Choctawhatchee Bay Weather Forecast
Fishing reports straight from our guides in Choctawhatchee Bay
Trolling is at 50/50 right now but bottom fishing is really good if you can get through the triggerfish! The FWC is going to have to make a no limit on them as they are taking over Reefs and Wrecks, we usually catch around 100 triggerfish with maybe 2 or 3 keepers on a good day! The red snapper are big this year and it should be a good season.

Fished 3 times during past 10 days. Odds are pretty good on over slot reds for next few weeks. There's been plenty of slot sized reds for the taking. Also, the speckled trout bite has been good and should continue through most of next month. This time last year, the big uglies/black drum were chewing and giving everyone aboard a run for their money! Speckled trout, blue fish, and Spanish mackerel are beginning to move in... another fun fish on light tackle

Spring is king, but beach season is here as the gobbles wind down and crawfish disappear.
It’s now time to turn on your Jimmy Buffet and Kenny Chesney playlist and comes sit on the world’s most beautiful beaches!
Top water trout has really proven to be the best way to catch big keeper trout with this spring being especially good.
Schooling reds in the shallows have been regular visitors by my boat but with ultra clear water they are turning their nose up at lots of baits. Over slot (over 27”) fish have been very available cruising the flats so...

We have lots to look forward too and it seems like this will be a summer to remember. So go grab a boat drink and a slice of key lime pie and come catch a few on the Emerald Coast.

The redfish bite has been on! Was using artificial baits until today, they started hitting live menhaden. The wind has been out of the east, it came around west/ northwest last night but it didn't seem to bother the bite. Here is a couple pictures from the last couple days.
