I come and go a few times through summer. I like summer fishing here too much to miss it. It is a bit hot , agreed.

Ed have you ever drifted the pass for mangrove snapper doing the summer months after the tarpon season is over, I've caught some of the biggest snapper that I've ever caught drifting Boca Grand pass with cut bait and also you never know what you might get I've caught grouper and other fish also.

I think that is a Black Snapper. Color and scales don't match Mutton.

Unfortunately we aren’t here during the summer months. But thanks for the info.
What’s the best bait for them?


The charter captain I was with was using shrimp. We caught a lot of mangrove snappers and sheep heads.

No stripes so probably a mahogany snapper.
