Fishing in Florida Panhandle

Florida Panhandle fishing charters offer unparalleled access to some of the Gulf Coast’s most productive waters, catering to anglers of all experience levels. Known for its year-round diversity, the region boasts exceptional inshore, nearshore, and offshore opportunities. Summer months bring peak action for species like Red Snapper, Grouper, and King Mackerel, while fall sees aggressive runs of Tarpon, Redfish, and Speckled Trout along the coastline. The Panama City, Pensacola, and Fort Walton Beach areas serve as prime departure points, where expert captains leverage decades of local knowledge to tailor trips based on seasonal patterns and angler preferences.

Family-friendly experiences thrive in these calm bays and estuaries, where beginners and children can target Sheepshead, Spotted Seatrout, and Flounder. Offshore enthusiasts venture beyond the emerald waters for pelagics like Mahi Mahi, Sailfish, and Blackfin Tuna, particularly during summer migrations. The flexibility of charter operations ensures optimal fishing windows, with captains adjusting locations based on weather and bite patterns. All gear, licenses, and fish cleaning are typically included, allowing guests to focus solely on the adventure. Whether pursuing trophy Bull Redfish in shallow flats or battling Amberjack near offshore reefs, the Florida Panhandle delivers memorable saltwater action across its dynamic ecosystems.

Florida Panhandle Fishing Seasons

January

Start your year off in the right way by experiencing some Panhandle angling action! Explore the reefs for Snapper and Grouper, or hook Redfish and Trout in one of the many bays.

February

This is the perfect time to target Bull Redfish and have some of the Gulf’s most productive inshore waters all to yourself! If you prefer bottom fishing, the reefs are swarming with Snapper.

March

It’s still too cold for pelagic fishing, but if you’re looking to test your stamina, you can target the first Cobia around the Gulf’s reefs. Inshore, you can hook Redfish and Trout in the bays.

April

If you’re targeting Speckled Trout and Redfish, April sees even more of these species flocking to the Panhandle’s bays and shallow coastal waters. Cobia appear by the reefs in full force, too.

May

Pelagic species start arriving offshore, and huge Groupers can be hooked around the reefs. Inshore fishing for Bull Redfish and Trout remains as strong as ever, and Cobia are still putting up a fight.

June
Tarpon season is well and truly here! Come bow to the “Silver King” along the Gulf’s shallow coastal waters. Big game fishing more your thing? Troll offshore for hard-fighting Mahi Mahi.
 
July

If you’ve got your sights set on inshore fishing, head to one of the Panhandle’s numerous bays, which are still full of fish. Offshore enthusiasts can chase Mahi Mahi, Marlin, Tuna, and more in the deep.

August

Red Snapper can be found around the Panhandle’s reefs, if the season still allows, while huge Redfish and Flounder are in the bays’ deeper waters. Offshore, troll for Marlin, Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Sharks, and more.

September

The weather is still warm and the Panhandle’s fishing is red hot. Hook Redfish and Trout in the bays, fish the reefs for Grouper and Snapper, or target big game species offshore. You’re spoiled for choice!

October

October means one thing when it comes to inshore fishing – huge Bull Reds! Hit the bays to get your fill, or you can head to the reefs to find some Grouper Snapper species. It's all about filling the freezer!

November
Flats fishing in the bays and along the Gulf’s coast takes center stage in November, with this being the time to hook tasty Flounder. Bring along a cooler, as the chances are that you’ll fill it to the brim.
December

Why not round off the year with some exciting fishing? Although the temperature is cooler, Speckled Trout and Redfish fishing inshore is still hot, while you can also sink your hok into the last of the Flounders.
