snapper--The mack bite will certainly last through the end of the month. Once the water heats up real good, I'm not so sure after that. They're are still some kings around and there are definitely some mixed in with the big Spanish. I caught a 25 inch Spanish on Saturday trolling the Egmont channel near the Skyway from my buddy's boat. We also got cut off by a couple of kings.
We were trolling for grouper and those pesky mackerel kept hitting our grouper baits. The mackerel are all over the place right now. We also couldn't stay away from them while bottom fishing the Egmont artificial reefs either. They kept hitting our sardines before we could get them to the bottom.
This is one of the ones we caught while bottom fishing.
I don't have a pic of the big one. I took a real day off Saturday and said no photos or writing while out fishing. That is one my buddy took with my back up point and shoot camera.
Needless to say, we had a lot of fun catching them, we put a few in the box, and I've had a good time eating them the last couple of nights as well.
