I could have sworn we had a "FAIR GAME" forum on here. Oh well, I suppose this is close.

As the title says, wish me luck; I'm off on a fishing trip into the Gulf of Mexico tomorrow. I was invited my my daughter's mother (don't ask the backstory, LOL) She and I and my/her oldest grandson will be going on the company trip arranged by her employer on a trip targeting Red Snapper specificly. We board the Destin Princess at 06:30 and leave the Destin Harbor at 07:00 and return at 13:00.

As the moon's at (or very near) Perogee, the tides, and thus the fishing, should be good.

, We want to know that you're gonna catch the most fish. No seriously have fun, sounds like it should be a fun time. So all the best, good weather, good grub, good company and tight lines.

Have a great time! I'm more than a bit jealous. The only time I have had Red Snapper was when I was in Port Charlotte a couple of years ago. Tasty!

We had a GREAT day!!! Me James and Barbara all caught our legal limit (two Snappers each) for a total of 29 pounds!

Here's a picture of the deck hands cleaning four of them while the two biggest ones hang out of the picture

here's the two biggest ones (one of them mine and the other is Barbara's) hanging over the filleting table

Barbara hasn't posted the picture with the three of us holding the stringer yet. If she gets it on line I'll share it later.
