Gulf Snapper

Went fishing for 2 days (april 21 & 22) at the opening of Federal Red Snapper season in the Gulf. We ran through fog out to the 20 fathom mark and started dropping whole squid on 10/0 hooks hunting big snapper. The first day we caught the limit of eight with the largest reaching 29# and 5 of the 8 where over 15# (2 over 20#). Day 2 we returned to the same place in rougher seas and caught our limit again of smaller fish. We also snagged a few black snapper along the way. Both days combined produced over 200# of snapper between Doc & I. Here are a few pics of our catch.
