Wind blows east....fish will feast!

Panama City - Saltwater Fishing Report

What a beautiful day. Light winds out of the east and southeast along with mild temps made for a great day on the water.
The east wind tends to make some new fish show up and the ones that are here bite a little better.
The spanish bite was good today and there was plenty of action for the live baiters on the boat. There are a lot of sharks in the bay, all sizes and shapes.
I won't be running any trips on Saturdays for the rest of the summer although I will run Friday night trips. These night trips can include trout fishing under docks, black snaps and reds in the pass and shark fishing. I can do combination of any two of those. A really fun trip is black snaps and reds in the pass for the first two hours and shark fishing later. On a good night the shark bite can be quick and easy.

We are starting to catch some grouper in the bay. This is the time of year for that and will last until fall.
