Hadn't been offshore since the Classic, took off work to go today. Launched around 6:30, caught bait for about 1 hour, and off we went. The first spot was 75 ft. We pulled up 7 mangroves, 1 red snapper, and 2 gags then the bite quit. On the way to the second spot marked some good live bottom in 85 ft. and decided to give it a try, and I'm glad we did. Our first drop we had on a triple, everyone was hooked up!
We proceeded to spank them, and in no time had a limit of nice grouper. They were chewing so good, we continued to catch and release about a dozen more keepers and left them biting. Total tally: 7 mangroves, 3 red snapper, 9 gags, and 6 red red grouper. The big gag was 18 lbs, the red grouper 13 lbs, the red snapper 9 lbs, and the mangroves were all around 6-7 lbs. Had a good day
Hope y'all had fun at work
We had our limit by 11:30, back at the house at 2:30. This picture was taken after the fish were divided up, so no limit is shown.
Maybe some day that will happen for me
