There are also opportunities this time of year off all of the local piers and bay side beaches & piers but the surf fishing gulf side is winding down. This is the time of year when June grass can show up making surf fishing difficult, but if you just need to feel something pull, the lady fish and blue fish should still be there at first light.

On today's show we talk with Capt. Jordan Todd of Saltwater Obsessions out of Port St Joe, FL. He tells us about an epic day on the water he had recently fishing the beaches. They have done everything from catch monster trout inshore, run the beaches looking for tarpon and big jack crevelle to 40 miles out chasing grouper, mahi & sailfish.

On today's episode we talk with Capt. Jordan Todd of Saltwater Obsessions out of Port St Joe, FL. We talk about the improving Spring bite and the methods that are bringing fish to the boat. Along the beach is where most of the action can be found and this is the time of year to be prepared for many different scenarios as you could catch any thing from a Cobia to Pompano. The problem with running the beaches in the Spring is weather related. Windy days can force you to stay inshore and the good news is that there are plenty of opportunities to find success there as well but if you can run the beaches the fish are thick.

Lionel James of Lion's Tale Adventures out of Destin, FL. & we talk about fly fishing around the Destin area and some of the basics of the fly fishing in salt water. As a followup to last weeks episode about fly fishing at night for speckled trout we talk a little about the setup Lionel uses and the flies that seem to work well under the dock lights as he prepares for another night trip later this evening. Fly fishing can be as complicated or as simple as you want to make it but at the end of the day it adds some new challenges vs fishing with traditional gear & definitely worth exploring if you are looking for a new way to spend time on the water.

On today's episode we talk with Capt. Brant Peacher of AnglerUp with Brant out of Pensacola, FL. We talk about the recent surf fishing and how pretty much every species that should be feeding on the beach is there. That being said, this is a great time of year to surf fish or cruise the beach in a boat. If it's too rough to head offshore to take advantage of the upcoming Red Snapper season, there is still plenty of opportunity within the bay system. Brant gives us some general insight into bottom fishing inshore around Pensacola and some of the opportunities you could expect.

On today's episode we talk with Capt. Lionel James of Lion's Tale Adventures out of Destin, FL. He tells us about a night time trout bite on the fly. It sounds like if you want to avoid the heat and the crowds of the day time, the dock lights might be something to try. Not to mention that there's tons of trout & redfish under the lights! Capt. Lionel says the transition to spring seems to be in limbo but with a few warm days ahead, it could bust loose any day now.

On today's show we talk with Capt. Jordan Todd with Saltwater Obsessions out of Port St Joe, FL. The wind has been blowing since we talked last week and that makes it tough to chase all of the fish moving along the beach this time of year. If you can get out the pompano, Spanish, bluefish, jack crevelle & redfish are all there and be sure to keep an eye out for cobia too. Inshore the redfish and speckled trout bite has been solid and the pilchards are expected to show up in full force any day now. It should be another great week as the temps continue to trend in the right direction!

On today's episode we talk with Capt. Brant Peacher of AnglerUp with Brant out of Pensacola, FL. He tells us about a beach trip that he is actually returning from this afternoon when we talked.

On today's episode we talk with Capt. Jordan Todd of Saltwater Obsessions out of Port St Joe, FL. We talk about catching bait and the best way to approach it if you aren't on the water every day. We also talk about a few recent client trips & talk about conservation of speckled trout. This is the time of year they move onto the flats to spawn. The important thing to remember is to release the bigger females that are more than likely full of eggs. A couple of rules to note, the female trout are always the big gators that everyone is after. That makes it really important to quickly release them after some measurements and a pic or two. Secondly, the males make grunting sounds when brought to hand, those are the ones you want to keep.

On today's episode we talk with Capt. Justin Leake of Panama City Inshore out of Panama City Beach, FL. We talk about the Spring time bite and it sounds like it is completely transitioned to the Spring patterns. The Cobia numbers are improved so far this year over the previous few years, the Spanish, jack crevelle, redfish & pompano have all taken up their spring time residence on the beach, so if you can get a weather window to check it out, it will be worth the effort this time of year. Inshore the bay fishing has come alive as the trout are starting to spawn as the bait moves back in. All in all, it's a great time of year to get out on the water!

On today's episode we talk with Capt. Brant Peacher of AnglerUp with Brant out of Pensacola, FL. We talk about land based fishing, specifically pier fishing. With Spring Break & the Summer months approaching, there will be a lot of new visitors to the area and some of them will want to wet a line. The piers in the FL Panhandle offer outstanding fishing opportunities for those that don't have access to a boat or if it's just too rough to get out. Brant & I talk about some of the pier rules, written & unwritten as well as some basic etiquette that will help you to have the best experience possible. Lastly, I forgot to mention that Pensacola is on fire right now Cobia, Pompano, Spanish are all being caught regularly.

On today's episode we talk with Capt. Lionel James of Lion's Tale Adventures out of Destin, FL. He tells us about the red hot sheepshead bite at the Destin Bridge. The weather has been dicey at best and on those Spring days when the wind is howling & a cold front shuts down the other species, that's when its time to get after the Sheepshead. You can even exit your vessel and fish directly from a piling if it is too bumpy. Hopefully warmer water temps are right around the corner and a few consecutive days will push things into Spring. 

On today's show we talk with Capt. Jordan Todd with Saltwater Obsessions out of Port St Joe, FL. & it sounds like Spring is just right there. In fact, if the wind dies down the bite should go off in a day or two. With a week or even a few days of no cold fronts or wind the Spring pattern will kick off in full numbers. There are still fish to be caught but it has been challenging given the increased wind. Capt. Jordan tells us how he is fishing them on these windy days & talks about nabbing a Cobia when the wind dies down!
