Family Charters Captain Morgan for Tampa Offshore Red Grouper Fishing Adventure

After some not so pleasant weather settled down, Captain Brian Morgan set out of Maximo channel in St. Petersburg around 9:30 am to hunt down some fish! The family aboard was filled with anticipation, wondering how the day was going to turn out having been forced to get a late start by Mother Nature. Well after a little rough ride out, the weather decided to play in their favor. The day turned beautiful and the fish began flying on board one after another. In addition to limiting out on Red Grouper (all approximately 16-22lbs), the clients also brought on a couple Mangrove Snappers and even the “oh-so-tasty” Red Snapper (Who’s high demand season is right around the corner). All in all, even with the rough start Captain Brian Morgan Managed to pull out yet another successful offshore fishing adventure. This family was ecstatic and had a great time bonding while also yelling “FISH ON”! IMG_0844 IMG_0845 IMG_0846 IMG_0847

Every reef fish that could be caught was pulled in from today’s offshore adventure! We caught Red Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Lane Snapper, Red Grouper, and a Gag! Thank you Gulf of Mexico for providing such a bountiful trip! The party on this charter got their exercise in today and kept the mate busy.
