St. Augustine Fishing this past week

[Buck154]

Down in St. Augustine Florida to see my dad, brother and family. We got out fish 8-18 miles out and had a lot of big Red Snapper  that all released due to closed season. Reds upto 30 lbs. Was fun as always fishing with my dad and brother on my brothers 22' Mako. Didnt get to keek much to eat but had a lot of drag pulling.Sharks were all big with most around 150-200 lbs (they love bucktail jigs).

Yeah offshore was clear blue water. I video a couple of dolphins by the bow of the boat and looks like now water between us.

Pair of Dolphins while moving to another spot. Love how they will let my hand get with in inches of them but never touch them. Cool
