Default Destin, 5 days, Groupers, Snappers etc

I towed the Fountain from Houston to Destin on Monday 6-26-06. Tuesday, I got the boat set up at Legendary Marine by about noon. I was by myself, but I had to go. I got some squid and cigar minnows and cleared the Jetty at about 3pm. I ran out short to some bottom and managed a limit of Grouper (1 Red, 4 Gags) and a limit of 16 inch snappers.


Wednesday, two of us ran out and fished wrecks. We ended up with Beeliners, 1 Gag, AJ, and a few Scamps, and a couple of Snapper.

Thursday, we did an afternoon trip and put a 6 year old on his 1st Red Snapper and 1st Grouper.

Friday we ran way out to some deep bottom 300-450 feet. We caught Snowys, Beeliners, an Almaco Jack, and some Scamps. We ran back inshore and picked up a nice Sow Snapper.


Saturday we did a quick morning trip and caught a few Snappers and Beeliners, Then right before we were gonna head in, Steve made one more drop that produced a nice Gag Grouper.

Here are Tuesday's picks of my solo trip: 1 man limit of Grouper and Snapper.

Well maybe not. here we go again. Where is that picture attatchment button?

What kind of depths were you picking up grouper and if you don't mind telling where were you running to? I understand if they are private #'s then they are just that but you were fishing natural bottom or public reefs I'd love a little help as I fish that area from time to time!
