Reported 1 month ago

September is an awesome month for fishing right now since nearly every species is in season, Gag Grouper, Red Snapper, Amberjack, Triggerfish, Vermillion and Lane Snappers, Red Grouper, Spanish and King Mackerel, Mahi Mahi, even some Redfish inshore! Some species will close at the end of the month but the fishing in October is still going to be on fire with all but a few species above still open season.

Reported 1 month ago

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
