Blue Water Connection – Billistic 

There's a fish with your name on it in Panama City Beach and Blue Water Connection will help you catch it! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Justin is prepared to put you on fish.

Depending on the time of year, you might hook into King Mackerel (Kingfish), Yellowfin Tuna, Vermilion Snapper, Wahoo, Blue Marlin, Red Snapper, Red Grouper, White Marlin, Snowy Grouper, Salmon, Gag Grouper, Lane Snapper, and whatever else takes the bait. Depending on the species you’re after, you may find yourself fishing with heavy tackle, trolling, drifting, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Justin can also have you kite fishing.

Blue Water Connection is a child-friendly charter service, so feel free to make a family day out of it! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Don't forget to bring snacks for a boost of energy when needed!

You'll be casting lines from the Billistic, a 48' Viking sportfishing vessel with room for 6 passengers. It has outriggers, a fighting chair, and all the essentials. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Rods, reels, and tackle are covered by the charter, along with lures.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. It's customary to tip the Mate 10–20% to show your appreciation.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

It's always wise to bring sunscreen (non-spray), sunglasses, and bottled water. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
