Hernando Beach Gulf Grouper Report near Orlando

Hernando Beach Gulf Grouper Fishing Report Fishing off Hernando Beach for Grouper and Mangrove Snapper this month looks great. We have been catching Mangrove Snapper and Grouper in close and offshore a ways. Frozen Threadfin Herring, Pinfish, and live Sand Perch have been working really well for the Grouper. 10 hour and 12 hour trips during the warmer months are the most productive for size and variety of fish. Mangrove Snapper have been caught best on clear 15 pound line on spinning tackle with no leader or weight. Chumming with glass minnows and sand really gets the Snapper fired up and off the bottom. Then you can flat line for them with small chunks of bait. Most of the Mangrove snapper are around 2 pounds; however it is not uncommon to catch them over 5 pounds. See ya on the water, Capt Rick 727-992-9494
