Whats up my fellow Panhandle Anglers! May is here and the fishing will really start to heat up! This is one of my favorite months of the year to fish! Almost everything starts to bite good! Inshore fishing the trout will start showing up and the spanish mackerel will usually be biting good! Trout fishing will fire off when the croaker show up. Live croaker or shrimp on popping corks will be a killer set up! Spanish mackerel will be found using spoons or glass minnows along the coastline or in the pass! Amberjacks will be hitting most of the bigger wrecks and bigger bridge rubble spots. They will be caught on live baits such as ruby reds and hardtails but they must be released to fight again as NOAA decided to keep them closed to harvest. King mackerel will be cruising off the beaches and over top of wrecks so be sure to have a live bait out the back at all times. If bait is hard to find, YoZuris work good and so do planer boards with spoons. The Cobia run will still be cranking and some of them will make their homes on the nearshore wrecks! I can not express how important it is to take advantage of the pretty weather and beautiful views that come along with the month of May! Our water ways will be absolutely stunning and the beaches provide tons of hours of fun! Lets get out there and catch some fish!!
