South Walton Guide Service is located in Santa Rosa Beach and offers to show you a memorable time in these waters.

Capt. Kyler will do his best to make sure you have a fun day full of fishing. This involves 2 to 4-hour trips, mainly fishing for Redfish, Spanish Mackerel, Flounder, Jack Crevalle, Speckled Trout, and Sheepshead, depending on the season and conditions on the day. On these trips, you can expect to use techniques such as light tackle, trolling, bow fishing, and spinning.

Your fishing adventure starts on a 22’ Pathfinder boat that can safely take up to 4 anglers. This boat comes with an ice-box and a wireless trolling motor.

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. The crew will clean and fillet your catch for you to take home at the end of the trip. The boat will be supplied with drinks for your pleasure, be sure to let the captain know if you have any questions or want to bring your own.
