Trip Summary

First time out fishing the gulf she caught her very first grouper. Normal pick this morning We are catching and seeing large schools of spanish mackerel just as we get out into the gulf adding one more types of fish for box. Nice way to start out in our way to the reefs. Catch and release for gag grouper is still going on. I woukd think that with the water cooling down its only going to get better. Also from the amount of bait im seeing the king fish should be showing up very soon. It looked like we had one on the other day but it got off to far out to make a sure it was a king fish or very large spanish. Looks like the weathers going to keep us in for a few days however monday we should be back out. Next two fridays we have a open boat shared trip from 8 to 4. Better chance at taking home a red grouper or hogfish !! Thanks for looking !
