Cold weather is starting to taper off, days are getting longer and the fish have started to move into their spring patterns. We have had some of the coldest and wettest winter weather you can imagine this year. It can only get better. The month before it all begins let's go down the check list. The boat is ready to go serviced, waxed, and fixed up by the factory.
Thanks Lake and Bay Boats!

The tackle is all cleaned and sorted with new power pro on all the Shimano Rods and Reels. The trailer has been greased; the tires and brakes checked. The only thing to do is go fishing. We have started booking several trips late this month and into March so don't wait until you get to Pensacola Beach before you book your fishing trip.

Now.... the Bull Redfish have been hanging around the Gulf side of Pensacola Beach near the pier and Perdido Key around the Eden. These Redfish are mostly over the Florida slot which is 18-27 inches. The white trout are hanging around the Pensacola Bay Fishing Bridge and surrender to the gulp shrimp on a jig head. The Cobia will start to move down the beach sooner than later and the first fish will be caught down around Destin or Panama City beach in a matter of weeks. The Sheepshead are still migrating toward the passes. Good reports of sheepshead being caught around the Bob Sykes Bridge and the Three Mile Bridge within the last few weeks. The surf fishing will also get much better as the sun starts to shine. The Pompano, Whiting and Redfish can be caught right out in front of your condo.

Let us be your Pensacola Fishing Guides.

Thanks

January Fishing Report

The New Year has started off with a bang. Cold weather, heavy rain, lots of wind and of course Redfish. There have been a lot of days when we just couldn't get out, either too cold or way too cold. We did manage a few trips in the weather windows that were blessed with this last month, and did very well. The redfish stayed down the beach in the clean salty water. There have been good reports from the bridges and some of the passes as well.

The Sheepshead and Black Drum have moved out and can be found on some of well known structures of the area. The Flounder have also stayed strong on the close reefs and wrecks off Pensacola in the Gulf. Please come enjoy an Inshore Charter with us here in Pensacola Florida.
