How far out are you guys fishing since the Fed Closure seems to be most of the damn gulf.

Give or take a couple dozen nautical miles. Who was keeping track that closely?

Plus, staying on that circle is pretty tricky. Did you see how wobbly the lines were?

we saw a Coast Guard Cutter out there patroling the line.

we were inside the closure at the time as well as a few other boats and they never even considered coming checking us out or even radioed over

i think they're being easy on the line if youre with in a few miles

That dot looks to be in the Ship Shoal area (i'll keep the block number to myself). I was headed there Saturday till one of the motors wouldn't start. Glad it did it at the launch instead of 60 miles from the truck!!

Can't wait to get back out there, the snapper/AJ/everything else fishing has been incredible.

Yupp that was us. The guys we were talking to caught all the fish in those pictures.

It sucks that we had to come in early. Couldn't have had better weather

Did any of you see a brand new 38' Gravios with a couple of 350hp's out there Saturday? They were having engine problems too.
