Red is Beautiful !

To paraphrase the old cliche'- Red sure has been beautiful this season. A rainy summer morning has me on the hill for at least another hour so I'll post a few pics from the past week. The Snappers continue to be hot with BIG ones biting on a daily basis. Now, as I tell a lot of folks "they don't get big by being dumb". A lot ( most ?) of the big bites end in broken leaders or pulled hooks. Here are a few pics of some of the ones that didn't away this week. {%image_id=21740%} Yeah- It's Big {%image_id=21733%} That middle one is even bigger ! {%image_id=21738%} The Grayton "Motley Beach Crew" on a quick fun run for some of the guys that are always there to help a boat come in {%image_id=21739%} Groupers too ! {%image_id=21737%} Even Cobias ! {%image_id=21736%} {%image_id=21735%} {%image_id=21734%} and more and more and more........ Three and half days left in Snapper season and I'm off to chase tarpons for 2 weeks. There will be plenty of other critters besides Red Snappers to catch here in August though. We have all left the Triggers alone for 2 months, the Kings are stating to show good again and Amberjacks re-open on August 1st. I can promise that if the weather is good there will be a LOT of big AJ's caught on the 1st few days of August ! Not to mention all those Red Groupers that seem to have shown up this summer.
