Born and raised in Panacea, Florida, Captain Tanner brings a lifetime of local fishing experience to every charter. Coming from a family deeply rooted in the area’s commercial fishing scene, he grew up learning the rhythms of these waters and transitioned into guiding full-time several years ago. He’s also served as a SeaTow captain, reinforcing his commitment to safety and professionalism on the water.
Captain Tanner runs a 25’ Carolina Skiff powered by a 150HP Yamaha, equipped with modern navigation, safety features, a live bait tank, and an ice box. The boat comfortably accommodates up to six guests and is perfectly suited for inshore flats fishing, shark trips, bowfishing, and gigging.
Depending on the season, you might target Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Black Drum, Sheepshead, Tarpon, or Cobia.
