OK, after looking around on the net and thanks to you guys comments, we believe that first fish is a Snowy Grouper who had its real tail bitten off. Guess it survived and healed as you see. We threw it back because it was a little "short" so it is still out there.

Also, after talking to some people and researching, we think we saw some Black Fin tuna busting about a mile east of the Destin jettys and say a mile off the beach on the way back. About 4'l ong and shaped like a foot ball. Didnt know they got in that close buta neighbor said they caught one years ago just off the beach.

Thanks for the inputs. Going to try to head out again on Tuesday and see what we can do.
