 ADDITIONAL REMARKS: Tag removed fish released without a new tag. Very hungry fish. Ate a giant strip of grey snapper, and sat on the bottom with it. Didn’t know I had it on the line until I reeled that rod up to go home. Caught in a rockpile in 45′, with plenty of other red grouper and gray snapper around. 3-4′ seas.
