50 lb. Cobia this week as well as some smaller keepers. Migration is on as our waters start to cool. Goliath Grouper are hitting as soon as you present baits to them. Gag Grouper are in close and on all the wrecks. Snapper have been consistent and Permit are still prowling around, hitting on crabs and shrimp. Sheepshead will start to spawn offshore soon, great fish fry..

Large schools of Spanish Mackerel all over.Some nice big Kingfish last week.
