Gulf Coast Outfitters
Make an adventure out of your next trip in Carrabelle and go fishing with Gulf Coast Outfitters.
Depending on conditions, you might hook into Flounder, Redfish, Scallop, Blacktip Shark, Spanish Mackerel, Spotted Seatrout, Sunfish, Tripletail, Crappie, and anything else that bites. On these trips, it's common to troll using light tackle. Capt. John also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear.
Capt. John will bring you aboard a 24' hybrid Bay boat with room for 6 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Capt. John will supply rods and reels for you (except for fly fishing equipement), as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.
Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip. Fish caught during the trip are yours to take home, so long as they're within the legal limit. The crew can even clean your catch for you. Have a cooler ready in the car!
You can't go wrong when you bring sunblock (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.

We went close to shore and hit two batches of Redfish under some broken down docks. Caught about 12, hooked about 6 more that got free. Also got a sheepshead and several catfish. Caught one speckled trout a bit further off on the reefs. Released all of them.
John is a great captain. Found fish for us on a day that the weather started out questionable. The Trout were good suze and delicious for dinner. We'll go out with him again for sure.
John runs a great inshore charter. His boat is nice and he was well prepared for our morning trip. We had good weather with a slight breeze out of the East, and he kept us on fish all morning. He is very personable and helpful, assisting us with distance casting, baiting and removing fish from the hook. Cleaned our catch and packed it to go with some great ideas for preparing it! I would definitely recommend him.
Caught lots of trout, had fish tacos for dinner. John really took care of us.
Capt John it was a great time thank you for working as hard as did to put us on fish. That was my first cobia and reddish. The sea trout or. Weakfish was an added bonus Looking forward to go out again in the fall Vince
You’re too kind sir! It was a pleasure having you aboard and look forward to fall!
