About Hathaway Span #7 -Stage 1 West Reef

Hathaway Span #7 – Stage 1 West Reef is an artificial reef in federal Gulf waters off Panama City, Florida, at 29.9857, -85.9503. As its name indicates, the site belongs to the Hathaway Span series of deployments and forms part of the Stage 1 West Reef grouping. Because the reef is a discrete piece of placed structure on open Gulf bottom, precise positioning on the listed coordinates matters more here than at broad natural hard-bottom areas. Depth and target species are not yet on file for this site, so anglers should confirm conditions on the water with their own electronics.
