Got out to the Y-73 at 7:30, dropped a line to check the spot and instantly hook up big. Goes slack and I pull up a huge vermillion head dripping blood. So we anchored out anyways and the weather starting looking rough. One after another the poles were bending over with Barracuda, Amberjack, and Red Snapper. The 2 red snappers were released healthy and swam back down, unfortunately the third one was ripped in half on the way up. Repositioned the boat and finally ran the grunts off when the snappers came running through. We instantly hit our limit on B-liners, brought in some nice sea bass, huge triggers, and my arms about gave up on me after getting an 8 ft shark to the boat. Even though it rained, we had a blast and stuffed the freezer full.

Good going Capt, thanks for the report.

Nice Ricky - I was wondering how you did out there yesterday. Congrats on another great catch. Nice shark too!

Matt that was my first time catching red snapper and it was incredible. I almost thought I had an AJ on the line but it didn’t have the strong run, just the aggressive head shake and a lot of pull back.

No ringtails at the 73. I’ve got a spot to catch them but it’s further inland
