Left Remleys at about 7. Fished the 60 until about 11. Lots of small bsb, ringtail, and some good sized grunts. 2 keeper bsb. Saw a few small schools of bonita. Fish caught on live mudminnows, frkzen shrimp, and artificial shrimp. Ran in as the wind picked up. Overall decent 1st trip of the year.

Are ringtail fish big?They any good to eat?
Nah they are maybe 10 inches. They’re not bad for a stew or chowder. Just not much meat.

Good to meet you at the boat launch and out at the 60. That corner of the reef seemed to produce for us, is that were you landed your keepers or on your first anchor spot?
Hey man. Which boat were you? We got our keepers on the corner. The rest of the spots was smaller trash fish. Wish I had my trolling gear. Would’ve liked to grab some bonita. How’d you guys do?

Good on y’all for getting out and getting some experience.

Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn’t go so far as to call a dog filthy but they’re definitely dirty. But, a dog’s got personality. Personality goes a long way.

Grady were you on the Grady White walk around? If so I’ll fish next to you guys anytime. Good drift set and never in anyone’s way. Next time your heading out let me know. I’ll roll with you guys.

cook the ringtails like bream, whole, a lot more meat for the time!! Taste great to.
Did yall see bonitas at the 60’ or were they deeper? thanks
You can’t catch fish on a dry line
Marsh we saw them at the 60. Came up 3 times. Probably half dozen or so. There was a good amount of bait there too.

That was me, we got 9 keepers. Great day fishing! We went exploring for a bit when the bite slowed down. Came back but it had slowed and I think you took off. there was another boat on the other side of the reef.
I will hit you up next time we head out. I plan on doing a lot of dolphin fishing this year.
You had a better day than us. We left about 11 when the wind picked up. Definitely hit me up when you go offshore again. We want to do some trolling this year and some deep bottom fishing. Keep in touch.
