Nice catch...I need to get serious about doing some bottom fishing. But when the water is so nice and you can cruise I cant stop at the 35mile mark I have to hit the stream. I guess I will just have to leave my trolling gear at home one weekend.....Mark

Nice....grouper fishing is my favorite. Always a bunch of schoolies and some kings checking in on the light line.

Your moving in and I'm moving out. Get ready for long boat ride to the fishing grounds. Your average bottom fishing trip will be around 65 miles out.
Elton Bottom is between St Augustine and Jacksonville on the east coast.
Where in Tampa are you heading to ?
