Had a fun crew to fish with. Myself and my chick, Greg and his chick, Ben and his chick. Probably only fished for about 4 hours, but my chick ended up catching a 19#-3oz gag on R&R. Ben’s lady put a nice gag in the boat too. Greg’s chick didn’t get the big gag, but caught 3 undersized scamps that had to be let go. They also put a hurting on the grunts. Greg and I dove one of Ben’s spots and it was a pretty nice low relief bottom. Greg saw a shooter gag and put him out of his misery. We also saw a gag who had half a black face, but couldn’t get close enough to shoot him. We came up and went down on another spot with only a half a tank of air. We ended up finding fish with about 5 minutes of air left. Greg got himself a nice Red snapper (16#) and two lobsters (8#, 9#). All were weighed on a digital scale. We saw turtles all over the place today including 5-6 of them sleeping on the bottom.
All in all, a short but fun day with a great crew. Can’t wait to do it again.
