I've been tying flies for a month now and this is the first break in the weather. Friday appears to be a solid "skip" day.

Now let the sun shine, the waters warm and the reds get skinny

.

FRIDAY
SOUTHEAST WIND 5 KNOTS...THEN BECOMING NORTHWEST WIND 5
TO 10 KNOTS LATE. SEAS 1 TO 2 FEET. PROTECTED WATERS SMOOTH TO A
LIGHT CHOP.

SATURDAY
NORTH WIND 5 TO 10 KNOTS. SEAS 1 TO 2 FEET. PROTECTED
WATERS SMOOTH. A SLIGHT CHANCE OF RAIN.

decisions, decisions

Wevans, where would one go to find grouper while this cold. I've got quite a few #'s but I've never really fished for them this time of year. Would you go deep and bottom fish or troll or stay shallow. Maybe try anything and hope you catch one.

Well someone posted the forecast so lets hope it holds, if so we headed to 50ish foot to find them Groupas.

I start trolling in 30 foot and work my way deeper "if necessary" till I find em

or I get worried about being in a Bass boat out there and just stay in close and hope for the best

I appreciate your expert advice. I may try that this weekend.

I think it's a sure bet. A change of 2 degrees C is the ticket. Lee side of the wind, dark bottom, structure...
