Red Snapper
Venturing offshore from Port Bolivar presents a chance to tangle with Red Snapper. These prized fish are typically found around reefs, wrecks, and other submerged structures in the Gulf of Mexico. The key is to find the right structure and present your bait effectively. The summer months, when the federal season is open, are prime time for targeting Red Snapper. Use heavy tackle and a variety of baits, including live or dead baitfish and vertical jigs. A local tip: many captains use GPS coordinates of known snapper hotspots, so consider booking a charter for your first trip to learn the ropes. Pay close attention to depth finders to locate promising structure. Remember that Red Snapper regulations are strictly enforced, so stay informed about the current season and size limits.
