How far out were you?

Look like relatively shallow water specimens (no evidence of barotrauma) but if you were catching red snappers in amongst them I would have thought it would be out wide?

Lovely Harley Mike. They have the smallest of scales that get everywhere hey, unless you fillet and skin them without letting the finished fillet touch the filleting board. The taste is worth it though.
