Offshore trolling much improved | www.gulfbreezenews.com | Gulf Breeze News

Offshore trolling much improved | www.gulfbreezenews.com | Gulf Breeze News: "The currents have finally changed form the northwest and turned up speed from a more southeasterly direction. This means nothing but cleaner water and better fishing for anglers along the Florida panhandle. The waters of the Gulf of Mexico from the shoreline to forty miles offshore are as pretty right now as you will ever see it. Not only do anglers love the pretty water, but fish of all species do as well.

During the past few weeks the blue water has been nearly 180 miles south of the Pensacola pass. This current change has and will continue to move the blue water in a northerly direction and this should make the offshore trolling for marlin, dolphin, tuna and wahoo much better in weeks to come. There have been several nice wahoo reported caught around the edges and 100 fathom curve along the nipple. Capt. Ronnie Hogue on the 'Hog Wild' brought in a 100 pound swordfish while fishing at night around the spur."
