Did ya cut out the worms? Grouper is tasty but super wormy. Easy to cut out the worms if you hold it up to the light, but I don't eat grouper in restaurants anymore. Mutton snapper are one of the best tasting fish I've ever had.

Nice report and pics. Fishing the wrecks and reefs of the gulf is a blast. Lots of variety and some really good eats.

Funny to see you cranking on the spinning rod. Love the AJ's face in the first pic too. It looks like somethings coming at 'em. Nice fish Dan!

I always give away the white side.

Halibut worms are like vermicelli, grouper worms are more like grubs. Give a nice extra crunch.
