Twisted Anchor Charters, the picturesque view of the Emerald Coast can be all yours. Let Captain Jimmy show you the area’s flats and inshore waters, which teem with some incredible fish species.

Explore the wonderful scenery and have a calm and relaxing day on the water. Connect to the world of outdoors and enjoy the pristine nature with all its wildlife and incredible fishing opportunities.

You can choose from a short getaway or a full-day adventure. Capt. Jimmy will work hard to put you on what’s biting, including but not limited to Black Drum, Redfish, Flounder, Spotted Seatrout, and Jack Crevalle. Head father out, and you can also target Red and Vermilion Snapper, Amberjack, Kingfish, and more!

Twisted Anchor Charters uses primarily artificial baits to catch the target species. Sight casting to Redfish to get the satisfaction that you managed to catch what usually eats natural baits is a rewarding experience!

Your trip will take place aboard a 20’ Ranger bay bat. Built in 2008, the vessel comes powered by a 150 HP Yamaha engine. There is plenty of casting space for up to 2 anglers. The boat is rigged with a fishfinder, a GPS, a wireless trolling motor, and top-notch professional accessories.

All trips come with the use of quality rods, reels, tackle, and lures, as well as drinks and fishing licenses. Your catch will be cleaned at the end of the trip if you want to taste it for dinner later.
