Trip Summary

The reef has been hot lately! Full of action! We decided to take a break from the sailfishing and decided to go after yellowtail snapper and grouper on the last day of the 2023 season and boy did it pay off! Box full of good eating fish including a stud of a 35 pound black grouper. Great way to end the season!
