Beaver's Guide Service is a small and successful fishing charter. It's owned by Bobby Beaver, a lifelong local with tons of knowledge of fishing in the surrounding area. Your captain specializes in many different trips, from backwater bay to Snapper fishing in the Gulf. He can do anything when it comes to catching fish, you just need to tell him what's your skill level and how you imagined your day out.

Santa Rosa Beach is the main departure point but this depends on the trip you take. You'll board a 22' Cape Horn that accommodates up to 5 guests. This center console is powered by a 200 HP Yamaha engine, navigational equipment that will help you find the schools of fish, and a live bait tank.

Take a trip in the bay and you can target Sheepshead, Spotted Seatrout, and Redfish. Nearshore waters hold lots of Mangrove Snapper.

While some trips are more suitable for experienced anglers, Capt. Bobby encourages you to bring your family along and let him teach the kids how to fish! It will be fun and educational, all at once.

He'll cover your fishing license, equipment, and clean your catch. You only need to bring some snacks and drinks for the day.

    Amazing trip!

    4 Hour Trip on August 28, 2026 • 4 adults

    We had a 4 hour trip (4 fishers in our group) with captain Alex on August 28th for a bachelor weekend, and it was a blast! We must have caught 20-30 fish of all different kinds, redfish, mangrove snappers, ladyfish, grunts, black drum, even a couple sting rays, you name it! The highlight of the day was a 10+ lb redfish, which was a blast to catch. Alex put us right on the fish with beautiful scenery, and whenever the fish stopped biting, he was quick to bring us to a different spot. We had a mix of veteran and newbie fishers, and everyone got some action! Fish we kept were filleted for us and enjoyed later that evening. Highly recommend this charter and thank you again Captain Alex for the amazing experience!

    Alex is fantastic!

    2 Hour Trip – Kids (AM) on July 14, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    Had a bit of difficulty catching anything other than catfish in the beginning, but Alex was determined! Took us to multiple spots that were all biting, and pulled out a handful of fish that included a good size black drum. Obviously wish we would have caught more, but Alex did absolutely everything he could to ensure we had a great time!

    Alex was a great captain!

    2 Hour Trip – Kids (AM) on October 22, 2026 • 4 adults • 3 children

    We had a great time and caught some definite keepers. We got a text with the location, that conflicted with where this app said to go. Other than that it was great.

Captain Robert has been fishing for over 20 years in the area and he knows these waters like the back of his hand. Fishing was one of his favorite activities ever since he was a kid, so it just felt natural do make it into a profession. This way, he gets the chance to meet new people all the time and introduce them to the world of fishing.
