Fishing Pensacola Area
It's Bayou Texar. Pronounced te har and it's so polluted you are cautioned against swimming, water skiing, or eating the fish.

Re: Fishing Pensacola Area

The official line is "Stormwater Runoff." My personal thought, with no scientific background at all, is out dated septic tanks and big beautiful lawns that run down to the water. The fertilizers and herbicides and all that are used on the lawns must go somewhere.
Good place to fish and all is Santa Rosa Sound. Launch at Shoreline Park in Gulf Breeze and fish the Bob Sikes Bridge, the docks, and Pensacola Pass. Flounder, reds and trout around the Bridge and docks. BIG reds and mackerel in the Pass. I don't go off shore so I don't know.
Red tide was here a couple of weeks ago but is supposed to be gone now.
