  • We traveled in our boat from Panama City Beach to Apalachicola down the intracoastal waterway for a weekend getaway to Florida's Forgotten Coast. In this video we show you how we got there, where we stayed and where we ate. We caught redfish on the OYSTER BARS that make this area famous and took a quick trip over to St. George Island.
    This is a beautiful area of the Florida Panhandle and we highly recommend visiting by boat or vehicle to explore the town of Apalachicola and surrounding areas. The food, drinks and scenery are spectacular!

    The channel is evolving nicely. I mainly came here for the 2400 TRS content but the destination footage is a great addition.

      Thank you for the feedback! We’re getting new ideas as we head into the fall and winter season. We want to stay mostly within the 850 footprint but we will also be traveling outside of this creating new content. We appreciate you following us🙏

    Next time you make that run stop in to Port St Joe where the Florida State Constitution was written . It served as the state capitol until that was moved to Tallahassee . There is a restaurant at the marina and restaurants within the same distance that you covered in Apalachicola .

      We plan on making that trip again in late August / September. We will be sure to check that out - thanks for the suggestion!

    I truly enjoyed this video. We live in GB and have only traveled as far east as PCB by boat. I want to do a trip from here to Tarpon Springs. If you need a buddy boat we are ready. Swim suit calendar is a perfect idea.

    Nice trip I'm sure the night life on Fri. would be better but you are fortunate to travel during the week. No scalloping? Good video keep'em coming.

    • @thereel850
      @thereel850  Před 11 měsíci

      Wasn’t a lot of people there over the weekend but that was fine with us! Next weekend we are scalloping in Port St Joe- stay tuned!

    Hello from Canada. I’m glad I stumbled onto your video. The last time I was in Carrabelle was 2020. I love the Apalachicola tour I definitely miss the oysters at up the Creek. Thanks for the memories. I’ll get back there soon

      I'm with you on dog friendly Florida Beach locations. The fewer the regulations, the better. Love St. George Island. A very friendly place. Love the people. Was there last year. Great family vacation. Anna Maria was a beautiful place. But way too many regulations and forbidden beach activities.😢

    • @thereel850

      Yes there sure is - Scipio Creek Marina. Located a few hundred yards down from the hotel.

    Very cool video. We just watched this. My wife and I are gonna make this trip this coming weekend from PCB. Any further advice ? Thank you in advance.

    • @thereel850
      @thereel850  Před dnem

      Thanks for watching! We’re planning on doing it again in a few weeks too! My advice would be to watch for deadfall’s in the ICW - seems like when we made the trip there were a few just under the surface; also- only fuel is at Sippio Creek Marina; other fuel option is Mexico Beach Marina. If you’re running in St Vincent sound, be sure to use your chart - lots of oyster bars. Hope y’all have a great trip and appreciate you reaching out!

    How many miles is that, I live in Lynn Haven might have to do that one weekend.

    • @thereel850
      @thereel850  Před 10 měsíci

      It was ~70-75 miles from Crooked Creek according to navionics. Took about 2 1/2 hours

  • @caseyfreeman3994
    @caseyfreeman3994 Před 2 měsíci

    So I normally go fishing off the old bridge at St. George Island. What fish will be running through there June, July and August?

    • @thereel850
      @thereel850  Před 2 měsíci +1

      I'm no expert in that area of FL (or any area) but my guess would be the usual - redfish, maybe black drum, mangrove snapper.

  • @tdfsu1
    @tdfsu1 Před 6 měsíci +1

    Those random sticks you encountered are FAD’s put out to attract tripletail. Fish those, not the oyster bars, next time you’re over.

    • @thereel850
      @thereel850  Před 6 měsíci

      Thank you for explaining that! I saw some buoys out there that we tried for triple tail but wasn’t sure what those random stakes were. Much appreciated and thanks for watching👊 Happy New Year

    • @thereel850
      @thereel850  Před měsícem

      That’s a tough question depending on species. I’d say you couldn’t go wrong in April, May and June but fall (October) would be great as well.

    How’s the red tide been over there any yet this year?

    • @thereel850
      @thereel850  Před 2 měsíci

      Haven’t seen any in this area in several years now. If we get it, seems like it’s later in the summer months - Aug / September.

    • @thereel850
      @thereel850  Před 2 měsíci

      We haven’t had any red tide, if we do get it , it’s usually September/October.
