Panama City - Saltwater Fishing Report
The best duck season in many years has come and gone. We started out opening weekend with redheads, widgeon and ruddy ducks with cans, bluebills, pins, goldeneyes, teal and many more redheads throughout. There were only two days we didn't get redheads this year and that was because of all the extra duck dynasty guys out there. I have been guiding ducks here longer than all the other duck guides together...think about that before you book next year. I don't put a lot of pictures up because I am watched and actively sought so people can be lazy and not find birds on their own. We hunted 7 different bays and lakes this year with a lot of success. Please go to my Facebook page; jp2fish.com and check out some of my videos.
Fishing is already good. The sheepshead bite has began, there are some big trout to catch and the redfish are in the pass. On a nice day we can go offshore for grouper, various snappers and flounder. If you want to catch a bunch of fish for fun, the hot water canal is full of trout, jacks and reds although all have to be released.
Panama City Fishing Forecast:
Hot water discharge canal holding a lot of fish, all catch and release.
Some reds in the pass along with sheeps. Sheeps up in the bay.
Grouper and other species on the inshore wrecks on a nice day.
Target Species:
all of the above
