Red grouper may reach 'ACL' forcing season closure

Lately, there has been a killer red grouper bite near shore. Unfortunately, it seems the red grouper bite is only getting better and better, but anglers will likely see an announcement next week that red grouper will be closing for the year due to the 'ACL,' or 'Annual Catch Limit' being met or projected to be met, says Captain Dylan Hubbard of Hubbard’s Marina.
