GAG GROUPER FISHING REPORT 🎣

Been waking up and stacking the gags lately! The bite has been producing both daytime and nighttime, with a mix of artificial lures and live bait putting fish in the boat.

During the day, we’ve been working lures around structure and targeting areas holding quality fish. Once the sun goes down, we’ve been switching things up and putting out lively baits, which have been getting some serious attention.

The fish have been chewing, the action has been consistent, and the quality of the gags has made for some awesome trips. Nothing beats watching that rod...

The fish have been chewing, the action has been consistent, and the quality of the gags has made for some awesome trips. Nothing beats watching that rod
load up and knowing you’ve got a good grouper coming to the boat!

The key has been staying on productive structure, changing up presentations, and being ready when that big bite comes.

The gags are stacking up—time to go bend some rods! 🎣🔥

    We had such a great time on our fishing charter with Dillon! My kids and I had an absolute blast. We caught tons of great fish and learned a few fishing tricks too. The whole experience was so much fun & Dillon made it a great time from start to finish. It was the perfect way to have fun family time, and we would definitely do it again. Highly recommend this charter!
