Trading Bass for Redfish! Inshore Florida Kayak Fishing

I’m trading freshwater bass fishing for a little saltwater adventure on the Florida Gulf Coast! I’ve caught redfish before, but there’s one thing I’ve never done… catch a redfish on TOPWATER!

This time, we’re heading out near Panama City, Florida, to explore the shallow flats and chase redfish from a kayak. The mission is simple: get a redfish to absolutely CRUSH a topwater lure!

As a bass angler, topwater fishing has always been one of my favorite ways to catch fish. But taking those techniques into saltwater and targeting hard-fighting redfish brings a whole new level of excitement!

We cover some beautiful Florida inshore water, work topwater baits, and get into some awesome redfish action. And yes, we accomplish the mission!

Whether you’re a freshwater bass angler looking to try something different or a seasoned saltwater fisherman, this is one kayak fishing adventure you won’t want to miss!

Special thanks to Colby for a great trip!
