Bad day at work ....

It was a little slow at work , so I thought I'd launch the boat and try trolling for grouper. I've been hearing a lot of people are having success with the strech 25 lures. I was just about to give up, when this guy showed up. I didn't have a scale but he was 32" long and delicious.

He was great, nothing beter than fresh fish. *I also got to use a christmas present early. *I bought myself a food saver vacuum bagger. *I bagged 2 big chunk fillet's and I'll see how they do.

For eating, they're much better I'd say.

If you cook it whole don't forget the cheeks, mmmmm.

Tin, not only the cheeks, but the throat also.

I couldn't stand it today, not a breath of breeze, temps in the mid 70's, and sunny. I should have gone christmas shopping , but then I would not have met this guy
