When I was a boy growing up in Florida, a friend of my Dad’s fished for Jewfish, also known as Goliath Grouper, from railroad bridges near Ft. Meyers. He used 1/8 inch steel cable, hooks made from 1/2 inch steel rebar, floats made from Clorox bottles, a whole fryer chicken as bait & a 4+ inch piece of bamboo for a pole. He waved the pole back & forth in a figure 8 pattern, then waited. The cable was bolted to the bumper of his El Camino which was used to pull the fish out of the water. They are now protected, due to over fishing. This is what I remember them looking like-

Believe it or not, that’s actually a baby
Goliath grouper fishing has been strictly tightened down over the last few decades, they were really being over fished. I've heard that divers on wrecks in the southern Gulf and Atlantic have seen goliath's the size of moving vans.
