Lane Snapper, also known as Mexican Snapper, Redtail Snapper, Spot Snapper, or Candy Snapper, is a delicious catch available year-round along the Gulf Coast. These fish typically measure around 14 inches but can grow up to 23 inches and weigh up to 5 pounds. Lane Snappers are prized for their sweet flavor and firm flesh, which comes from their varied diet of shrimp and crab. Perfect for a variety of cooking methods, you can prepare Lane Snapper just like any other Snapper.  Captain Chip Day recommends a 6+ hr trip using bottom fishing methods and will ensure the best experience.
