You probably can call hot spots bait and tackle or the marina at pensacola beach and find a walk-on boat where there are enough folks to make a trip, probably going to be a saturday, a 6 to 8 hour will run you $120 to $150 per person. Going to edge is probably an 8 hour trip since it takes around hour and half to reach from dock. You will catch aj's, scamp, mingo, some grouper, kings, and the plentiful throw back trophy red snappers. Pretty cheap for a day's fishing and they do all the work.

That's not bad, I need to drag my boat over there sometime. Lot of wahoo in the fall? I bought my boat from a guy in pcola and have lots of number for the edge and other spots over there he left in the GPS. How deep does it drop off?

MrFish · 11-01-2011, 09:47 AM

It goes from about 180 to 300.

What people refer to as the "Edge" between Pensacola and Destin is where what's called ""DeSoto Canyon"" starts to drop off. Like others have mentioned it starts around I wanna say 150+ ft. about 20-25 miles from the Destin or Pensacola Pass. Then it goes roughly from 200-300+ ft starting at around 25-30 miles out. From 300-600+ ft 35-40 miles out. Then, from 600-1000+ ft about 40-60 miles out. Once your in 600-1000ft of water you pretty much have passed the continental self or "edge."
