Bout Time Charters specializes in affordable and fun trips in and around Pensacola, Florida. Join the crew for a day out on the beautiful Pensacola Bay and Santa Rosa Sound or head out into the nearshore waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
Whether you are a beginner who has never held a rod in their hands, a seasoned professional, or just want to introduce your kids to fishing, you have found the right place. With Captain Brett, you don't have to travel too far out to enjoy an outstanding bite. There is a lot of fun for less money!
There is no need to limit yourself to backwater fishing. If the weather cooperates, you can venture out into the Gulf for a healthy dose of Snapper, King Mackerel, and Grouper.
Or just stay within the calm waters of Pensacola Bay and explore the inshore bite. Get your hands on Redfish, Flounder, Sheepshead, Speckled Trout, and Spanish Mackerel. And don't forget about Sharks that can be caught any time of the day!
All trips come with fishing licenses, tackle, ice, quality rods and reels, and fish cleaning. It's a good idea to bring your own food, drinks, sunscreen, a car, a small cooler to take your catch home with you, and a camera.
Bout Time Charters will welcome you, your friends, and family aboard a Federally Permitted 31' Cape Horn. This is one of the bigger boats in the fleet. This is a clean, seaworthy boat that comes powered by a pair of 300 HP Suzuki engines. There is plenty of fishing space for up to 6 anglers.
The boat is outfitted with state-of-the-art navigational and fishfinding electronics, as well as other professional tools and accessories. Its Minn Kota i-Pilot trolling motor will hold you on the spot all day and the t-top will provide extra shade. All aboard!

“Epic Offshore Adventure with a Pro Captain!”
6 Hour Offshore Trip - 1:00 PM on April 1, 2026 • 3 adults
Had an unforgettable day with Brett at Bout Time Charters! From the start, he kept us updated on weather and sea conditions and made sure everyone felt comfortable—even if you’re new to offshore fishing. Once we headed 18 miles out, the action didn’t stop: we hit our limit of Vermilion Snapper and even caught several other species. Brett’s experience, professionalism, and easygoing personality made the whole trip smooth, fun, and stress-free. If you want a top-notch fishing adventure in Pensacola with a seasoned captain who genuinely cares about your experience, Brett is the one to book!

That's a Big Fish!
6 Hour Offshore Trip on April 1, 2026 • 3 adults • 2 children
Captain Brett was great to work with! With a family of 5, I wasn't sure what type of trip would be best. He answered my many questions before the trip and checked in with me before the trip. We did a 6 hr trip and spent time both near shore catching Spanish Mackerel and then went off shore to catch Vermillion Snapper and Amberjack. What an amazing trip! Captain Brett was great with the kids and attentive to what we wanted to do. I would recommend him to anyone! We drove an hour to charter with him and would gladly do it again! Thanks for a great trip!

Great day on the water
8 Hour MEAT HAUL Offshore Trip on August 2, 2025 • 4 adults
Met captain at location everything just like he said. Stopped first to catch bait went well moved on to catch snapper didn’t stay there long because caught limit. My son caught a 19lb 34 inch snapper first drop. Plenty of vermillion snapper. Amberjack was fun to watch 8 hr meat haul trip worth the money. Captain Brett was by far the best in the business. From departure felt like it was our boat. He knows where the fish are
