Goliath grouper are a protected species, catch and release only in FL. That being said their population has dramatically increased to the point of being a nuisance on any wreck or bottom structure in the Gulf, from Tampa southward.
PM me if you want some Captain recommendations out of Key West.

We caught and released 1 about 25 miles out of Yankee town Florida last June. And, we are pretty sure we hooked more, due to being broke off on almost every drop (not prepared for 250+ pound fish). If you have a boat and can find bottom structure, I think they may be easy to find nowadays in Florida.

A big AJ is bad enough....
