Fished it Saturday on outgoing tide with very little luck. Saw a school of redfish but no takers. Try the incoming that may be he ticket. Half Hitch says they have reports of lots of redfish being caught up there now.

Red Tide has arrived at Panama City waters. Today, Wed Sept 30, beaches are accumulating tons of dead, rotting fish coming ashore. Most all species seem to be washing ashore. Divers report dead fish cover the bottom.

I would not head that direction to catch some fish this weekend. Port Saint Joe may not have been affected........ yet.
