This is from dec but they are just starting to show back up with the blackfin tuna in close.
8 over 100# were caught on the piers (Pcola & Navarre )
And 3 by boat,
Hooked ours around 7am , fought for a hr 15 min , at the end the angler just felt " dead weight " , we thought maybe it got 🦈 sharked, but it actually had a heart attack and was dead as a door nail!!!!
150# on a certified ifga scale, hooked it in 35ft , landed in 40ft. Crazy stuff!

We loved out fishing experience with Colin! He was a great captain and showed us lots of cool wildlife and nature in the area. We caught a variety of different fish, and he taught us how to fish really well!

Great trip! Tony and his crew waste no time in finding the fish and getting you on the right spot to be successful. The first mates (Chris and Reed) were great, make it simple for beginners and get your fish cleaned up and ready to eat. Highly recommend the experience.

What a great fishing guide! He made our 3 hour trip on the water a successful day to remember. We caught red fish, drum fish, and sheep's head. He cleaned, filet the fish, and packed them on ice for us. This captain knows where this fish are and treats the customers right! Thank you for a great experience on the gulf Captain Bobby. We will definitely be back to fish again and not with anyone else. Best guide ever!
