About Your Trip

Hop on board with Captain Jake for an awesome day of bay fishing! The Pensacola inshores are a fantastic spot to chase after some of the prized fish that Florida is known for without heading too far form the dock.

are welcome to get as involved as you would like with your adventure as well, whether you'd rather lounge until the reel starts screaming or if you want your hand on the rod the whole time, Captain Jake can make it happen!

Beyond superior service and luxurious amenities, Captain Jake also provides the best rods, reels, tackle, bait, and fishing licenses you could possibly need for a successful day out on the water. Thus, all you need to bring are your favorite lunch, snack, and drink, your sun protection, maybe a towel, and your camera!
