Went deep sea fishing in Destin last summer. Had a lot of fun but that was mostly bc we caught 2 7+ foot sharks.

Didn't catch any red snapper. Would have had to throw them back anyways. Apparently you only had like a 1 or 2 week window in june to catch them and keep them last summer.

Caught 40+ Amberjack though. Only got to keep ~8 bc they had to be 30+ inches long to keep.

The current Red Snapper limit of 2 during a 2 week season makes the filets some of the most expensive fish in the world

Back in the day.... the only limit was the size of the ice chest.
