8 Hour Trip – Reef Meat
+3
If you are looking to put some fresh meat in the box, this is a great trip! We fish up to 40 miles offshore with our main focus on reef fish such as red grouper, lane snapper, vermillion snapper, mangrove snapper, porgy and other bottom dwellers.
There is nothing like going toe to toe with an angry Red Grouper fighting to get back to its hole with you fighting it on the other end of the line! We call it the 10 ft tug of war... one will win, one will loose. which one will you be???

The extra hour will give you the opportunity to head a bit further offshore as you hunt some exciting game fish. Groupers, Snappers, Barracuda, and Kingfish will be your main target, all of whom will be tough to reel in and some who will be useful table fare at the end of the day.

We had the best time fishing with Captain Bill! The fish wanted to make it a challenge, but he worked hard to find us a couple hot spots where we caught grouper, porgy and lots of snapper. We are already looking forward to our next fishing trip with Captain Bill!
