Good luck. It would be nice if these remaining days of red snapper season correspond with days having light winds and calm seas.

Thanks for reading and leaving a comment.

For Sunday, November 24, the marine forecast called for frigid temperatures along with light winds and calm seas. So I gathered my crew for what might be the last trip to target red snapper for a few months.
