Grouper Season 2020

Report Date: December 1, 2020

Grouper season will end at the end of the month. Jan1-May 1 they are shut down to preserve these magnificent eating fish. We primarily power drift or anchor on ship wrecks or ledges when targeting them. The bait of choice are pinfish, thread herring, speedos, and sometimes goggle eyes.

  This year has been one of the best I have seen for groupers. The closures are definitely helping . Asides from the groupers we also have been catching mutton snapper,

cobia,

porgy, and sharks.

  If you didn't have a chance to target them this year . May 1 they will be opening again. That first week of May fills up fast so I would suggest to book early if you are interested in targeting them.
