What's hot: My daily routine often starts off slow trolling over the wrecks about 20 to 30 miles from shore. Some spinner sharks have been enticed, deep on the downriggers. These feisty game fish can leap 10 feet out of the water, spinning like a top. A combination of long speedy runs and aggressive attacks, makes this particular shark one of the feistiest fish in the gulf. Spinners averaged about 100 pounds. The table fare is not good, so we recommend releasing all spinners.
Big barracuda: Our largest barracuda of the week was close to 6 feet long, weighing 50 pounds. Once hooked, the giant leaped out of the water and made a run comparable to a big king. A barracuda has three rows of different sized teeth, some an inch long and sharp as a razor. After a quick photo the barracuda was released.
Red grouper catches: Red grouper fishing remain decent in depths of 80 plus feet. We have been busy sorting through all the different sizes. Many red grouper are 19 to 20 inches. After reeling up numerous undersized reds, a good sized keeper will eventually grab the bait.
