Grouper
Grouper fishing out of Moss Point, Mississippi, demands a trip into the Gulf of Mexico, as these fish inhabit deeper offshore waters. While not as abundant as in some other Gulf locations, dedicated anglers can find success targeting these prized fish around natural reefs, artificial structures, and wrecks. The best time to target grouper is generally during the cooler months, particularly fall and early winter, before they move to deeper water. Employ heavy tackle and strong braided line to haul these brutes from the depths. A local tactic is to use live bait like pinfish or grunts, fished on a Carolina rig near the bottom. Be sure to consult the latest regulations regarding size and bag limits, as they can change frequently. Remember to check weather conditions before heading offshore, and always prioritize safety at sea.
