Memorial day week fishing trip

[frank1861]

My dad and I took the week off this past week and a good friend of ours flew in from Missouri for the week. The weather looked good last Saturday for our first run out to the middle grounds so we went for it. We left the dock around 3 p.m. and hit our first spot about 95 miles out around 6. We fished all night catching grouper, snapper and amberjack. By the end of the trip around noon on Sunday we had filled two 150 qt coolers.

Last Friday's trip was rough we dodged huge rain storms in the morning and fished in rough conditions all day. We ran out 56 miles to get away from the rain hoping it would smooth out but it didn't fortunately we limited out red snapper.

I won't eat it but the guy that caught them says he eats it all the time. While he was trying to catch those two cudas he even caught a Managrove snapper on a tube lure.
