Carrabelle - Saltwater Fishing Report
Oh the joy of Offshore Fishing in the Fall off St. George Island. Just pick your favorite target species, as they are here for the catching in the Fall months. If you enjoy getting a pull on your line and eating fresh fish, this is the time for a spectacular fishing adventure.
Giant Gag Groupers are in a pre-spawn pattern and will be hungry on the nearshore reefs. Chunky Red Snappers will be biting until the season closes for us recreationals the end of October. Thirty pound class Kingfish will be around in huge numbers, until they move south for warmer water and plentiful bait sources. Offshore wrecks will hold monster Amberjacks that will test your endurance. Until the water cools, Cobia will hang on the numerous old shrimp boat wrecks.
So, plan your fishing trip now and enjoy a really fun day on the gorgeous Gulf of Mexico. The friendly folks, the wonderful weather and the fabulous fishing are all yours on the unforgettable coast of the Florida Panhandle.
Until next tide, tight lines and solid hookups,
