Reel Twisted Charters is located in Panama City and offers to show you a memorable time in these waters.

Capt. Wayde will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing.

This involves 3 to 12-hour trips, mainly fishing for Snapper, King Mackerel, Dolphin, Amberjack, Grouper, and Cobia, depending on the season and conditions on the day. On these trips, you can expect to use techniques such as light tackle, heavy tackle, bottom fishing, trolling, big game fishing, drift fishing, and jigging.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 36' Hatteras sportfishing boat that can safely take up to 6 anglers. This boat comes with a toilet, AC, an ice-box, and a fighting chair.

All rods, reels, and terminal tackle are included in the price so you can focus on what really matters, fishing. Your trip will include all the necessary fishing licenses for the day.

8 Hour Trip – Spring on May 21, 2025

Captain Dalton was very accommodating and we were able to troll and bottom fish to catch what wer.were wanting. Deck hand Drew was amazing! He made sure we always had bait on our line and was quick to remove our catch and rebait. If you are looking for a friendly, professional crew that will put you on the fish, Capt Dalton and Drew are it! We will definitely use them from now on.

We had an amazing time! The crew was very out going and helpful. They knew we're to go for good fishing and put us right on the fish immediately. I definitely will be coming back next year. And if you're planning on taking a trip with them go with what they recommend you won't be disappointed

4 Hour Trip (PM) on June 15, 2024

Our trip with Reel Twisted Charters was great! Our friendly captain and crew went out of their way to make sure we caught fish! They even asked us what we wanted to fish for, and moved us around to get different varieties. They kept the fish coming! The boat was bigger than some and I appreciated the air conditioned cabin went the sun got a little too relentless. Our poles were kept baited, and fish were quickly taken off to get our poles back in the water as quickly as possible! We have used other charters, but this one was by far the best! They were accommodating, professional, and it was obvious they knew their business! Reel Twisted Charters will definitely be our go to from now on! Thanks guys, for a memorable and productive day!!

8 Hour Trip – Red Snapper Season on July 13, 2024

This was our first time with this charter and we had a great time. Wade and Clint knew where the fish were and put on the fish. If we went a few minutes without catching, we would move to the next spot. The rods and reels were in great condition and easy to use. There was a sitting area inside in air conditioning.
