Mangrove Snapper

By Capt. Jorge Fernandez

Juan and Jason from South Miami wanted to get into the night time Mangrove Snapper bite.  We left the dock at 6:30pm and ran out to 70’ of water set the anchor and put out the chum.  We let the chum do its thing for about 30 minutes. In the meantime I caught approximately 5 dozen Pilchards in the chum slick.

 

We started fishing right at sunset, the bites a slow at first but soon picked up.  We fished until 11:00pm with no stop in the action from Mangrove and Yellowtail Snappers.

 

Final Tally

 

13 Mangroves to 5 pounds

 

17 Yellowtails biggest about 18”

 

1 Yellow Jack

 

And a couple of short Red Groupers which we released.

 

REMEMBER:  Summer is here and it gets too hot to fish during the day.  An evening Snapper fishing trip is a great way to put some good eating fish on the dinner table without getting overheated and breaking the bank.  Give me a call to inquire about our evening yellow tail and mangrove snapper trips.
