Red snapper are plentiful and so are the kings.

Pensacola - Saltwater Fishing Report
Red snapper are plentiful and so are the kings.
Fishing has been very good the past few days, but now we have a tropical storm in the gulf named Dolly, which will keep me in the bay for the next few days, because the swells out in the gulf and along the beaches are anything but swell.
The nearshore red snapper bite has been off the charts.
I've been getting my clients their limit on every trip and still get the persistent king mackerel from time to time.
After we hit the red snapper hole, we've been going in and drifting the pass for a few reds or go sit in the bay and do a bit of shark fishing.
Summer fishing has been very exciting and it's not nearly over. August and September are great months for red snapper and kings out in the gulf. If you don't like heading out to deeper water, then red fishing in the pass and drifting the flats for specks might be the way to go.
If you're heading down to Pensacola, give me a ring, and we'll get you hooked up on the MEGA-BITE. ------------ 850-341-9816
Till next time, here's wishing you bent rods and screaming drags.
