Pensacola Inshore Sheepshead & Red Fishing Drag Screaming Fun

Spring Break is only weeks away. What's great about fishing in March is you can catch a variety of fish like sheepshead, redfish, red snapper, black drum and grouper.

We fish Pensacola Pass for a variety of fish listed above, but if you like flats fishing it is also exceptional this time of year for slot reds and fun light tackle trout.

The key to successfully fishing both areas is to closely watch the tides. Some folks like the outgoing tide better than the incoming, but I have found that as long as the water's moving, the bite is great.

Pensacola Beach is known for being a great place to spend Spring Break especially for families because of the variety of water activities, and fishing is one of the number one draws to this area.

If you are new to the area and want to learn how to fish our waters, or if you have a boat here while on vacation, then book one of my Saltwater Academy Charters, Pensacola's Finest Instructional Fishing Charter;
