Steinhatchee 6-01! Pic Added!

Post by ttop_guy »

Trip for red snapper a success! We left out at 7:30, ran about 2 hours, and had our limit of red snapper (14) by noon. We were in about 90 feet of water and the water was a brilliant blue. My first live pinfish I caught a 33" AJ. 5 keeper red snapper, and 1 24" gag was my haul, along with several shorts of each species. There wasn't anything in the cooler to brag about, all the snapper were around 5 to 7 pounds, and 1 kepper red grouper. (most everything was caught on live pinfish or frozen squid)

It was a beautiful day and it sure beat being at work. :thumbup:

Glad to know the ever "endangered" red snapper is still out there :roll:

You got me there! :lol: The AJ took care of him. I did catch 3 snapper on the same piece of squid.

Nothing special to look at, but I grilled some of each Tuesday night and it was something special to eat! :-D

I was a little optimistic with the weight of a few(most) of the snapper :oops: . I guess I have watched to many Bill Dance and Roland Martin fishing shows.
