Florida Road Trip 2012/2013 [Part 2 of 2]

Don't know man...I think that top Mangrove is yours...I seem to remember you caught one that evening...I remember because you asked me what it was...I think...it's been 6 months (that's why it's good to write the report IMMEDIATELY )

Check out my report again...my grover was hooked on the left side...and it didn't have that split in the soft dorsal fin...I caught another small grover but that was the first or second fish I caught when we first got there, so the picture wouldn't look as if it was caught in low light periods...plus, that one was small.

Don't see the blemish on top of the jaw of my grover either....and the colour is much lighter in my fish...

Look at the grooves on the concrete as well...that grover on your camera look smaller than mine also...

Best way to check though...the time stamp (or Create Date) of your picture...I think my fish hit at around 1am...some time late at night. I'll check it tonight to confirm...(Yep...my "big" grover was caught at 01:11 according to my camera...the other grover I caught early in the afternoon was at 15:32...so the fish you photographed at 12am is definitely not one of mine...and it has to be yours).

Ok...with all the pics, I really think yours is a different fish. You don't see that distinct red marking in the middle of the scale on my fish...your fish has that distinct colouration right down to the belly area.

Also...noticed in that second pic of yours you had that J hook on the high/low rig...mine was caught on the shark rig, remember? And we didn't have any other rods near it aside from the other shark rods at the time...
