJ's for a buddy that wanted to smoke some. (Not my favorite fish. At 72 they will wear me out fast). So here we go to the AJ hole. We were not disappointed and was able to get our limit of 4 on Sat. Only 1 on Sunday.
