Overall Outlook - Fish activity is trending high at the start of the week (Sept 28 – Oct 1) according to the solunar & fishing-forecast models. - Later in the week (Oct 2–4), activity is expected to dip to “average” or “below average.” - Water temperatures remain warm, in the low-to-mid 80s °F. Hot Spots & What’s Biting - Offshore: Expect solid action on vermillion snapper, amberjack, and occasional gag grouper hustling around reefs, wrecks, and ledges. - Inshore & nearshore: Redfish, flounder, and slot redfish are being caught along sandbars and around the piers. - Pier / surf: The Pensacola Beach Gulf Pier reports seeing redfish, pompano, and even some sharks cruising near bait schools. Tides, Timing & Strategy - The best bite windows generally align with major solunar periods (early morning & evening). - For example, Sunday’s optimal fishing window is between ~1:17 PM and 5:17 PM. - Pay attention to tide changes. Fishing near transitions—especially the rising tide going into high—often yields results. - Use live bait (shrimp, small mullet) or cut bait around structure, reef edges, drop-offs, and sandbar edges. #pensacola #fishing #fishingreport #inshorefishing Tips & Warnings - Wind and swell remain light early in the week, which helps for calmer conditions offshore. - Later in the week, conditions may worsen and affect clarity and bait movement. - Always double-check local weather, marine forecasts, and permit or bag limits before heading out.

Redfish are one of the most exciting fish to target along the Gulf Coast! Here are a few quick tips to help you hook up: - Look for structure – docks, grass lines, and oyster beds are prime spots. - Use the right bait – live shrimp, mullet, or soft plastics are top choices. - Fish the tides – moving water brings the bite alive, especially on incoming tides. - Stealth matters – redfish spook easily in shallow water, so approach quietly. Get out there, stay patient, and you’ll be hooked up in no time! #Redfish #FishingTips #FloridaFishing #NavarreFishing #PensacolaFishing #InshoreFishing #Showintail #RedfishSeason #SaltwaterFishing #FishingLife
