We are almost nearing our mark, having reached a depth of 100’ deep. As we move lower, we anticipate at catching our prime prize, the grouper.

Since fishing is our biggest priority at the moment, we make use of our large rig that is made up of a weighty snap-swivel coupled with the main line and then a leader of approximately three feet that weighs not more than one hundred pounds and attach these elements to the main line. For a complete fit, we attach that 8/0 hook on the other side of the line, a much-needed gadget to catch that prime piece of marine meat. For extra immersion, we have to attach as an additional set of lead just to keep the entire line submerged under water. The amount of lead to get used gets dictated by wind and tide, and usually, ranges between twelve and twenty oz.

Being the smart angler that you are, you have to attach that baitfish to your hook to get the much-desired catch just like the Easy Gulf Coast Grouper Fishing.

As a best practice, you should only consider using a fishing rod that is flexible, yet rigid enough, to counter the upward and downward movement of the entire line as your grouper takes the bait.

Whereas most people opt for a more rigid fishing rod, the flexible one always emerges as the superior of the two. With an adjustable rod, you have the opportunity to go home smiling mainly because the flexible rod helps the submerged bait move to and fro the bottom of the water, using the lake’s floor as a guide.
