About Your Trip

Looking for a deep-sea fishing excursion out of Panama City Beach? Book a full day offshore charter trip and get ready to experience some of the best sportfishing the Gulf has to offer!

A full-day trip with Captain Harris will get you about 60 miles out, where you can catch just about anything! Your target fish will consist of Grouper, Scamp, Red Snapper, Mahi Mahi, Vermillion Snapper, Wahoo, Blackfin Tuna, King Mackerel, and Triggerfish. If conditions are right, you could even hook a Sailfish or a Blue Marlin—truly the champion sportfish in the Gulf of Mexico!

Captain Harris operates a newly-restored 40' Infinity sportfisher, powered by twin 420-HP Caterpillar engines and equipped with quality Simrad electronics. She's a fast, comfortable cruiser meant to handle anything the Gulf can throw your way, and features a ton of additional gear and amenities to enhance your trip, including outriggers, downriggers, live bait well, and an icebox to keep your drinks and food cool throughout the day.

Captain Harris will supply everything you need for a top-tier day, including all the rods, reels, and tackle. You can purchase bait before the trip departs, for a rate of $10 per hour. Bring some sunscreen and a pair of polarized sunglasses, and ready for a fishing adventure like none other!

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.

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.
