Short ride for a Grouper

Post by geofish »

Got a late start with a few boat/trailer issues, so my plan to go far & deep for grouper didn't match up with the hours I had available. Took a quick run to St Marks reef, and after one boat left, I had it all to myself on my favorite spot (until 4 more boats arrived) . I didn't have live bait, so I pinned 3 tiny pinfish that Jerry's sold frozen plus a little chunk of cut mullet all on a big circle hook. Honestly I didn't expect much in 18 foot depth this timeof year, but this nice big gag decided to come aboard. Saved my day!Image

Small trout near the flats. Ever-present remoras on the reef. I was mostly testing the boat after re-doing the helm dash etc. My buddy and his brother caught 2 nice cobia at the same exact spot (used my boat & gps marks) 2 weeks ago.
