If this report includes a tournament entry please state the species and length of the fish caught in this box. Bad news on 2023 gag season folks. NMFS is going to close it early. Early being October 19. Harvest levels are apparently too high and they want to avoid overrunning the annual catch limit.

State the length and species in the box below After getting ready on Friday we left Monday morning at 7am.the seas were calm so headed west to 60-70 ft depth. Using cigar minnows & herring Dave hooked up with a 28″ Red Snapper. Must have been near the bottom. Dave released it after a quick photo. But he floated away filled with air. We decided to leave our hot spot to go net the fish. Dave used my venting tool to puncture the fish to let the air out of his bladder. The air hissed out of his body. He swam happily down.  Although we lost our hot spot the fish gods were good to us.We caught many species of fish. Robbie & I caught 20″ & 18″ Gags. I caught a 13″ Hog fish,  while Mike was cleaning up on Yellow tail and porgies. We also picked up a few grunts and the was unknown fish in the batch. See the big fish on the table and let us know what it is. I forgot to mention other fish we caught.   Mike 13″ Hog fishBob 23″ Red grouper shown in the photo i Dave had a Mangrove snapper.Robbie, Mike, Bob & Dave shared 9 Lane snappers see the photo.

Your Fishing Report: If this is a tournament report do not state the fish’s length in this box. State the length and species in the box below Jean & I went on vacation up to Gloustra Mass for 3 weeks.We meet this Captain Scott and he took us out about 15 times  for strippers and blue fish.. The nice part was we only had to go 4 miles from where he kept his boat. We were fishing about 70 yards  from the  rocky shore line and we were in 35′ of water. Amazing how deep the waters were. We caught our mackerel about 1/2 mile from shore and we were in 125′ of water.Jean & I never caught soo many big fish. On the average we caught 10-13 a day. between 25″- 45″.The slot was 28-31. It was tough catching a slotted stripper as you can see by the pics.The bait of choice was 11-14″ mackerel and when they hit it, you had to give them around 10 seconds before you could set the hook and in the mean time line is screaming off your reel, you just want  to set the hook as it’s screaming off, but you couldn’t, if you did you would miss the fish.We can’t wait to get back up there next year to catch them again.TEAM UFFA

We started at Low tide looking in deep spots in front of GH. We headed south trying the flats caught a couple small ones lurking in the grass. we headed to deeper water. My light rod was not enough for the hit I got. This fish took my bait and headed for Key West. I thumbed my spool wiggled my rod but couldn’t turn the fish. My burgundy braded line whistled off my spool. We also had a good time with 2 big angry jumping ladyfish 19″. Tom had some fun with a Gafftopsail catfish. A little hot but a good day.

State the length and species in the box below A slight omission.  After sending the fishing report and including a pic of the nice trout Frank caught our last time out, I realized I forgot to also include a pic of the one I got.  So although he’s a bit smaller, I thought I’d put him in the running.

State the length and species in the box below Another fun day on the water!  Frank Bellizio and I left the dock around 11:30 and went to several haunts teasing the local inhabitants with live shrimp, plastic curly tails and topwater lures. Found a lengthy weed-line and stayed a while before moving along.  The water was bathtub-like flat (temp probably was, too) and so we leisurely traveled with ease from spot to spot.We each caught a menagerie of species but Frank got the day’s winner with this nice 16″ trout!
