Everyone says that scamp grouper inhabit waters deeper than 200 ft. So that’s where we headed on yesterday’s trip out of Apalachicola. We made it about two-thirds of the way to the area we wanted to explore, but we decided to stop and fish in 140 ft. while waiting for storms further out to dissipate...

hey. really neat to see those pictures. what did the bottom machine look like on the loser j hole. thanks for sharing Unfortunately, I neglected to take a picture of the sonar image over the LoserJ hole. What I can tell you is that in most cases a snapper tree will have more of a spike appearance o...

I use a $40 GoPro knock-off because I would cry if I lost a GoPro on the bottom.

Thanks for reading and for your feedback.

On Tuesday July 26, the mission was to catch a limit of red snapper for the three of us on the boat and to take more underwater photos and videos. I hope you all enjoy the underwater pictures. As usual, we picked up the boat at Martin Marine and launched the boat at the Carrabelle River. With red gr...

Thank you for reading the post, and thanks for the feedback.

I fear that if you limit a person to one gag or one red snapper, more small ones will be released to die or eaten by sharks and porpoise as people hold out for a big one.

We were at a depth of 100'+ and we had one gag grouper that you can see in my other post, "What Does a Good Fishing Hole Look Like?"

Sonar images don’t give me a good understanding of what the bottom looks like or what makes a spot a good grouper or snapper hole. My attempt at a solution to this problem has been to lower an underwater action camera, a cheap one, to take some videos. Once you decide to lower a camera, the question...

When we got back to the boat ramp late Tuesday afternoon, July 18, the boat was heavy with our limit of red snapper and red grouper. For much of the day, we didn’t expect it to end that way. We didn’t launch until 9:00 am because some dummy forgot to call ahead to have the boat removed from storage ...
