When a big wahoo is coming over the rails, you’d better watch your toes! These fish are showing up for the winter season and there’s nothing more exciting than seeing them hit the deck. Are you eating this fish raw or cooked?

What a couple of beauties! These Mutton snappers are the kind you’ll find thriving on any healthy reef in the Caribbean. They mainly feed on a mix of crustaceans and fish. One fascinating thing about them is that you can lure a school along with you by keeping small bits of food in the area. I’ve developed some effective techniques for this and have managed to lead schools of Mutton Snapper several miles. They truly are intriguing fish in that regard.

It’s interesting to note that when you dive near a shipwreck or a rocky area, Mutton snappers often patrol the outer edges, blending into the sandy bottom. Their orange hues become nearly indistinguishable at depth, making them look like ghosts as they vanish into the sand. Initially, you might mistake them for smaller fish, only realizing their true shape as they move. I’ve often wondered if this camouflage aids them in hunting.

In places like Fort Jefferson within the national park, where they aren’t subjected to spearfishing, Mutton snappers approach with remarkable curiosity. However, outside park boundaries, they tend to keep their distance.

I’ve never been a supporter of area closures for various reasons. It’s a contentious topic; when the government restricts an area, they rarely reopen it. Some argue that closures allow fish stocks to spawn and recover, while others believe it just shifts pressure to adjacent areas. What are your thoughts on area closures as a fishery management strategy? Do you support them or oppose them? I’d love to hear your perspective!

There’s no better feeling than throwing the net and feeling it jitter on the way down to the bottom of the ocean, knowing you’re about to have a great day fishing.

Crushing the red snapper. Big beautiful fish with the biggest at 28lbs on the dot. Plenty of grouper too, more pics coming soon! Hope you guys got a chance to get out here and hit it before red snapper season closes on the first of the year. 🏃🏼‍♂️‍➡️ What would you think would be a good bag and bag limit for red snapper if they opened up the season year round?
