Grouper trolling

[phatdaddy]

after breakfast, my son and i decided to go do a little grouper trolling in the bay. he had to go to work at 3 and we didn't get out till 11, so we had a limited window.
trolled the flats for 2 hours, nothing but one lizard fish. told him 10 more minutes then we had to go to get him to work.

Old Crow Medicine Show came on his playlist,and this guy decided to join the party.






not a huge one, but very good for the bay in 13 ft of water.

thanks guys, been doing a little fishing, but not as much as usual since the open heart surgery in april. starting to feel myself again as the season is winding down.

i did go back sunday with my wife and managed to get this guy to bite. had a stud at the boat, but line broke (i know, no pic,no fish).

we had a bowl of cheese grits topped with fresh fried grouper chunks for supper, so all in all, a great thanksgiving weekend.
