I thought grouper are bottom fish. How do you troll for them?

Great catch! I think that Rapala deserves to be in some sort of fishing tackle "hall of fame"...they make a ton of great lures! Thanks for sharing your adventure on the water!

Nice catch. By the looks of the nails, it was not your first catch.

Great catch! We used to live in Wakulla in the late 1990’s and loved to troll the stretch 30’s to catch grouper. Lots of fun!

Found nomad lures this year. Pricy but run straight ! Also stretch 30’s. We tie directly to braid 80 lb or 80 lb mono. We’ve also caught red snapper, cobia ,sea bass everything trolling stretches ,🙂🐠
