Fishbuster Charters' Captain Dave Hanson reported, "Sara Liegel had arranged an offshore fishing trip for herself, her husband Ryan, her parents, Wyon and Mary-Jo Wiegratz, and her brother, Nathan, for Tuesday, 11/17/15. But, the winds and seas began building over the preceding weekend and, by Tuesday morning, they were four-to-six feet offshore. We rescheduled the trip for Thursday, 11/19, when seas had calmed down considerably, though it was still a bit sloppy offshore. We fished near-shore, in spots eight to twelve miles west of new pass, using live shrimp. The family released ten red grouper to 20 inches. They boxed fifteen keeper lane snapper to 13 inches and a dozen grunts to 12 inches.

Rain and cooler temperatures approached the area of n Friday, and winds and seas are predicted to pick up substantially again by Sunday. We'll fish when we can!"
