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 time with a great guy, Captain Scott. He put us on the fish right away. We caught speckled trout and redfish. We enjoyed the company as much as the fishing. Would highly recommend!

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.
