It's almost that time of year in Destin, Florida when the pelagic migration begins and the fish start arriving. But don't wait to get your fishing fix - there are plenty of other species to target in the bays and reefs near Destin. Inshore fishing is excellent right now and anglers should be prepared for an exciting time on the water. For anglers looking to hook Trout and Redfish, head to the shallow waters near shore or off piers or jetties. If you’re after Snapper and Amberjack, try heading a bit further out - around 20ft depths - where you can find them actively feeding on smaller baitfish.
