Red Snapper

Red Snapper, Kings & Mahi Are Keeping Rods Bent

Summer fishing in Pensacola is heating up fast, and right now is a prime window for anglers heading offshore or staying closer to the bay. Red Snapper season is in full swing, and boats are coming back with limits daily. These fish are holding steady around reefs and wrecks in the 80–120 ft range, and live bait is outperforming frozen. Be ready for bonus hookups—big triggerfish and vermillion snapper are mixing in too.

Offshore action beyond the edge has been steady with King Mackerel, Mahi Mahi, and even a few Wahoo showing up in the bluewater. Trolling ballyhoo and dusters has been producing great results, especially on days with cleaner water and solid temperature breaks. Nearshore, Spanish Mackerel and Bonito are still hanging around the bait pods, and inshore trips are seeing good numbers of speckled trout and redfish early in the mornings.

Whether you're dropping baits on the reef or chasing pelagics offshore, now’s a great time to book a Pensacola fishing trip and get in on the Gulf action.
