Been here a week and the weather has not been nice to us. Finally got to fish under seven mile bridge out of the wind. Got our share of different species. Hog fish, Pork fish, Grunts, Yellow tail snapper. DNR came and checked us and let us know we could not catch Pork Fish on a hook. They were considered a tropicsl fish. DNR told me years ago as long as you keep them in a live well you were legal. Laws change. Put them all back along with the undersize Hog Fish and Yellow Tail. Got one we didn't know what it was so I'm open for your thoughts.
Kathy with a big Pork Fish.
Kathy with a small Yellow Tail Snapper
Kathy with a 11 inch Hog Fish
Do you know what this is? I don't
Gave me a heck of a fight untill the Barracuda let go. Bite marks on fish
13.5 Hog Fish. 1/2 inch short for Gulf

Great catching Gordon! I know the frustration of limited time/poor weather conditions very well. Glad you got out and hooked a bunch. I have no idea about the fish, nothing like that up here. Thanks for the beautiful pictures.

Glad you finally got out Gordon. Sounds like you had a good time. Marathon is so nice. I'm sure you'll catch plenty more while you are there. Have a great time. Thanks for the pics
What a variety of fish Gordo. Thanks for the pics. Glad the DNR boys were reasonable.
