  • Summary

  • As of October 27, 2024, the Gulf of Mexico along Florida's coast is offering some fantastic fishing opportunities, especially with the fall season in full swing. Here’s what you can expect today:

    The weather is mild, with air temperatures hovering around 75 degrees, typical for this time of year. The skies are partly cloudy, and there's a gentle breeze out of the northeast. Today's high tide is at 10:35 AM, and the low tide is at 4:15 PM. These tidal changes are crucial for activating fish activity.

    Sunrise this morning was at 7:34 AM, and sunset will be at 6:53 PM, giving you ample daylight to get out on the water.

    Yesterday saw a lot of action, particularly for redfish, trout, and cobia. Inshore, redfish and trout were plentiful in the flats around Apalachicola, Dog Island near Carrabelle, and the flats of Eastpoint around Yents Bayou. Anglers reported catching several redfish in the 20-25 inch range and trout up to 18 inches. Offshore, cobia were active around channel markers and buoys, with some catches reported near the passes on either end of St. George Island.

    For targeting these species, live baits such as greenbacks, threadfins, and shrimp are particularly effective. For redfish and trout, using jigs or soft plastics in the flats can also yield good results. For cobia, trolling around structure with larger lures or bait can be productive.

    If you're looking to surf fish, focus on the deeper troughs between sandbars, particularly around the areas near Carrabelle and Apalachicola. These spots have been producing some great catches lately.

    Overall, the fall season is an excellent time to fish the Gulf Coast of Florida, with plenty of active fish and favorable conditions. Enjoy your trip
