Pharmasea Outfitters – 23'

Experience an unforgettable day of fishing with Pharmasea Outfitters! Captain Brandon and his crew are based in dreamy and peaceful Santa Rosa Beach, a perfect location for a productive day on the water. Whether you stay in the inshore spots or head out further in the Gulf, you’ll come back to the dock with some tasty fish in the cooler.

Your journey starts on a 23’ Pathfinder that accommodates up to 6 guests. This center console is light, yet spacious and can easily navigate shallow waters, or safely guide you to the nearshore spots. Powered by a 225 HP Yamaha engine and with a GPS and Garmin fishfinder, you’ll be chasing those fish like there’s no tomorrow.

If you’re more interested in staying close to the shore, you can explore backcountry, inshore flats, and bays and target tasty Trout, Redfish, Sheepshead, Pompano, and many more. And let’s not forget the Silver King - Tarpon, that’s always the main prize during the summer months. Head out a few miles further and you’re all set to target Amberjack, Grouper, and Snapper.

All fishing equipment and licenses are covered by Captain Brandon. He’ll also clean and fillet your catch free of charge. You just need to pack some snacks and drinks for the day, and don’t forget your sun protection.

Visit this idyllic fishing location and join Pharmasea Outfitters for a day of fun and excitement!
