Default Correct on all Counts

1. With respect to the allowable fishing season for Red Snapper, the Feds only allowed a one week period around Memorial Day on the Gulf of Mexico. But Florida is having a 52 day season in state waters (<9 miles off shore).

2. The $30 Walmart special rods I was equipped with (spinning rods with 12# monofilament) were barely up to the task as we lost more than we caught. so I immediately went to Academy for a $130 PENN Defiance combo with 65# braid (the first of many I will soon buy I'm sure).

Lots of fun had by all as we fished until we ran out of hooks.

Hope to post more pix soon, Slow
