About Your Trip

Head out for a trip to remember as you venture off the coast of Pensacola with Captain Jacob! On this 6-hour fishing trip you'll be aboard a speedy 24' Robalo center console that can do some intense trolling or getting you to a bottom fishing spot in a hurry.

Trolling the open waters can produce hard fighting species like Amberjacks, Kingfish, Wahoo, Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, and more. Trolling trips are great because the boat and the knowledge of your captain take care of half the work for you. You get to sit back, relax, enjoy the sweet sea breeze, and rest your arms while you wait for the reel to start screaming and your work to begin.

Bottom fishing will attract a completely different set of fish. You can expect delicious and hard-fighting reef species here; impressive Gag Grouper, amazing Trigger Fish and the ever popular Red Snapper are just a few of the species encountered by anglers reeling in fish from the ocean bottom in Pensacola.

Captain Jacob fishes aboard a 24’ Robalo R242 center console with a capacity for six people. Powered by twin Yamaha engines for a combined 300 HP, this vessel is safe and steady on its way offshore. This luxurious vessel is complete with GPS, Fishfinder, a Live Bait Well, a Multimedia System, Outriggers, an Ice Box to store your catches and an on board bathroom. Captain Jacob will even clean your fish for no extra cost!

Captain Jacob will provide all rods, reels, and tackle. All you need is sunglasses, sunscreen, water, and weather-appropriate clothing. These family-friendly trips can host up to 6 people, so make sure you bring some good company!

Jacob and Ryan where great to us on the boat. Really helped use catch everything we could. They went above and beyond to change up bait and move to better spots so we could catch fish. Would definitely do it again

We booked a 6 hr deep sea charter for my son and his friend the Friday before the Blue Angels air show. I can't compliment Matt and Jacob enough because everything was awesome! Not only did they catch some fish, but the boys said everything about the trip was very fun. Jacob cleaned and packaged the fish on the way back so kept it on ice to take home. One thing that is always important to me when dealing with any business is communication. From the very beginning, Jacob and Matt were in constant communication with me and was extremely accommodating and easy to work with. We will definitely book another trip with them next year. Highly recommend you do the same!

My college aged son and his two friends had a fantastic trip with Jacob and his mate Alex. Despite the poor weather conditions, we caught enough to feed eight adults grilled fish tacos that same night. It was a great bonding experience!
