Local Tips & Conditions

Pensacola's inshore waters feature a mix of flats, channels, and structure that hold redfish and speckled trout throughout the year. Night fishing success often depends on water movement and temperature, with incoming tides around illuminated areas producing the best action. In fall months, cooling water temperatures trigger increased feeding activity, making evening trips particularly productive. Weather conditions like cloud cover can actually enhance night fishing as fish become less spooky in reduced light. Captain Jamie monitors these factors daily to position clients in prime locations based on current conditions.

Plan Your Fishing Charter Day

For your night fishing trip with Addicted to Scales & Tail Charters, plan to meet at the designated launch point around 8:00 p.m. Wear comfortable clothing appropriate for evening temperatures, which can be cooler on the water. While all fishing gear is provided, you may want to bring a light jacket, camera, drinks, and snacks. The vessel is equipped for comfortable night navigation with proper lighting and safety equipment. Captain Jamie prioritizes both productive fishing and passenger comfort throughout the excursion, making these trips suitable for anglers of various experience levels who want to experience Pensacola's nighttime fishing action.
