Panhandle and Big Bend (Suwannee to Pensacola)

Sunny Skys and Great Fishing in the Panhandle - Dust off your sunglasses and hook up the boat, because the wind has died down and the rain has finally let up.

Destin, Navarre, Pensacola fishing report - The water temperature is finally getting right, but the excessive amount of rain in the past three weeks has the water muddy and the salinity level is way too low to keep the fish happy in shallow water. We are catching good numbers of Spanish macker more...

Hang On Boys, It's Gonna Blow ! - And Blow, and Blow. I know it's Spring and the natural order of things has it blustery some days but this is getting old. The fronts keep coming and the surf stays up. It's been a good year to be skinny guy with a surfboard! While we have had some be more...

Double Espresso, with some specs and spanish. - Did we get some rain last week? Was able to fish one day. Caught those big trout that you saw in my last report.

Can't Fight the Weather - Whoeever said you can't fight Mother Nature lied- You can always fight but when you lose to her it's never pretty! The weather pattern has had the fronts coming so fast that we can't get a break from having to fight some part of nature to go fish more...
