Species like Sheepshead, Flounder, Gag Grouper, Mahi Mahi, Red Snapper, Black Drum, Amberjack, Vermilion Snapper, Redfish, Red Grouper, Mangrove Snapper, Speckled Trout, and more are in the cards if conditions are right. On these trips, it's common to bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Your vessel for the day is a 26' Blackjack Coastal center console that holds up to 6 passengers. It has all the essentials. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, so all you have to do is look forward to your trip! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.

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

First time at Port Saint Joe
4 Hour Trip – Bay on October 20, 2026 • 3 adults

Captain and equipment were superb, and he did everything possible to put us on the fish on multiple sites on the bay and up the canal towards the intercostal. Unfortunately it was not a good day to fish and our catch was meager at best. As experienced anglers, we know this can happen anytime and should not reflect adversely on a talented, experienced captain. We asked him to give us an orientation on the bay, and he did that in spades pointing out lots of places to try on our own, both on the bay, mouth to the gulf and the canal. We’d go with him again in a heart beat.

wonderful experience
5 Hour trip – Nearshore Snapper on June 11, 2026 • 5 adults

The instructions on the booming was accurate and had everything we needed to get to the trip and know what to expect. Our family too three teenagers and they had a blast. Captain Mason kept the kids moving with fish they could handle and moved around to find what we were looking for. While the kids were busy catching smaller catches Captain Mason helped the adults catch as much as we could. we caught red snapper, grouper & mahi mahi! Captain Mason was great conversation and did what he could to make sure we had a great trip. Would highly recommend.

Reported catch:

The afternoon started slow but Mason put us on the fish! Multiple groups taday came in talking about how slow the bite was, not for us! we caught our limit, and a ton more. 27 Reds is less than 4 hours. Mason chased the schools through the flats and we wore em out. most of the fish we had to throw back because they were to big! WTF right? I will see Captain Mason again, he knows these waters very well....Fyi, just dont be like my son and say your tired!! bring your big boy shorts and be ready to catch some fish.

Beautiful day! Lots of fish!
4 Hour Trip – Bay on October 12, 2026 • 2 adults

Only days after Hurricane Isaias we were supposed to go on an inshore trip, but Captain Mason suggested we push it back a couple of days and do a near shore trip instead. On our first stop we were on the red snapper, caught our limit, and continued to catch fish the rest of the trip. It was a great 4 hours! I highly recommend it!

4 Hour Trip – Bay on August 24, 2026 • 2 adults

Oh, what a day on the water! 🎣 I’m about as beginner as it gets when it comes to fishing, but Captain Mason had my husband and I pulling in non-stop action! Between the two of us, we landed Lizardfish, Catfish, Ladyfish, Flounder, Speckled Trout, plenty of Redfish, and yes... even SHARKS! 🦈 Captain Mason put together the absolute perfect vacation experience for us. Thank you for all your help! Can't wait to get back out there again. Until next time, cheers!

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.
Fishing has been a passion for me my entire life. I started fishing before I could walk good and have never let up. All my free time growing up was spent fishing. I gave up college baseball thanks to an injury then started bass tournament fishing and chasing saltwater excursions both Inshore and offshore. I have won numerous bass tournaments and have chased trout, redfish, snapper and grouper all my adult life. I have two wonderful kids that are both playing sports in college, a beautiful step daughter that's a nurse in Tallahassee and a stepson that was taken from us way too early in a car accident. So now that you know a little about me come book a trip and let's spend a great day on the water together. All licensing and bait is covered. Just bring some drinks and be ready to make some memories.

    Had a great day on the water with Captain Mason. His knowledge of the area shined as we caught fish while next to a boat that was not having success. Red Snapper and Grouper were fun, but the highlight was everyone having cramped hands trying to haul in those Amberjack!

    We had a great day with Captain Mason. He makes fishing fun and relaxing even while catching a ton of fish. We caught our limit of vermillion snapper plus many more we released, triggerfish, a huge amberjack that the sharks enjoyed before i could get in the boat, and a couple “big ones that got away”. Highly recommend Captain Mason for a great fishing trip!

    I have been on many fishing charters over the years, and our trip today was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Captain Mason put us on Red Snapper from the beginning to the end of our trip. He doesn’t hesitate to move when things slow down, and was extremely helpful with the less experienced fishermen.

    We took my son and some of his friends out for his 17th birthday. They had the PERFECT day! Caught soooo many fish! (Snapper, Grouper, Amberjack). Captain Brock went out of his way to make sure we had a successful trip. Definitely will go again and recommend!

    This was the first charter for me and my four high school and college age boys. The trip was a lot of fun, very successful, and Captain Mason took great care of us. He took a chance on taking us out to catch snapper, but it turned out great.
