Panama City - Saltwater Fishing Report
Could his second time fly fishing in salt water be better than the first. First day was over 30 fish. The weather this morning was almost brutal. I heard the weather man say it was going to blow but when I walked the dogs this morning the bay was slick. We hit the water around 0930 with a brisk wind out of the North West starting to pick up. The temp was in the 40's, who knew what the day would hold.
After looking around a couple of spots at the mouth of Warren Bayou for some reds I hit my favorite spot dropped the hook and told Lou to start casting. He immediately boated a fish and then another and another. He had beat Sunday morning by the end of the first hour. The wind was freshening and after about 2 hours of catching fish, over 50, we decided to try and find some reds. After looking and fishing a couple of spots not a red to be found. Lou caught many trout, most bigger than three days ago and some nice skipjack.
