Hey guys-can anyone give me information about fishing on the beach-we will be there June 23-June 30 and are staying in Seacrest beach. Where is the best place to fish there? Do youfish from the beach or go elsewhere. I am trying to satisfy my husband and two boys-9 and 11-while my daughter and I spa-heheheh-I'll take the spa anyday!! heheheh Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!!!:clap_1:
 
The Seacrest area has been very good for surf fishing lately. There are some ancient cypress stumps in the gulf that were exposed during the last hurricanes. Fish tend to congregate around the stumps.

The only issue that your anglers may encounter is the timing of the arrival of "June grass", which can make for frustrating fishing because it fouls the line. If that's the case, we'll come up with some other ideas for them. We have lots of water around here.

best regards,
 
There was a couple fishing east of Grayton Beach yesterday and caught a huge pompano!!:clap_1: Hubby also found/caught lots of sand fleas.
 
Go Franny, where there's fleas, there's Pomps...Not to hijack the thread but Cobia are being caught in shallows and around piers from Destin to Pensacola...Anybody ACTUALLY seen or caught around here the last few days?...Red

If the June Grass pushes in while you are here, rent a kayak for funn, and fish at a local seafood market. Or, if your heart is set on fishing, there is always the Bay which provides for a good source of Redfish, Trout, SheepsHead, etc.
