Did you know what kind of fish you were catching or if any are edible?

We figured it out quick. We caught: grouper, Jack crevalle, another type of Jack, blowfish, mangrove snapper, almost got a barracuda in, and a type of wrasse called a slippery dick. No joke lol
And like, fifty grunts.
Also bonnethead sharks.
Couple others too, but not doing well with names. Obviously these were small fish mostly, and we were just doing our best. No one was catching much those weeks we heard. We were happy catching a million smaller ones.

Love the way saltwater fish fight. Used to go to Florida all the time diving, spearfishing and catching lobster. Great pics, thanks for sharing.

Awesome! We didn’t make it down this year, usually go to Duck Key. Looks like a great time! Beautiful place. Mangrove canals, flats, never enough time to do it all. The Keys have a lot to offer! Did you make it to No Name Pub?
John Well john, we ate out once and because of this silly virus avoided most other places! We had a good cooler and brought down as much food as.we could and cooked at the campsite. with the price of food down there we'd have been broke doing it any other way. Triscuits were five bucks a box! We get them on sale for two bucks each Canadian up here!! Was a super budget trip, so we made use if the cheap gas instead. Where do you stay on duck key? I am trying to find camping spots further down but it is ridiculous to find anywhere.

Have a brother in law live on big pine key, he fishes out back a lot. Fishing not real good this year. He has been down there full time for 24 years.
