    Awesome fishing trip

    5 Hour Trip (AM) on July 19, 2024 • 3 adults

    Captain Wyatt and deckhand was simply amazing. We caught our limit of snapper early then moved on to filling the box with other fish. Been on several charters and this was the best yet. He put us on Mahi and we had the best time catching them. If you are looking for a charter in Panama City, this one is the best. Thank you Captain Wyatt and crew for the best charter ever!!

    Had a fantastic Sunday morning fishing with Wyatt. Immediately on fish and snapper limit by 9am. Continued to catch fish at every spot we stopped at. Wife’s first time salt water fishing and they were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Would recommend to anyone looking to have a great time and wear out the fish.

Capt. Wyatt runs trips out of Panama City Beach aboard a 24' Mako center console. These waters are known for Snappers and Groupers and he will show you how to catch them, whether you're trolling or bottom fishing. With years of experience, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!
