We are still seeing good numbers of Red Grouper! Also super stoked with opening of triggerfish! As always we have plenty of vermillion snapper around to add to the haul! Mild temps and good fishing make for great days!

It's been a pretty slow two weeks. We've had a lot of crappy conditions, so it's been tough getting out, but as far as the fish bite, it's been really good.
