About Your Trip

Captain's Choice! You'll have ample time for bottom fishing! It will take about 2 hours to get out to one of our favorite fishing spots so we will be high-speed trolling on the way in & out. Then we will have about 4 hours of bottom fishing time once we reach the spot.

The boat has a bathroom, air conditioning, a Bluetooth speaker, a table with bench seating, and a cover over the back deck to help shade the sun.

Please arrive at the dock 15 minutes before your trip. All the necessary items for fishing, including a fishing license, ice, bait, and tackle will be provided. *Note* If you want to fish with live bait, please bring $40-$100 cash. We will stop at the bait barge on the way out to purchase some.

Don't forget to bring your sunglasses, sunscreen, hat, camera, drinks, snacks, motion sickness medication, and a tip for the crew.

We may encounter various species of fish during our trip including King Mackerel, Spanish Mackerel, Wahoo, Amberjack, Red Snapper, Vermillion Snapper, Triggerfish, Red & Gag Grouper, Cobia, Tuna, and Shark. The marina offers fish cleaning services for a small fee, so we will gladly help you get your fish to them once we arrive back at the dock.

If you have any questions we haven't answered, please don't hesitate to contact us directly! Ask about our specials!!

We look forward to having you aboard!

I moved to Panama City several years ago and started off as a deckhand. I soon realized how much I enjoyed showing friends and families a great time on the water while they are here for vacation. I decided after a few years that I would purchase and run my own tour boat business. We now offer several different private group tours for sightseeing and deep-sea fishing. I look forward to having you aboard! ~GR
