Panama City - Saltwater Fishing Report
I had the pleasure of spending the morning in Warren Bayou with one of our nations finest, Jason Milbrandt USMC, teaching him to fly fish.
The great thing about this time of year is all the fish piled up in Warren Bayou. Sure, they don't have a lot of weight most days but I never heard anyone complain about catching 30 plus fish fly fishing.
Jason went from beginner to gaining a sense of casting and catching by the end of the trip. Fly fishing is easy once you master a few of the fundamentals which he did with ease. Here's a couple pictures of his fish including his first ever, a ladyfish, on the fly. Good luck Jason, tight loops!
Panama City Fishing Forecast:
Weather looks like it will remain on the brisk side for another week. That means Warren Bayou for consistant action. March 1st it will open to catch and keep.
If the weather continues to be cold look for the season to start slow. Spanish, sheeps, cobia, everything will be slow to get going with these unseasonably cool temps.
Target Species:
Winter fishing means, hot water canal, bayous, creeks and deep water aroung the bridges.
