Spend the day with Reel Steel Charters and get hooked on fishing in Panama City!

Species like Amberjack, Black Drum, Bonito, Cobia, Mahi Mahi, Gag Grouper, Red Grouper, Scamp Grouper, Mangrove Snapper, Red Snapper, Vermilion Snapper, Gray Triggerfish, and more could be biting, depending on the time of year. During the trip you might be light tackle fishing, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Reel Steel Charters welcomes kids aboard, so the whole family can come and unplug for the day! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. You're welcome to bring snacks to ward off any mid-trip fatigue!

You'll be casting lines from a 28' Parker pilothouse with a capacity for 6 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Your captain will provide rods and reels. Live bait is available, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

You'll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. Mates work hard to make your trip count, so a 10–20% tip is customary.

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.

Some essentials to bring are bottled water, sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Reel Steel Charters!

4 Hour Trip – Offshore (PM) on March 25, 20263 adults
Jason and Jennifer were amazing!!! My wife daughter and I set out to catch Vermilion Snapper and Red Grouper to keep and cook. Thats exactly what we got and more. Caught 2 red grouper. One had to be thrown back was under the 20inch regulation. The other was 20 inches. At least 10 trigger fish were caught, we kept one. The Vermilion Snapper were HITTING but were under the regulation. The wife caught some real exotic fish that Captain Jason has never seen. 2 hrs into the 4hr trip our 12 year old daughter got sea sick which stopped the fishing. But didnt stop the fun Captain Jason ane Jennifer spotted dolphins swimming near shore and our fishing trip turned into a dolphin tour. Great experience. The customer service, fishing, boat and experience were 5 stars. Will definitely be back during Red Snapper Season.

6 Hour Trip – Offshore on June 2, 20264 adults
Justin and Jennifer provided an awesome day of fishing! We caught a ton of fish, just couldn’t keep them all due to size. We caught bonita and grunts for bait fish. We kept Red Snapper, Vermillion Snapper, Lane Snapper. Also caught Triggerfish. We saw lots of dolphins who stole our first and last fish of the day! LOL. Great day!

Wonderful trip with Capt. Jason and Jennifer
Special 3 hour trip for J. Zurcher on March 24, 20263 adults
We very much appreciated our time with Reel Steel Charters. Captain's communication and guidance before departure was excellent. Boat was great. And Jason and Jennifer were very pleasant--the kind of folks who are great to fish with and would be great to hang out with off the water. We caught several fish and were grateful for Capt. Jason accommodating our needs. Would definitely fish with again!
