What a day. We left the dock at 6A and ran for two hours to put us 50 mi west of New Port Richey in 100 ft of water.
The weather was clear, but the waves were 3-4 ft making for a rough ride in a 25ft open center console boat.
The fishing was great and we got about 9 Red Grouper at the first spot. The largest was this bruiser at 27",
and in 100' of water they will make you work! Moving on to several other spots had us limited out at 12.
The last spot got me the lone Red Snapper at 17", which was our target for the day. We were using Pin Fish for bait.
Got back around 5P, I'm still frazzled and sore from the boat beating.
Hey BigWave, I'll trade you a Grouper number for your Snapper number
