If you're looking for a truly epic shark-fishing adventure, come on down to Panama City Beach and get out there with Captain Billy! Because of their speed, strength, and size, sharks are definitely a step above regular inshore and nearshore species. On this trip, you'll be able to hook a couple different types, including Blacktips, Bullsharks, Hammerheads, Nurse Sharks, and even Tiger Sharks! You'll draw bites with cut bait, which sharks love. When a big one takes the hook, hold on—these fish can strip a reel in minutes, and they have incredible endurance as well.

When a big one takes the hook, hold on—these fish can strip a reel in minutes, and they have incredible endurance as well. At night, sharks are highly active and are in "hunting mode", making this an ideal time to catch them. Fishing on the ocean at night is also a unique experience—it's quiet, cool, and there's less traffic, plus, no need for sun protection! If you've never been on a night trip, let Captain Billy be your guide.

If you’re wanting to go out and rip some salt water fish lips Captain Billy is the man for the job. Me and my boys went out and with 5 minutes of our hooks being in the water we had fish in the boat.
