Panama City - Saltwater Fishing Report

This has been the hottest October I can remember. The fishing has been good. With bow season opening on Saturday I, along with a lot of other people, have been praying for some cool weather. Looks like we are going to get it, not cool though, cold!
When I'm sitting in my stand Saturday morning looking to stick a deer with an arrow I won't be wishing I was fishing.
Today "4lb" and I caught some spanish, ladies, blues out in the big bay and then went to a little honey hole. Some small reds were put in the boat but no pictures because of the rain. Later, we hit a spot with a bunch of young spinner sharks. All weighing in between eight and fifteen pounds these dudes are more fun than you can imagine. Jumping and spinning, slapping baits off the top of the water and ripping drag. More fun than should be legal.
We put a small one in the boat after a couple of jumps for a picture. The other two shots are pictures from Tuesday that didn't load onto the report.



Panama City Fishing Forecast:

This cold front should trigger everything from the spanish in the bay, to the flounder moving to the gulf, bonito around and in the pass, making everything else get excited and start moving. After the initial blow on Saturday and Sunday the fishing should take a turn for the even better than it is.
Target Species:

Fishing is good and should ramain that way for all species through November.
