went out sunday morning with a couple of friends. we made a run out to the alabama alps area to find some rocks and fish. we got out there to the marathon reef and checked it out for a minute. got a red snapper and just small aj. moved on a few miles to the west and fished some natural bottom we had hit during the summer and caught some white snapper for the box. wanted some groupers so we went back to a ledge we had marked earlier in the day. the water went from 230 ft to 215 and it was decent sized area. we anchored up and caught fish right away. we landed 3 scamp while there, one on squid and two on pinfish. caught a bunch of aj's but they were all 28 inches to the fork.:banghead also caught some nice red snapper. below is a pic we took of one and successfully released. most of them were about that size. after a while i got a nice slam on a big pinfish. it was fighting hard and shaking its head. thought it was another juvy aj and up comes a nice 13 lb red grouper. the bite was consistent and we lost a couple of real good fish to the rocks. nice day with a nice mess of fish.
