Here's a good place to start...get familiar w/this site and read FORECASTS THOROUGHLY...then find and study all the CHARTS you can of the area you plan to fish...visit local tackle shops and don't be afraid to ask...if you can, fish w/a friend who knows the area and techniques before taking your own boat out...always helpful...tide forecasts as well...yer wise to stay inshore for a while...let someone know the general area you are fishing before you go and make sure your Airslot is FLORIDA LEGAL...take a digital camera and post up some pics of your trips, so we can see 'em

I am super new to saltwater fishing, went deep sea fishing on a charter a few weeks ago and I was instantly in love. I enjoyed it a lot more than bass fishing which I do 2-3 times a week! I really need some ideas of where/what I should look for in a fishing spot. What kind of fish are the best to eat from the bay? I will visit that tackle shop as soon as I can for some advice on setups. We just grilled up some scamp and trigger fish I caught from the gulf last week and they were amazing. I also want to find a chart or list of types of fish around there and legal limits for keepers. Picture of my boat!

if you are not staying at the beach, i would try to avoid the state park ramp. it is very convienent tothe pass, but cost about $12 every time you use it. i'm guessing you are coming down from ft rucker and the beach is closer than town, but there are no good public ramps at the beach. you can cross the bridge and there is a ramp of the east side with good parking and easy launch. further in town there is the ramp at the st andrews marina, and a good one at the downtown(panama city) marina. either one of those is going to put you about 3 miles from the pass. right now with all the fish closures in the gulf, about all that is going on is trolling for kings. triggers and bee liners are available, but you need gps & bottom machine to get on the structure. the next big bay thing is the fall run of pompano,flounder, & reds starting about mid sept until mid nov.
i would suggest a fl sportsman chart for this area, gives you a nice overview of the bay and has some pretty good info on bay spots pd |
