Brandon Barton with Emerald Waters Kayak Charters, who dives into late spring fishing in the Pensacola area. He shares how he’s targeting snapper from a kayak using freelined bonita chunks, and why fresh bait, light tackle, and chunking strategy make all the difference. Brandon also breaks down inshore action on the grass flats, including explosive topwater strikes from trout and redfish. He highlights wake baits as an effective and beginner-friendly option in rougher conditions—and shares his go-to picks and techniques.
Capt. Harris Scruggs with Triple B Fishing walks us through what it really takes to prepare for a successful offshore trip. From fuel, ice, and water planning to float plans, emergency gear, backup tools, and weather analysis, Capt. Harris shares hard-earned knowledge from years of running long-range charters. This is a deep dive into what separates a smooth day offshore from a costly mistake.
