Default MORE Big Red Grouper 8/26 VIDEO Report

Another overnight trip 50 to 60 miles out for more Big Red Grouper. Had to work for them a little harder this time and the triggerfish bite wasn't as strong as last week. Tanner had the hot stick this trip!

Enjoy the Video, Click the link below:

Thanks, I am sure that the jig you posted would catch fish. However, the jig in the vid has an assist hook "cable" looped around the main hook on the jig head (set up like a stinger hook on a cable 6-8 inches long) and the jig head looks to be close to 10 ounces (up to 3x heavier than the "everything jig".) Think deep water.

The best question "probably" "is the main jig hook baited with squid or a live fish bait?

The entire assembled jig with stinger may well be "homemade" from several commercially available components.
