Stopped for pinfish near the bird cage and picked up an 18" trout. Headed off shore to some public numbers. We picked up three nice flounder. We caught a half dozen or more grouper but the closest to a keeper was 21". We caught most grouper trolling plugs and even picked up a 28" cobia on a plug.
We did get rocked up a few times...pretty sure those would have been keepers but the world will never know!

And that's why we go fishing. You just never know, in salt anyway. Thanks for posting.

The grouper pulled the plugs back into the hole?
Or you lost the plug on bottom structure?

We did lose one plug on structure but we got rocked up fishing with live bait on the bottom. We caught grouper on live bait and plugs but it seemed like the plugs were better.

I just assume that any grouper that takes me into the rocks was legal size, big and glorious. A good fish. A noble fish.
