Trolling out, Bottom fishing in

Unless you like to kingfish (which I don't) now is the time to bottom fish off Northeast Florida. Mangrove snapper, red snapper and vermillion snapper are all over live bottom from 90-160ft of water. Light line, live bait fished at elton bottom right now should do great for the mangroves. Keep a pitch bait ready for a Cobia too!

Red snapper are anywhere from 60-180ft with some scamps and gag grouper mixed in. Watch out for the afternoon thunderstorms!
