Slow tide and slow fishing about sums it up. Found some cigar minnows and spanish sardines in 50 foot, but they were all snapper bait sized, which of course produced some fine catches of red snapper. :hammer: The AJ's are still thick at the Yamaha. The grouper bite was slow but steady, except during the slack tide when they shut down. We boxed six, 23-25", but they're a good bit fatter than last trip. Frozen LY's and mackeral both worked well. Waited until the last hole to anchor, that and chumming seem to help the bite. Fished 50 - 60 ft all day, water temp 59-61, good clarity, nice day.

AJ's hit a 6 oz jig with a 6" white glow in the dark grub and a small piece of squid attached.
