Fishing has been steady out of Fort Walton Beach lately. We’ve been finding red snapper and amberjack offshore while the shorter nearshore trips have kept families busy with red grouper and other species. September continues to offer plenty of action

September seems to be the magic month if you're looking for additional fish species to put in the box! Red Snapper and Triggerfish season is in full swing with Amberjack, Red Grouper, and Gag Grouper added to the list of fish to keep this month! Be sure to book a longer trip if you're wanting more time to tackle all of the species mentioned. Get a group of 6 people, whether family, buddies, or colleagues, and let's get out on the water for a fun-filled day!

Well the high pressure dome has finally started moving off to the West and it's really turned on the Vermillion Snapper, Triggerfish, Mangrove Snapper, and of course the Red Snapper bite is still red hot! 6hr trips are still seeing full limits of Red Snapper although a good majority of the Sows and Pearls have moved off into deeper cooler water. Plenty of great fishing still to be had and with September 1st just a few days away it's the perfect time to schedule a full day trip! Every species will be open from Amberjack to Gag Grouper and everything...
