i have a Pathfinder 19 that is capable of getting to some of the closer reefs / grouper spots, if the seas are right, 2-3' seas aren't bad in it, not great, but tolerable. F
Would anyone be interested in trading a skinny water trip for a trip to the reefs / wrecks?
does this make sense?

when we want to go grouper fishing we go in a larger boat, we usually stay inshore in my boat, its a 21' flats type boat, been out there when it got bad!!

who asked you

(i've known this guy for about 30 yrs)
my 'grouper' fishing is limited to this time of year when they are in close, and the seas are flat, if it's more than 2' or potential for more than 2, i stay inshore, my Pathfinder is ok in 2' or less seas, but regardless of seas, i'm not going out there far

, i'm skeered
get your ticket yet?

Wevens was talking about depth.
I went trolling for grouper one day and a guy on my boat asked, "How far are we from land?" I looked at the depth finder and said, "oh about 26 feet."
