Could fish 40 but we put 20 people on it. A few guys from my Mardi Gras Krewe get together each year and put a trip together. Had a blast.

Was talking to the hand about that yesterday briefly. He’s a captain himself and ironically enough he’s from Central. Was just helping out a friend with a bigger charter than normal. Small world.

Anyway he mentioned he had actually taken the feds out as a part of their process to determine the Snapper season during the previous Presidential administration.

Let’s just say locals know best.

Gray triggers are, but no queen. Those all look pretty gray to me but who knows. They lose color pretty fast out of the water.
