Nighttime Bowfishing Thrills in Panama City Beach: 4-Hour Adventure
One for the books today! I took Logan and their crew out for a nighttime bowfishing adventure in Panama City Beach, FL.

We used a mix of techniques - bottom fishing, sight casting, and even some live bait fishing to keep things interesting. The partly cloudy sky actually worked in our favor, providing just enough cover to keep the fish active without completely obscuring our visibility. While we didn't land any trophies on this run, every minute on the water was worth it. The crew got to experience the thrill of bowfishing under the stars, and we had a great time trying different spots and techniques.

Prime Nights for Targeting Rays and Shallow-Water Species
The shallow waters of Panama City Beach have been active after sunset, making it a great time to book a bowfishing trip. Stingrays continue to be the top target, especially around the grassy flats and sandy shorelines. Visibility has been solid on clear nights, giving anglers a great chance to spot rays gliding through the shallows. Along with stingrays, anglers are seeing an increase in sheepshead, mullet, and the occasional flounder. Warmer evening temps are drawing in more movement, so timing your trip around dusk has been productive. If you're planning to get out on the water, now's a solid window—especially with calm wind conditions expected to continue this week.
