John, it’s all the way up the west coast of Florida as well.
Most if not all wrecks over there it’s pretty much a guarantee that you will encounter a Goliath.
Imagine that. Another fish that they’ll protect until it’s a problem for everyone. Then tell you that you can keep a 1/4 of one per day. But only in state waters on Monday Thursday and Sunday if the day is an odd number on the calendar. Oh yeah, “snapper check” that one too. You need to carry a 100 lb weight or a sharpened 2” stainless steel pipe to vent them. Hope your season is successful. Send us your money for your license, the reef thingy… oh would u like to donate?? 🙄🙄
