I'm working on a late fall camping / fishing trip to the redneck Riviera ... I've never fished those bay waters like Apalachicola Bay or Big Lagoon. We'd like to boat camp and fish the inland side mostly ..(Maybe some ocean side if the conditions allow). Looking for redfish and trout...
Anyway it's a perfect excuse for a boat project.... Anyone here experienced with those waters ? What type of boat would you think is a minimum ? I've never boated in that type of bigger water and I'm worried that a 15 ft tin might be totally overmatched ? I also know it can get really shallow.... So I don't want to go too large either....
Any other insights into places to camp or conditions would be much appreciated... St George island... Fort Pickens..... Navarre....Choctawhatchee Bay....St Joseph Bay....
