Trips are generally run with the help of a First Mate/ Second Captain. It’s customary to tip the Mate/ Second Captain.  Spend the day with Mo Grouper and find out what the fishing in Panama City Beach is all about! Captain Ron and Captain Gidget will be your guides, bringing aboard years of local experience.

Depending on the season, you might hook into Red Snapper, Gag Grouper, Gray Triggerfish, Vermilion Snapper, Mahi Mahi, Amberjack, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Spanish Mackerel, and anything else that bites. During the trip, you might be trolling, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Snacks are also a good idea so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!

Your day begins aboard a 26’ Sea Hunt center console that can carry up to 6 anglers. It has all the essentials. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. Your captain will provide rods and reels. Live bait is available,  Don't forget to tip the Captain 10–20% to show your appreciation.

There’s no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more. It’s always wise to bring bottled water, sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. No glass bottles.

While not required, be assured all safety precautions are followed.  The Mo Grouper voluntarily requests the United States Coast Guard to complete a vessel safety check.  Rest assured the Mo Grouper has passed the inspection and gone above and beyond on safety precautions.
