Hey everyone, I plan on traveling around and fishing in new areas. Trying to see what's out there while I can. Let me know if you have any info/advice. A video of my first year fishing highlights, subscribe if you like. Thanks!

Holler if you ever make it up this way. I'm also a Floridian, but landed here back in 2008. Fishing the PNW is pretty fantastic, but in a completely different way. The tackle/techniques we use will be foreign to say the very least! Check out some of the videos posted here as well as my YouTube channel (Polyangler) to get a feel for what I'm saying.

Welcome to the forum, I am new here as well.
When is it best to kayak fish down there? I have been wanting to go to Corpus Christie TX and work my way to Pensicola FL in a 3 week period. I would be going any time from January to May.
Thank you

Hello fellow Floridian! As Polyangler said, fishing here is very different. I'm still in the learning phase, but it is really enjoyable.


James Henry:
Jan -> May: If you can get out to either a reef or a wreck in anything from 80' - 300' water you can catch basically anything from king mackerel and sailfish to grouper, snapper, etc.. Slack lined pilchards and pinfish off of circle hooks will catch you pretty much anything. There are a lot of toothy creatures, so you might want to have some spare 6" wire leaders handy if you get cut off a few times.
