Ft Pickens. My family has a condo there so I fish it very often. Alternating with and without a boat. On the bank go as far down ft picked with your vehicle then walk to the end get close to the jetties. Bull reds and a few mangros were caught there last week. The specks have been on grass beds depending on where you are staying depends on if you'll be able to get on them with ease. I tend to stay away from the pier just because I'm
Not used to that kind of pier fishing. You need dip nets or a claw to get your catch up to you. I just don't like doing that. The sand bars have been close so you can walk out to the first one and with live pinfish get into deep enough water to catch Spanish and kings. The great thing about Pcola is that you never know what will be on the end of your line.
The pass has been producing great shark bites all day but ft Pickens is a public beach I would recommend not fishing for sharks till afternoon when people have left.
gotcha plugs work great for Spanish mackerel.
