Grouper Report

pierfish · Posted: Sat Mar 03, 2007 7:18 pm Post subject: Grouper Report

Well, it was the second time this year that I really went out to target just grouper. The first trip we caught a ton of shorts. I love when everyone says that the weather is going to be horrible and so is the fishing. Allows me to fish more of the bridge Wink

Well I had 6 hook ups and I brought two home. I let Stephanie reel in the smaller one. The first was 25 inches and the second was 23 inches. I busted them both on pinfish. I went and purchased a great custom rod at the fairgrounds just for grouper fishing. Here is a photo:

Nice double, how log did you actually fight them?

Not very long, maybe 2 minutes. Once you get them out of the rocks, it is smooth sailing from there. Wink

Thanks Insteel Wink

You have some pretty nice fish yourself. I will soon be making a site on fishing in general. My goal is to have it be a top fishing site on the net. I am going to need someone with your expertise in trout fishing/fly fishing. I am sure you are very knowledgable in this field.

I have been fishing for trout and Salmon since about 11 and I am 35 now. We need to hook up when I am in Florida, and talk fishing and web site's.
