2021, Slow Pitch Jigging - Grouper Fishing
Slow pitch jigging for grouper is a super productive fishing technique for targeting fish where they are and not just on the bottom. At times fish will feed just off the bottom or even higher in the water column, depending on where the bait is situated. The real difference between slow pitch jigging and speed jigging is the ability to keep your jigs at a specific depth while working them. The fluttering motion that you can sustain within a given band of the water column mimics that of a wounded bait fish, whereas speed jigging mimics that of a fleeing fish. You can take advantage of feeding triggers versus trying to elicit a reaction strike when cranking a jig back to the surface. Learn more about the jigging technique, fighting technique, the rods, reels and jigs used for slow pitch jigging grouper and snapper with this In The Spread fishing video.

2021, Bottom Fishing for Grouper
Bottom fishing for grouper is all about being over the right type of sea floor structure. Off the west coast of Florida lie some of the most productive bottom fishing grounds in the Gulf of Mexico. For the fishing we cover in this In The Spread fishing video, we will be in 150-200 feet of water. We will be dropping from our boat as we use the current to drift across targeted structure. This structure is made up of a combination of natural reefs and wrecks. The reef consist of a series of both high and low relief limestone ledges and pinnacles. Kevin Adney, our featured instructor for this video, has fine tuned his bottom fishing program over many years. He has a very simple approach to bottom fishing for grouper and snapper. The most technical part of this type of fishing is drift management. Kevin will share his knowledge and experience on all aspects of his style of fishing, so you can go out and have the same level of success as he enjoys.

You could very well hook Vermillion Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Lane Snapper, Red Snapper, Gag Grouper, Scamp Grouper, Red Grouper, Amberjack, Kingfish, Cobia or sharks. While we set out to target red snapper, we quickly found ourselves on a really good grouper bite. Once you have a clear understanding of what\'s biting, you can then dial in your offerings.
