Winter Time Fishing in the Bay!
Winter Time Fishing in the Bay!
Jan 9, 2024 Santa Rosa Beach
We have had some pretty cold weather here in the panhandle to start off our Winter. Temperatures have even dipped down in the low 20's which is pretty cold for our area. That being said, there are still fish to be caught. I've been targeting fish in deeper creeks and bayous where the water stays warmer and more consistent. This can take a little bit of searching, but when you do find the fish, they tend to be stacked up. With winter fishing I like to get a later start to the day. This allows the sun to come up and let the fish warm up a bit and get moving. Another added bonus to winter fishing is Sheepshead! These delicious fish tend to move into our bay and hang around structure once the water gets cold. In addition to trout and redfish these are some of my favorite fish to target in the winter.

So far October has absolutely been on fire for the bull redfish run. We are having lots of luck finding big schools of fish and using live and artificial baits.

Summer time fishing
Aug 9, 2023 Santa Rosa Beach
Summmer is definitely in full swing and the heat is getting up there with it. Summertime fishing is fun! Most of the time you’re on vacation and spending tons of time at the beach and eating good food. Why not go fishing as well? While its not my favorite time of the year to fish, due to the heat and the bite, it can still definitely be productive. Just like us humans these fish get hot as the temperature rises. Once we get into July and August, the fish start to get lethargic. They dont want to expend the energy chasing bait as much, just due to the water being so warm. However, with the right bait, and tactics you can get them to bite. The biggest factor is timing. Early morning and later evening’s are the best in the summer. After about 11am the bite tends to shut down due to the heat. So getting on it early and later is key. Lastly, if the redfish and trout bite is slow, you can always target spanish mackerel which are a fun fight on light tackle! Hope this report helps and look forward to seein you on the water!
