I spent many a weekend chasing "red Snapper" as a young man. H*ll, I'd chase all kinds of snapper with mixed results but, one thing was clear ... I could never get enough!

Now I know things have changed and there may not be as much snapper as there used to be but, to me... they look much easier to catch these days. Maybe if the snapper were more difficult to catch there wouldn't be such a crisis.

Since I've been married, I don't go lookin' for snapper anymore so... now I just drive my boat for fun on weekends.
