Yes, you can definitely catch grouper during the winter in the bay. Try around the jetties in the pass, deep structure in the bay and structure around the deeper wateron theFt. Pickens coastline. I've caught them on live bait...others have had luck trolling stretch 25's for them....I never have though.

If you have a bottom machine, troll around like suggested and just watch what you run over. Go back, hit it again.

It's warm so they might not be real thick but when it's nasty cold for a few days, they'll stack up a bit better.

Good luck. Get pics.

A good place is just out from the ranger station on Ft. Pickens. Deep water holes are the best, around 60ft or so.
