About Your Trip

There’s nothing like spending quality time on the water with a rod in your hands, and there's no better place for it than Panama City Beach!

Head out with Captain Justin for a wonderful day on the water, chasing Kingfish, Spanish Mackerel, Mahi Mahi, Triggerfish, and more! Whether you’re fishing with family, friends, or coworkers, Captain Justin is adept at handling all skill levels and is able to customize your trip to your preferences.

On this trip, you'll fish the entire water column, chasing bites from topwater species such as Kingfish and Mahi as well as reef species like Triggerfish and Grouper. Using different techniques like this ensures that you'll have a successful day and come home with good photos, great memories, and a full cooler!

You'll be fishing from the deck of Captain Justin's 23' Sportsman 227 bay boat. This puppy comes equipped with a powerful 150-HP Yamaha outboard, plus a range of amenities to enhance your experience. This boat is perfect for a family fishing trip, with a T-Top for shade, Simrad electronics, and multiple live wells for bait.

All you need to bring is your sunscreen, sun-protective clothing, sunglasses, any food & drinks you'd like to enjoy onboard.

Captain Justin is an ace when it comes to fishing and hunting in Panama City Beach, and he's excited to get you out there. He loves working with anglers of all levels, including kids. In his words, "I have always felt most at home on the water where I enjoy both of my passions: fishing and waterfowl hunting. It has always been my dream to spread my passion and help others enjoy the outdoors. Working as a charter captain is allowing me to live out that dream! I look forward to talking with you, meeting you, and having nothing short of a great time, enjoying what we all love to do on the water! God Bless!"

Great day on the water today! I wanted to find some fish that put up good fight and it was delivered and catch a variety of species. We were on mahi-mahi shortly after getting on the water and moved on to amber jacks, grouper and snappers. It was great! The Cpt was personable, fun, and knowledgeable. Can’t wait to come back.

We actually went out with Chandler. He was awesome! He made sure we found the fish. We never sat at a spot too long without a bite. He was very patient with our children as well. We will definitely be back!

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is home to thousands of quality, vetted fishing, hunting, and other outdoor sports guides across the US and beyond. Our mission is to Unlock the Outdoors by making it quick and easy to book the trip of a lifetime every time with our Damn Good Guides.

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
