About Your Trip

Head out with Captain Stephen for a 4-hour nearshore fishing trip that’s loaded with excitement and tailored to what’s biting! Whether you're new to fishing or a seasoned angler looking to bend some rods, this Panama City adventure is all about keeping lines tight and coolers full.

This trip is a mix of trolling and bottom fishing, giving you the best shot at a wide range of nearshore and jetty species. Depending on the season and conditions, you could be hooking into high-speed Kingfish and Bonito, going deep for hard-fighting Amberjack, or dropping down for reef favorites like Red Snapper, Vermillion Snapper, and Triggerfish. When the timing is right, you might even get a shot at prized catches like Cobia or Blackfin Tuna!

Captain Stephen brings a well-rounded arsenal to the table—live bait (available for an additional fee), cut bait, and artificial lures are all in play. You’ll use a combination of trolling, bottom fishing, drift fishing, jigging, and even topwater when conditions call for it. No matter your skill level, Captain Stephen will help you dial in the action and make the most of your time on the water.

Your fishing platform is a sleek 21’ Key West center console, brand-new in 2023 and built for comfort and performance. Powered by a 150 HP Yamaha engine, this rig is quick and nimble—perfect for working the jetties or chasing schools just off the beach. It’s fully equipped with GPS, fishfinder, a live bait well, and an ice box to keep your drinks and catch chilled. While there’s no restroom onboard, the quick trip length and comfortable layout make it a great fit for families and groups with kids.

All rods, reels, tackle, and licenses are included, and Captain Stephen will take care of cleaning your catch once you're back at the dock. You’re welcome to bring along your favorite snacks and drinks (just keep it glass-free), and you can connect your phone to play your own tunes while you fish.

With flexible start times throughout the morning and into the early afternoon, it’s easy to find a time that works for your crew. Whether you’re looking to jumpstart your day or sneak in a midday bite window, Captain Stephen is ready to get you out there and on the fish.

Book your nearshore trip today and experience the fun, fast-paced fishing that makes Panama City a top Gulf Coast destination!

Captain Steve was excellent. He moved our fishing location to get better results. He was on time, friendly and knowledgable. He was great with my 2 grandkids, 8 and 10. We didn't catch much edible fish but caught quite a few others - 5 species in total. I would recommend Captain Steve and would choose him again if the occasion arises.
