There’s a fish with your name on it in Panama City and Reel Twisted Inshore Charters will help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Dalton can tell you all about them.

Species like Jack Crevalle, Black Drum, Gag Grouper, Redfish, Mahi Mahi, Mangrove Snapper, Sheepshead, Red Snapper, Vermilion Snapper, Lane Snapper, Spanish Mackerel, Flounder, and more inhabit these waters, depending on when you go. For these species, you’re likely to troll and bottom fish using light tackle.

Reel Twisted Inshore Charters welcomes kids aboard, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Snacks are never a bad idea so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly!

Your trip begins aboard a 22’ Sea Pro bay boat that holds up to 4 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Capt. Dalton will provide rods and reels for you, as well as lures.

The charter boat covers your fishing license, just show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. If you don’t know what to expect, ask the captain. It’s recommended to bring sunblock (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

And that’s it! Your fishing trip with Reel Twisted Inshore Charters is just a click away.

4 Hour Trip (AM) on June 24, 2025

Captain Wade was ready and waiting when we arrived at Pier 98 Marina. He asked us if we wanted to try for Snapper before we trolled- we were first time salt water fisherman. My wife and I caught a number of grouper when something big hit her cigar minnow. She handed the rod to Wade- he fought it for a minute and said it was a big fish. He handed me the rod, and we switched back and forth driving the boat and fighting the fish. He asked if I wanted to continue several times and get on with our snapper fishing. I wanted to continue to fight the big fish, and Captain Wade was all about it! We got the fish up to the surface 4 different times. It was a shark that Captain Wade guessed would go around 500 lbs. The rod broke during the fight and I continued to fight it with a nub. His response was that if I broke his fishing rod on a fish that big it was well worth it! We were early going out, late coming in and we had a blast! Captain Wade is very knowledgeable, patient, and he loves fishing! Great first time experience for some folks from Arkansas!

4 Hour Trip (AM) on February 23, 2025

If you’re looking for an unforgettable deep-sea fishing experience, I highly recommend booking a trip with Captain Dalton! From start to finish, this outing exceeded all expectations. Captain Dalton is not just a guide; he’s a true professional with an in-depth knowledge of the waters and a passion for fishing that’s palpable. His attention to detail is unmatched, from preparing the boat with all the necessary equipment to making sure every angler feels comfortable and informed.

From start to finish Captain Wayde was amazing! He exceeded all expectations. We caught 7 sharks total and some bites from other fish. Weather your a seasoned angler or a first timer I highly recommend this charter. It’s not just a fishing trip it’s an experience you won’t forget. Already looking at booking the next one to bring the kids.

Capt. Wade is an awesome guy. Clint is also. My family enjoyed being on the boat with them. We caught fish and were very happy with what we got. I did notice how much they are in each others head. Experts of the industry. Both are very personable. Loved being on the boat with them and when we come back I will wait if I have to just to book a trip with them. Thank you so much Wade and Clint!
