Went twenty miles out today with a couple friends in hopes of limiting out on snapper. The bite was VERY slow and perhaps it was because even though we were twenty miles out and on the spot before seven AM there were about ten boats already on the wreck.
Any how I started off jigging, first three drops, three AJs. Not on the spot for much more then thirty minutes and Im BEAT. Switch up to bottom rig with live herring like the other two. Bite was slow, but the other two ended up boating five nice snapper. I was STILL catching AJs and getting my ass just handed to me. I even caught a king with no leader and two hard tails that I swear were over five pounds.
No snapper for me but I did catch alot of fish. My friends gave me this five because I by far worked the hardest. Funny thing is, the other two only caught the five snapper while I got seven AJs, two monster hardtails and a king. Too bad AJs closed yesterday. All the snapper were this size.
