Navarre Beach Fishing
 

Whats up guys, I'm going to Navarre Beach the middle of next month. For those who doesn't know where it is, its a tad bit closer to us than destin. Does anyone know some good public fishing spots in or around there? I don't want anything spectacular, even just some small pompano or bluefish is all I'm looking for. Also some good baits for bluefish? Last year, in Panama I used sabiki rigs (spelling??) and had a blast catch many species of small fish. Thanks for any info fellas. I plan on fishing the bay side and gulf side

man i like to use gulp shrimp in that area for flounder have gone the past three summers and done very well on gulps catching mostly flounder and pompano. i fished in the surf in front of my condo wherever u see deep pockets and not alota kids playin in the water

sweet! I never would of thought to bring some gulp! I'm guessing the white color would be best? I didn't think you'd catch pompano on the gulp. I never see any big enough to eat them

yeah man u wont catch a whole bunch on gulps but that sbiki rig u talked about would prob. work better for pompano but a white /glow gulp shrimp worked slow in the surf will produce flounder even if u don't see any trust me they are there they hide really well in that clear water and sand

check out profile pic its some flounder i caught out there last summer

Dig yourself some sand fleas on the beach and use that for bait......its a no brainer........under a cork tho, or they'll dig back into the sand.......

dammit boy! didn't think they'd be that nice. I also thought they'd be a lot lighter in color. If i can catch that I'd be happy. I think i'll tie on the sabiki rig and tie my gulp on the bottom to use it as a weight to cast out the sabiki rig. Think that sounds like a plan.. what you say

I looked for sand fleas last time! I don't even know what i'm looking for. lol How big are they? What kind of hook to use too

i think it'll work good luck and post pics if u catch

will do my friend.. I'm going there May 13 through the weekend. And theres very few hotel where we are staying at. On one side of the hotel is just a huge vacant area of beach so hopefully there won't be many kids playing in the surf lol

man id drive over to ft walton and fish that pier...they always catchin fish off of that thing...you can rent a heavy duty rod and big lowering net for about ten bucks...and the lil guy in the shop will tell you wat baits to try and buy cause he knows wats working...i know last summer it produced really well...

really!?

What kind of fish were they catching?

for pomps use sand fleas or i believe there are gulp sand flea too, on small circle hooks.....the pomps usually hang out in the troughs in the surf......for bluefish...toss a gotcha plug.....gotcha's are bluefish candy...

what does a gotcha plug look like? Is that the funny looking chrome baits? They kinda look like some kind of chug bug

Last time I was their (about 8 yrs ago) there was a pier at Navarre. I remember lots of folks free diving around there and spear fishing and people surf fishing right there.

Went with B-Stealth. Shoot him a PM. He'll know.

Anyway, we were farther out than we should have been floating on some rafts and drinking, and one of the divers tells us as we get back to shore that a shark was swimming around under us most of the time! That always freeks me out when I think about that.

Theres your answer Jeremy...............Toe Baits!!!:eek:

I would have sworn that this thread woulda had more posts......help the boy out folks!!!
