It was a beautiful June morning when Alex and their crew joined us at Milton, FL for a 4 Hour Trip – Inshore (Day) with Addicted to Scales & Tail Charters. The weather was partly cloudy with some afternoon rain, but we were determined to make the most of it and get them on some quality inshore fish. The waters around Garcon Point are known for their diverse population of Spotted Weakfish, Redfish, and even the occasional Atlantic Sharpnose Shark, especially during the summer months.

We started the day off with some jigging and fly fishing, targeting the deeper channels and structure where the Weakfish and Redfish like to hang out. It didn't take long before one of the rods started screaming—Alex had hooked into a nice Spotted Weakfish that put up an impressive fight. After getting that fish in the boat, the action stayed steady, and we started picking up a few more Weakfish, as well as some nice Redfish. The fly rods got in on the action too, with a few Reds smashing the flies we were working.

As the afternoon rolled in, the weather shifted a bit, and we decided to switch over to some heavier tackle to target the larger predators. And boy, were we glad we did! One of the anglers in the group got absolutely spooled when a big Atlantic Sharpnose Shark hammered their bait. After a lengthy battle, we were able to leader the fish, snap a few pics, and send it on its way. The rain held off just long enough for us to enjoy the excitement before we called it a day.

Pensacola Bay Inshore Slam: 4-Hour Fishing Thrill with Addicted to Scales & Tail

Tonight's Pensacola Fishing Charters | Night Fishing For Trophy Redfish and More trip was a blast. As the sun started to set, I met up with David Lord at 2306 N 14th Ave, ready to head out on the water for some exciting night fishing action. February is a prime time for targeting Redfish and Speckled Trout around Pensacola Bay, and the evening conditions couldn't have been better - partly cloudy with just a light breeze.

We wasted no time getting the lines in the water once we reached our spot. David was eager to try his hand at some Pensacola night fishing, and it didn't take long before his rod bent over as he hooked into a feisty Redfish. The fish put up a great fight, carving circles around the boat as David kept steady pressure on the line. After a few tense minutes, he finally worked the Redfish alongside the boat and we were able to get it in the boat. Not a bad start to the night!

As we continued working our way around the illuminated docks and bridges, the bite remained consistent. We had a few more solid hook-ups, including a couple more Redfish and even a surprise Speckled Trout that put on an incredible aerial display. The action was steady, and David was grinning ear-to-ear the entire time, loving the thrill of the nighttime bite. Between the bites, we took some time to admire the reflections of the lights on the water and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere.

Pensacola Night Fishing Adventure: Reeling in Trophy Reds

Looks like we had another great group of anglers join us for a 4-Hour Inshore Fishing Private Trip in the waters around Pensacola, Florida today. December is a fantastic time to be out on the water here, with the Redfish (also known as Red Drum) really feeding up before the winter. The weather couldn't have been better - just a bit of cloud cover keeping things comfortable as we headed out.
As soon as we got the lines in the water, the fish started firing up. We were using a combination of fishing techniques, working bait and lures to cover different depths and structure. It didn't take long before one of the guys had a solid hookup - he was into a nice Redfish that put up a great fight. The fish made some strong runs, but he kept his cool and landed it smoothly. A little while later, one of the other anglers hooked into a nice Speckled Trout that had us all cheering. We managed to boat a few more Redfish and Trout throughout the trip, keeping the rods bent and the energy high.
Between the catch, the great weather, and the awesome company, this was just one of those perfect days on the water. Pensacola Bay never disappoints, and we had a blast exploring the area, finding the fish, and helping everyone get in on the action.

What a day out on the water! I had the pleasure of taking Chris Roland and a couple of his buddies on a 4 Hour Trip – Inshore (Day) with Addicted to Scales & Tail Charters, and it was a great time from start to finish. July is a fantastic time for inshore fishing around here, when the Redfish (Red Drum) start moving in closer to shore, making for some exciting action.

We met up at the usual spot and got the group rigged up and ready to go. The weather was cooperating too, with partly cloudy skies that kept things comfortable all day. As we headed out, the water looked great—clear and calm, perfect for spotting fish and keeping the boat running smoothly. It wasn't long before the rods started bending, and the crew was hooked up. The Redfish were in a feeding mood, and we landed some nice ones that put up great fights. Seeing those big, powerful fish come thrashing to the surface is always a thrill.

Between the steady bites and beautiful scenery, it was just a fantastic day on the water. We worked different spots and techniques, trying to stay on the fish, and the group was into it the whole time. Everyone was laughing and swapping stories, and I could tell they were having a blast. That's what these trips are all about—getting out on the water, catching some fish, and making memories with good company.
