Pensacola - Saltwater Fishing Report
Here's a quick report for inshore fishing around our area from Mega-Bite Inshore Charters. Again, lots of rain still, but I've been lucky to get out and have some fun trips.
On these trips we're catching trout, redfish, ladyfish, bluefish, and even some Spanish mackerel mixed in. The main catch is trout with a few reds busting on the baits.
The water is pretty murky from all this rain, but I like it when it's murky, because I find the bite is better sometimes and the fish are much less leader shy.
Depths fished are 1.5 –5 ft.
Areas fished are: Escambia Bay, Santa Rosa Sound, Pensacola Bay, and Big Lagoon.
My trips are 99% artificial, which are fun for my northern bass fishermen clients.
If you're a freshwater fisherman and love to toss artificials, then my style of charters is right up your alley.
Want to learn how to use artificials or introduce your kids to this style of fishing? Are you a seasoned angler and want a professional trip? Well, look no further. With my 40 years of fishing and expertise, I can assure you have professional trip on your vacation to the gulf coast.
If the heat of July and August keeps you inside where the a/c is keeping things cool, then maybe a monster redfish trip is worth the wait. November is only a few months away, so I'll look forward to taking you out then for the fishing experience of the year. We have a blast in the fall/early winter chasing after the big bull reds, and if you can't stand the summer heat and the crowds, this is the perfect time of year for you to visit the gulf coast.
See my November Reports from last year and see the big reds we caught.
I know it's hunting season, but put the bows and rifles down for a few days and come visit me and catch all the trophy reds you want.
If you can't wait for the reds, then give me a call now, and we'll get you out on the water early enough to avoid the noontime heat, and we'll still have a blast catching trout, reds, and other summertime species.
Back at it again all next week.
Tight Lines.
