Gulf Coast Water & Woods Guide Services offers professional inshore and nearshore guided fishing trips on the waters of Pensacola, Florida. Captain Marcus Stewart runs a family-friendly guide service where all age groups and skill levels are welcome. From quick and exciting catch and release trips to all day fishing excursions, you’re sure to find a package tailor-made for your needs.
You’ll be angling aboard a 24’ Blazer Bay center console boat that’s powered by a single 250 HP Yamaha engine, capable of developing a top speed of 30 knots. Apart from the full array of navigation electronics needed for a productive trip, the boat also has a livewell for bait, and a wireless trolling motor for sneaking up on the catch.
This part of Florida makes for some great fishing opportunities, bot inshore and further out. Expect to be going after a wide variety of fish species. These include Redfish, Sharks, Flounder, Sheepshead, Kingfish, Red Snapper (when in season) and plenty more besides. Bowfishing and Flounder gigging equipment is available upon request.
Captain Marcus will provide you with all the necessary fishing gear you’ll need for a successful trip. He’ll also clean and fillet the catch for your convenience after the trip. All you need to do is pack a pair of polarized sunglasses, and bring some drinks and snacks if you like. Then you’ll be ready to make your fishing dreams come true!
