Red snapper are most common in the northern Gulf of Mexico, followed by the western Gulf and least common in southern Florida. Small and medium red snapper have a strong attraction to any sort of bottom relief or obstruction - reefs, rocks, ledges, wrecks, offshore oil and gas platforms, and even such small things on the bottom as pipeline valves and 55-gallon drums. As red snapper become larger, over 10 pounds, they seem to spend more time on relatively open bottom. Frequently, concentrations of large 'sow' snapper over 20 pounds in weight, are located on open, obstruction less, clay bottoms.

Red snappers are caught more frequently in shallower offshore waters in the cooler months than in the warmer months. Whether this is due to actual movement of the fish shoreward in the fall and winter, or due to changes in feeding behavior of fish that are present year round is open to debate. Red snappers are usually found in depths between 50 feet and 300 feet. Juvenile red snappers under 10 inches long live in shallower waters, over mud and sand bottoms. Red snappers are an overall rosy-red color.

The color fades slightly below. Key characteristics are their red eye, the anal fin being pointed rather than rounded, and the lack of a black spot on each side in individuals over 10 inches long. Red snappers spawn over 20 times a year at 4 to 6 day intervals between late May and early October, with a peak in June-August.

Red snappers spawn in early evening. Their eggs and larvae are free-floating and at the mercy of currents. Bo Diddley The Chess Box Rarlab. Red snappers are often thought of territorial fish that do not move much as adults. Recent research has shown that red snappers may move around more than commonly thought. In the late 1990s, researchers caught, tagged, and released almost three thousand red snappers in the northern Gulf. Almost 19% of these tagged fish were recaptured.

Only about 26% of the fish tagged were in the same place one year later. The average tagged fish moved 18.6 miles before recapture.

Tagged red snappers were found to move further and faster than ordinary when hurricanes affected an area. The longest distance moved was 219 miles. Red snappers are considered reef fish, so it would be logical to assume that they eat smaller creatures from the reefs. Interestingly, most of their diet has been found to consist of creatures that live on mud bottoms, so red snappers get very little nutritional benefit from reefs. Fish are the number one item in their diet, with the most common ones being pipefish, snake eels, searobins, pinfish, striped anchovies, cusk eels, and pigfish. Stomatopods (king shrimp or sea lice) are the second most important food item, followed by several species of crabs.
