Large Common Snappers are easy to come by where i'm at in Massachusetts. So although I keep them occasionally for brief periods, I rarely keep them for more than a year at a time. I will try to bring up some pics later on. Did you see the ones I posted below (a rediculously tame common snapper)? Thanx, Leo

The largest one that IÕve known of, and can personally attest to, was the one that I kept for two years. It had an 18-and-a-half-inch shell and weighed 45 lbs. when caught. They are listed in the record books as bigger, but IÕve never seen one.
