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.

this is the fourth one in in about 3 weeks. normally grouper closes first of december, but this year marine patrol extended it until end of month, trying to take advantage of as long as it last. notice how blue the edges of the fins are, suppose to be from eating shrimp, but all of these had lizard fish in their stomachs.

air temp was 65-70 water temp still mid 60's, but cold front moving in tomorrow night. no more till middle of next week
