Caught a bunch of drum and snapper today. The first pic is of the one that the wife and I had for supper. The second is of one of the snapper. Is this a mangrove snapper? If so, is there a minimum size?

Yes it is a Mangrove Snapper, Mango, Grey Snapper and they must be at least 10" with a daily bag limit of 5 per angler.

Sorry Mayport Mogan, but GillAgin is correct on his post!!

Gray (Mangrove) Snapper have a 10" Minimum Size Limit with a Daily Bag Limit of 5.....

Nearly a perfect match on the picture too, RR:

WTG on the rules, Gill!!

PS: There is a "Snapper - All Other" category that is 12" so that was probably the confusion....
