Let NautiBuoy Charters take you on an amazing fishing adventure through the beautiful waters of the 'Forgotten Coast.' St. George Island is in a unique location, situated between the Apalachicola Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, and Captain Jeremy Willoughby will have you fishing all the best spots in both bodies of water.

His 21' Parker center console is powered by a 175 HP Yamaha engine with a maximum speed of over 40 knots. You'll waste no time getting to the fish, and with onboard GPS, fishfinder, and radar, you'll be sure to stay on them once you're there! She's spacious, accommodating up to 4 guests per trip, and everyone can fish at the same time.

The boat comes with everything you'll need for a great day on the water, including a live bait tank, high-performance lures, and rods and reels for a variety of techniques. All of the captain's tackle is in excellent condition, manufactured by Penn and Shimano.

You'll be surrounded by prolific waters full of Snapper, Redfish, Grouper, Black Drum, Mackerel, Cobia, and occasionally even Mahi Mahi. Capt. Jeremy will either take you fishing in the Apalachicola Bay to target inshore species or 9 miles offshore to catch pelagics. No matter which trip you choose, he'll work hard to help you fill the boat with delicious fish you can take home!

Capt. Jeremy is a friendly and experienced captain who loves nothing more than being out on the water. He'll do his very best to make sure you're having fun and catching as many fish as possible. When your trip is over, he'll even clean and fillet your catch so it's ready to throw on the grill once you get home.

Your fishing license is covered, so you can just come straight to the dock ready to fish. Feel free to bring the kids as well. Capt. Jeremy has vests for them but parents should still bring their own. Just pack up snacks, drinks, sunscreen, and a hat, and you're all set. Book your next fishing trip with NautiBuoy Charters and get ready for an adventure of a lifetime!

    Terrible weather but big Reds on tight lines!

    4 Hour – Bay Fishing (AM) on December 19, 2023 • 4 adults

    Original date booked the weather wasn't bad. Jeremy was easy to work with on splitting the day up to a morning trip and an afternoon trip. He's super helpful, super nice and super knowledgeable! He put us on the fish and did everything for us. I have used him in the past and when we are vacationing at Saint George Island I will call him again and book more trips with him. He's a 5 outta 5 Everytime!

    Too Big for Fish Tacos

    4 Hour – Bay Fishing (AM) on July 11, 2024 • 3 adults

    Hooked a Goliath Grouper Inshore fishing , broke off after crazy 5 minute fight on light tackle. Made the Redfish and Seatrout we caught seem like bait. Plenty of action throughout the morning!

    Put us on the fish

    4 Hour – Bay Fishing (AM) on March 11, 2024 • 2 adults

    Jeremy was great. Patient, knowledgeable,engaging and had a great sense of humor. He put us on the Sheephead. Caught a bunch, with the top three ranging in size from 4 1/2 to 5 1/2 pounds. Great eating. He knew the areas to fish and we caught some in each area. Would highly recommend. Steve

Lots of Action.
4 Hour – Bay Fishing (AM) on July 9, 2024 • 3 adults

My son, Son in Law, and I are experienced fishermen, and know when the fish “aren’t biting. Captain Jeremy put us on fish anyway! We caught and lost a wide variety on a “slow day”. Were coming back for “A Good Day”!!

Captain Jeremy Willoughby grew up freshwater and saltwater fishing along the Florida Panhandle. It's something that has been carried down through his family from generation to generation. His great-grandfather was a captain in West Palm Beach so he spent most of his childhood on his boat, helping him, learning about fishing, and patiently waiting for the day that he'd continue the family business. He began running his own charters in 2009 and it's brought him nothing but joy and success. Capt. Jeremy is also a firefighter, having traveled all over the country to battle wildfires. Because of this, he takes his customers' safety and concerns very seriously. He is an optimistic person, always looking to turn each experience into a learning one. Overall, you can expect a patient and extremely knowledgable guide who will work tirelessly to put you on fish. Join NautiBuoy Charters and get ready for an unforgettable adventure fishing the Florida Gulf with Capt. Jeremy!
