My parties have been finding fish and exciting times off Anna Maria Island. Lauren Marie of Bradenton caught, and released, a big beautiful Gag Grouper She was using a sardine in about 65 ft offshore. Lauren is a avid inshore flats fisherman and this was her first offshore experience; it was a great one. Her party also caught and released many more Gags, plus lots of Red Grouper, Scamp, Porgys, Triggerfish, Hogfish, and lots of other Snappers for dinner.
Roger Phillips The 3rd, using a large live pinfish in about 120 ft offshore, came up with a great Amberjack.
And Kelly Quin of Ann Maria Island said she would like to catch a hogsnapper, as she had never caught one before. Miss Kelly received her heart's desire when her wish was granted while fishing in about 65 ft offshore.

That is a weird looking fish but a good catch.
