The American Red Snapper's body is very similar in shape to other snappers. All feature a sloped profile, medium-to-large scales, a spiny dorsal fin, and a laterally compressed body.

When American red snapper bite on a line, they tend to be nibblers and pickers, and a soft touch is needed when trying to catch them. Favorite baits include squid, whole medium-sized fish,
and small strips of fish such as amberjack.

These beautiful fish make a great trophy but even a better meal! We took a chef and his family out for a half day of beautiful Florida sunshine and some exciting fishing. The dad, Eric, was looking to get something to bring back for a one-of-a-kind supper for their dinner that night.

The whole family took turns at casting a line out and Taylor, the youngest son, caught a huge bright American red snapper. That was good enough for dad! Back on shore, Eric invited us back to their house and treated us all to the best snapper we have ever had the chance to eat. Thanks to Eric and his family for letting us enjoy the meal and evening with them!
