Black Sea Bass Fishing in the Pensacola, Florida Area
In the Florida Panhandle between Destin and Pensacola, anglers have access to very deep water. Within 25 to 35 miles from shore, anglers can be fishing from 100 to 600 feet of water or even deeper in some spots. While the 100 Fanthom line may be closest to Destin in this region, you can get out to some very deep water in 25 to 35 miles from Pensacola. There are plenty of offshore reefs and wrecks on the way out to the 100 Fanthom line that will hold plenty of sea bass. Some anglers target them, while others usually enjoy catching them while out targeting grouper and snapper.
