Anybody been doin any bay fishin'

[Capt. William]

The bay fishing in choctawhachee bay from what I am told has been decent with trout, reds, and flounder. The bayous and creek mouths have been producing as well as the deeper water structure for mangrove snappers, blue fish, ladyfish and so on. I even caught a 6 lbs. Triple Tail a little earlier in the summer, I have heard of a few more triple tail sightings recently in the mack bayou and the four mile point area.

good luck to all and wish of bent poles and singing lines

As for the flounder i have caught a couple in the mack bayou area and there should be some around the Jetties and Noriego point in Destin. I have also gotten reports of flounders around 331 bridge.

As for Port St. Joe Bay, The reds are in a few big schools in deeper sand holes during low tide(best time to fish them) and in the grass on high tide where a topwater plug will produce. Trout are biting but are also in the deeper water around structure and deep grass/sand holes. The flounder are in the same areas as the trout and redfish but I have also found them in deeper water around the Marina (oil docks).

Good luck to all

As I am typing 2 friends of mine are catching big 4#-5# blue fish and good sized spanished mackereal in the Bay around sandestin. They have also boated 2 trout one of which about 3#. Last night they caught a big bull red right near the destin bridge.

St. Joseph Bay Report

Saw a manatee a few days ago near the marina in town. Have been catching bull reds(and legal reds), black drum, flounder, trout, spanish mackereal, 8#-25# king mackereal(on top waters very exciting), bull sharks, and the red row mullet are running up and down the seawall through a gauntlet of nets, sharks, and kings. All these species are being caught off the seawall at the marina in Port St. Joe. The deepest part of the seawall is about 25' deep depending on the tides but it is about 30' in middle of channel. You can catch many more fish but of the same species from a boat if you know where to go.
