Went bottom fishing with the wife today and caught nice fish. :fishing:fishing
Drift was dead west, even out to 200ft, you drifted dead west, strange day. We bottom fished out of PBI, (LWI), in 60 ft - 200ft using bonita strips. Beautiful day on the water! Muttons were in 90-100ft.
Total counts:
Mutton Snapper: 2/2
Grouper: 1/3 (2 monsters rocked me)
Other Snapper: 2/3
Bonita: 3/4
Tuna: 0/1
Kings: 0/1
Remora: 3/0
Blue runner: 1/1

I'm 6'6" so they don't come across in the photos to true size. My fingers are already about 4-5inches long, plus I'm wearing those huge gloves so all that helps to make the fish look smaller than they really are. Next time I'll have my wife pose with the fish. ;-)
Usually she is bad luck and causes me to get skunked, not today! She did however beat me to getting a bite on my new deep drop jig. I had been jigging for 20 minutes without a hit when she asked to try, first drop for her, BAMMM. :idiot
(fyi a 38" mutton is about 30++lbs) lol j/k :grin

I think he means 18 and 24. Those are nice fish but largest there is 6lbs.

No I didn't make a typo. I measured them at the docks, 34 and 28. Pictures don't convey size at all.
Thx Flyers Up :-) Hoping to go again soon and do it again!
you can't measure your fish with the ruler that comes with the Viagra kit !
Hahaha, that's good
Here is a 34" mutton... 18 lbs. love the muttons (no matter the size) and def love a good fish story, but I'm calling your bluff!:liar

One I got few weeks ago 31"
If I had let my wife or a smaller person hold the mutton you'd eat your words. I'm 6'6" so a 34" mutton is small next to me. Your kid in that photo shows the fishes size. Nice time I'm posting with a ruler next to my fish.
Dude, sorry but those fish are not 28" & 34". They are nice fish & a good troll...
