I was finally able to take the new to me boat (32' yellowfin) out saturday. I couldn't ask for a better day. Every hole I stopped at from 22 miles - 38 miles was loaded with snapper, grouper, BSB's and one hole had a big school of 20-30 lb AJ's. I had a friend of mine and 3 boys (10,11, &12) on board and they caught fish until they were give out. If the fish stick around, and I think they should, it should be a great year for snapper.

nice catch! and no worries, only the people are sideways, all but one of the fish is facing the right way! :)

i never had amber jack, how is the meat? strong like mackerel? or more like tuna?

I like just legal size AJ's if they ever let you keep them again. Really big ones are normally full of worms. Not really like a king or a tuna.
