Fall is in the air, and the samll grouper are swarming in Pass-A-Grille. Joined by friends Tim and Craig, we caught ’em by the dozen last weekend, despite a brutal 25 knot north wind. Manatees and dolphins cruised past the Pier. And, variety is on the increase- the day’s catch included gag grouper, mangrove snapper, redfish, ladyfish, pinfish, lizardfish, pufferfish, and… sheepshead.

Yes, the sheepshead are hungry. Live shrimp was the ticket for a couple of hubcap sized beauties. Should be a good fall.

Side note- sounds like my buddy Alan will be cruising in from the backwoods of Kentucky in early December. This calls for some offshore time! And maybe another Captain Mike Homer charter?
