Excellent Trip - Looking forward to doing it again!
Half day trip on May 22, 20261 adult
The bay was very choppy due to the wind, so Scott recommended going up the intercoastal waterway where it was calmer. I'd never done that and it was quite a pleasant surprise. We fished miles of the bank going towards Destin. I look forward to doing this again in the Fall when I return.
Reported catch:
Speckled Trout

Great experience.
Two Hour Trip on September 24, 20252 adults
I don’t really fish but my teenage son loves it. I wanted to find someone who could take us amd make things easy. That is exactly what captain Scott did. He was very friendly and knowledgeable of the location. He set us up with multiple lures so we can try them out and see what worked for what type of fish. My son was able to catch two beautiful trout as well as some other throw backs and I was even able to pull a couple in (including some sort of lizard fish with a lot of teeth). We only booked 2 hours so the amount we caught during that time was well worth the trip!

Great Day FISHING
Half day trip on June 16, 20261 adult
Captain Scott was great! He got us on some fish and the action was nonstop for awhile. Wound up with some keepers, took them to Dat Cajun Place and had them cook it up(Recommend by Captain Scott) Overall great day would definitely do it again!

Great Day Fishing
Half day trip on August 7, 20252 adults
My son and I had a great day with Scott Chandler and West Bay Fishing Charters. We hit speckled trout in West Bay and were able to catch some redfish in the Intracostal Waterway. Scott is a fantastic guide and and was able to put us on fish. Communication, boat, and equipment were all great! My son and I really enjoyed our time fishing with Scott and plan to call him up next we're back in Panama City.
Reported catch:
Redfish
