Destin - Saltwater Fishing Report
Like the title says, the Red Snappers have been everywhere. Up untill this morning the weather has been very cooperative and I have been running 2 trips a day. While everybody knew that the Snapper population had come back to the point of there being almost too many it is still amazing how many BIG fish there are around. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining by any means !
We have still been catching (and releasing ) lots of gag (Black) Groupers. Yesterday afternoon we let 4 go on a 2 hour afternoon trip that were over the 22" mark. If we don't get a big storm this summer to move all these fish around I imagine that come mid Sept when they open back up we will be having some easy fishing yet again.
Rather than ramble on I'll post a few picks from the past week. While I only have a couple slots open for Snappers before they close July 18th I have about a week of Tarpon trips still open the end of July/first part of August if anybody wants to try to put a big silver fish in the air----
