These impressive fish can grow up to 4 feet long and weigh up to 50 lbs, though most catches average between 5-10 lbs. Known for its mild, distinctive flavor, Red Grouper is often described as sweeter and milder than Black Grouper, with a subtle shellfish taste. Its firm texture and large flakes make it a versatile choice for various recipes. For optimal results, we recommend a 6+ hour trip, with many successful catches occurring during 10-12 hour excursions in deep waters off the coast.
