Pensacola - Saltwater Fishing Report

The Spring Breakers have gone home, and I need a nap. What a great 6 weeks of fishing! Countless sheepshead, and by far, the best bull redfish bite for March and April since I've been guiding.
This big red was caught a few days back. My client Jeff told me this was the biggest red of his life.

I've got a few days off to get my tackle organized for the next run of trips. May is right around the corner and that's when I'll be hitting the flats going after some gator trout and sight-fishing reds.
Here's a few pics from Saturday's trip.
I guided Mike and his son Austin from Minnesota. They came down to visit the Gulf coast to see what all the Red Drum hype was all about. They found out firsthand, and caught 6 big ‘uns. They also had a great time hooking up sheepshead and watching all the guides work the ledges today. The bite was great, and it was good to see everyone out on the water.


Keep checking back for more inshore light tackle action.
All redfish were released to be caught another day.
Tight Lines.
