About Lindberg Circle Reef 1A

Lindberg Circle Reef 1A is an artificial reef in federal Gulf waters off Destin, Florida, where placed structure draws reef fish and passing pelagics. Red Snapper peak from April through July, and Gray Snapper peak from May through August. Greater Amberjack show strongest in April and May, and Gag Grouper peak from October through December alongside resident Red Grouper. King Mackerel patrol the area from April through October. Bottom fishing with live pinfish, cigar minnows, or cut bait works the reef for snapper and grouper, while slow trolling live cigar minnows or menhaden around the structure targets King Mackerel.
