Well we got a special one today folks! Check out the size of this snapper my young angler Jack caught while fishing today. We were having fun bending the rods with mangrove snapper which are truly a tasty fish to catch. It also takes quite a bit of skill and sometimes luck to land the larger size ones. As I like to say they didn't get big by being dumb - you have to downsize your tackle, use different bait, and pull out just about every trick in the book to get them to bite (and sometimes they still dont!) Anyways this was a cool catch so really proud of him. We've been getting some good ones lately in between tarpon fishing which is also really good fight now. We got a tarpon on this day as well.
