Mutton snapper are one of the most prized reef and bottom species in South Florida. They are powerful, wary fish that reward good presentation and patience, and larger muttons are a true trophy on light or medium tackle.
Where we fish
Muttons can be found around reefs, ledges and other bottom structure. Depth and location change with current, season and bait.
Techniques
Natural bait and carefully presented bottom rigs are common tools. We adjust weight and presentation to the current so baits fish naturally.
Keeping fish
Harvest depends on current regulations, season and size. Legal fish can be cleaned after the trip.
Book a mutton snapper trip
Tell Captain Kevin your preferred date, group size and whether mutton snapper is the main goal or part of a mixed-bag offshore trip. Conditions change, so direct trip planning is the best way to choose the right duration.
