Book a trip with Capt. Frank’s Fun-time Charters out of Carrabelle or Apalachicola and enjoy a fun-filled day on the salt or on the beautiful rivers. With more than three decades of experience as an avid angler and diver, Capt. Frank is a highly knowledgeable guide to the coastal treasures that Florida’s unparalleled Big Bend region has to offer.
Capt. Frank’s 24’ Sea Hunt Triton center console is best fished with a maximum of 4 serious anglers or sightseers. The boat, which features a deep V, T-top and high gunnels, is powered by a 250 HP Yamaha four-stroke engine and is loaded with up-to-date navigational and safety equipment, along with a 60-gallon inboard bait well.
Depending on the season you’ll be able to target a variety of offshore fish, including Red Snapper, Grouper, Black Seabass, Amberjack, Triggerfish, Bonito, and King Mackerel. The most popular inshore species that Capt. Frank targets are Flounder, Speckled Trout, Redfish, Spanish Mackerel, and Tripletail.
Freshwater adventures up the beautiful Apalachicola River, the Ochlockonee River, and the New and Crooked Rivers that form the Carrabelle River complement Capt. Frank’s saltwater excursions. Aside from the stunning scenery, these environments offer exciting fishing trips that target a variety of panfish—from Bluegill to Shellcracker, Largemouth Bass, Channel Catfish, and Blue Catfish.
Included in the price are top quality rods and reels, that won’t let you down when reeling in your trophy catch. The fishing license for the day is covered by the boat for all the anglers fishing.
It’s time to book a trip with Capt. Frank’s Fun-time Charters – you’ll have a great time fishing and will make lifelong memories together. Capt. Frank will love telling you about local history and lore and information about the fish that call these waters home.

I had some old friends in town from North Carolina and booked a charter with Capt. Frank & the Blue Hole II. The trip did not disappoint one bit. Snapped city! Capt Frank knows these waters better than most, tells a hell of a story and puts his heart & soul into the work. He puts his clients first and will fish harder than a one-armed clothes hanger. We caught our limit on snapper and some! Capt did tell us before the trip that there was no guarantee for fish but he’s sure do all he could. Just being on the water with old friends and being put on the gulf with an experienced captain is worth the trip. Fish is a bonus!

Captain Frank took us to several spots throughout the day. He told us many stories, some fun, some amazing. He was very knowledgeable about the area and the marine life. We caught lost of fish, some we were able to keep, some were out of season, so had to be thrown back, but they were fun to catch, regardless. Caught the biggest fish I've ever seen in real life...65lb baby Goliath grouper Great day on the water!

I took my son in law fishing with Captain Frank on October 22, 2022 and had a blast! We went over 10 miles offshore and caught well over 40 fish! And we never had to bait a hook! The Captain did everything for us, was very patient. He is a great guy to hang out with and was very knowledgeable about the history of the area and had fun stories to tell. I recommend Captain Frank's Fun Time Charter for anyone that wants to have a fun day and catch lots of fish!

Wow, we had a wonderful time out on the water with Capt. Frank. Very knowledgeable, put us on the fish. We were catching some as quick as we let down our bait. I would highly recommend Capt. Frank for a good time fishing and great conversation. Very helpful and a pleasure to fish with.
