Bay Shore Drive 312
Panama City Beach, FL, United States

Panama City Beach has a fish with your name on it, so let Redwater Guide Company help you catch it!

We target Redfish and Trout in the backcountry and on the flats surrounding Panama City Beach. This is a backcountry, shallow-water pursuit aimed at getting you close to the fish and closer to nature.

Local species include Redfish, Speckled Trout, Black Drum, Jack Crevalle, Flounder, and more with any luck. You’ll target your catch by light tackle fishing or fly fishing the flats and backcountry of Panama City Beach. Please Note: Redfish are catch and release only.

Families who love fishing together will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard!

You’ll be fishing aboard a 21’ Flats boat that holds up to 2 passengers. It comes with everything you need for a productive day on the water. You’ll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, including fly fishing gear.
There’s no need to buy a fishing license, just show up ready for some fishing!

Don’t forget to bring sunglasses and sunscreen. You may also bring anything you may want to eat or drink while on the water. Alcohol is allowed.

Get in touch with Capt. Max below and start planning your trip today!

We were quite pleased with our experience with capt max he was knowledgeable of the area and was able to put us on fish. It’s been quite hot here lately and made fishing tough but was able to put us on fish. We will definitely be booking with capt max again in the future

If you’re looking for a quiet fishing, and a perfect captain to do it, Max is the guy. Max was very educational on the different types of fish, and very well knew where the hotspots were.We will absolutely be back.
