Hi, I'm Mike; I'm a Gulf Real Estate Realtor® in Panama City, Florida who loves fishing again. In Florida, most people are never more than about a half hour from enjoying the big water, bays, or lakes. I will be showing beautiful fishing spots, & with permission, some beautiful properties being offered - they could be YOURS! (If the video is old - they might be sold). I loved fishing as a kid. I loved introducing my kids to fishing. Until one day I pigged out on some sword fish and got really, sick (might have been the migraine). If you ever had one of those experiences with some certain variety of adult beverages - you know. I couldn't look at fish for a couple decades (I got over it; but it's the reason I'm extra picky about 'what's a keeper'). When my older brother retired, one way for us to reconnect was to go fishing together; and it brought me back. So this channel is me, learning to fish again, accepting how much I have to learn and trying to get it right for the first time.
I have a 2007 Shallow Sport BAHIA 18 basically the same boat as the SPORT 18 but the Sport is prettier and the Bahia lighter. I have a 90 Hp Evinrude, with 2 big fellas and gear it tops out at 31 mph w/ 3 blade prop, no extra weight from a K-Top or T-Top and using nothing but Ethanol-Free Fuel, my preference. Not great if the chop gets above 2' but I still love this boat and at my age I've had a few boats and his boat is great inshore. "Tight Lines and Full Limits To Ya"
Sandfleas are great for pompanos. Preferably fresh. Looks like you hit the motherload and nice sizes too. We've all had those days where either nothing is biting, everything is biting and your equipment isn't working right. I carry 4 go pro batteries at all time and still run into low battery issues.
The storm mad it hard all through out the panhandle and big bend. Went to Mexico Beach for a planned Pompano video but ended up having to change things up and do a Sail Cat video out of St. George because of the muddy waters, wave action etc
Any other suggestions on structure fishing for the table in PCB? I go down for Spaniards at the end of March, but i would love to try some other spots for dinner if they arent biting! Great video!
The bridge I'm fishing under is a small park on the beach end of 192, can't cast net there but there's another park across 192. There's probably better spots, but we didn't do a lot of exploring. That bridge is loaded with snags.
Fish Bites and Fish Gum is the best way to deal with Pin Fish and still hook up on snapper/sheep head/reds and multiple other fish around the pan handle without loosing bait on nearly every drop.
There's parking on both ends of the bridge, but it's a little tough to spot - you can only get to either one from the eastbound lane - it can be a little bit of a hassle cause it might take a couple passes the first time.
@@thefloridareelestatechanne3972 True. I'm probably gonna head down there Tuesday and get a lot of fishing in. I've been fishing there for almost 40 years and still haven't gotten into Mangroves like I want. Just seem to catch one here and there. It just breaks my heart to buy live shrimp and end up feeding pinfish. I live on the Texas Gulf Coast and we don't have those pesky little bastards to deal with! Also stay in FWB a couple of times a year and I stay at a place that has a small dock with green lights that almost guarantees a limit of Speckled Trout every night. Still have to have at least 2 dozen live shimp to limit out. I can drop directly in the middle of a dozen trout and a pinfish will zoom in from 6 feet away and snatch it!
I had such a great time at the boat show. We're "boat shopping", too, but we're much more likely to look for something gently used. We want to get familiar with models/features before we get really serious.
I can't really say, I've got a couple solid guesses what it wasn't - It wasn't something I saw! :-)) Top candidates for me are a monster redfish or some kind of shark; but there are other things that hit and run like that...
Hey, I picked something up a few years ago: "Choffer" is specific to only around apalachicola to Philips inlet - and it's fading out as a name because you can't say "Choffer" to someone from Destin or Tampa and have them know what you mean. It's fading locally, too.
We grilled the smaller one, wrapped in foil, kinda steaming in butter and seasonings. (I might do a catch and cook at some point, but I'll have to learn how to cook...)
@@thefloridareelestatechanne3972 lol just take it over to Kathi's that would be more than entertaining for a youtube video. Aaaaaand try and keep it landscape not portrait ;)
