Fishbuster Charters Captain Dave Hanson reported, "Bob and Lauren Peelman and their young children, Cameron and Dylan, fished a catch-and-release trip in southern Estero Bay’s backwaters, using live shrimp, on Tuesday morning, 7/13. They released eight mangrove snapper, five sheepshead, and a 21-inch snook.

Rick Holcomb and his three sons, Kyle, Jared, and Patrick fished 20 miles west of New Pass on Wednesday morning, 7/14/21, using cut-bait. They caught and released fifteen red grouper shorts, and caught two lane snapper, including one keeper. They also boxed twenty of thirty-five grunts, releasing the lucky fifteen that weren’t needed for fish tacos!"
