By Pam Anderson

The fall Amberjack season has changed from August only to September and October!
Get your gear ready and reservations made for some exciting Gulf fishing! Amberjack ‘keepers’ are 34” long so you need to have some serious muscle to bring in these beauties. Such fun! Charter boats and guide boats all along Grand Lagoon are gearing up for a great time! All that’s missing is you! Capt. Anderson’s Marina has 40 charter and guide boats available, and Treasure Island has quite a few too. Be sure to reserve early!
