That is probably a 200 lbs. jewfish. We did not catch it though. Another boat did, and could not get it down again. So I took it, and deflated its bladder and it swam on dow |
Recently, I have found a spot where I am catching grouper on fly rod. The grouper get so excited they start "jumping completely out of water!" I was astonished: grouper jumping out of water? It is true, and I have video of. It is amazing, and I will put it on the web soon.
This I stumbled over this when I took out Kim Kerdyke and her nephew, Trace, for a day fly fishing their first time in the saltwater. I took her over to a spot I catch these grouper, snapper, and big blue runners on bait. They are small but perfect for kids and beginner fly fishermen. They caught around 10 grouper on fly, and lost that many too in about 2 1/2 hours of fishing. I'll post those photos soon.
