| We headed out on Tuesday the 30th with a full crew of family and friends (7 people total) and a boatload of live bait in search of some new years grouper. We were greeted by calm seas and then some hungry fish. Our first stop yielded a nice gag, a few scamp and all the 32-36" amberjack you could shake a stick at. The fish bit real good in the morning and turned off in the middle of the day before picking back up late. We mixed in some deep dropping and added a mixture of yellowedges, snowies, tilefish and one unidentified fish from the deep (500-600'). We later came back up on the hill and finished off our limit of grouper with 4 more gags and some real nice scamp. The very last fish we caught was a nice 32.4 lb gag that was our box topper. At the end of the day, the fishbox was full with a limit of jacks and mixed limit of groupers made up of nice variety. Here are some pictures: 
Dad's first gag of the day 
Mystery fish (it looks like a cross between a rosie and a queen snapper but not sure) 
JR's snowy 
Box topper! 
Nice healthy snapper 
A pic of a few of the groupers before we cleaned them this morning 
A perfect end to a perfect day!

Nice :, Wish I was out there with you. Very nice size on the gags. I know all about sharks eating your grouper in front of you . Did you kill the rascal ? Gene
You never know unless you go.

Happy new year! Looks like you guys had a good day out and the seas looked calm, when the seas are calm it's always a good day. I don't go out in anything 3 feet or more anymore.
