Drop Zone Shark Fishing was created by Captain Zach in 2021 to give others the opportunity to catch sharks from the beach. We are located in Destin, Navarre, Santa Rosa Beach and Panama City. We offer custom trips in other parts of Florida and the Eastern Coast of the United States. We have all custom reels and make our own rigs and gear. We use drone and professional kayakers to deploy the bait up to 800 yards off the beach. We can fish in up to 50 mph and 7 foot waves so we do not cancel on you. If you are looking for the best shark fishing experience in the Gulf this is it. Fishing for sharks off the beach in our eyes is superior to pulling them beside the boat and leaving the hook in their mouth. From the beach we can get a proper family photo and release. We specialize in bull, tiger and greater hammerhead shark fishing in the warmer months and Dusky and other pelagic sharks during the colder months here on the panhandle. Shark fishing is our life and we are on the sand everyday the weather permits either running trips, catching bait or dialing in the bite for an upcoming trip. We have spent years studying the migrations of every shark species here. We have many what would have been record sharks if killed. This is a new style of fishing only possible with modern gear. We are the most experienced in the area and showed the ropes to many of sharkers all over the world. Sharks are highly migratory so contact us about whats biting. Come shark fishing with the pros!

6 hour trip for tigers and hammers
My family and I visited the Tampa FL area for a winter family vacation and wanted to do something we’d remember for a lifetime. I searched through dozens of charters and stumbled upon the 6 hour shark fishing charter with Zachary and booked it after reading reviews! From the moment we booked, communication was excellent. Solomon was our POC and charter lead and he built our anticipation for our charter by confirming the bite was very good the night before our charter. We arrived promptly at 6pm and Solomon had 3 reels all set up and bait ready to go out! Once he explained how to work the reels, he kayaked our bait out we sat down, and 15 minutes later, we had a bite!!! Solomon showed My two young boys (9 and 11) how to reel and they got some action! My husband reeled it the rest of the way! We did get 2 more bites, but the shark stole our entire bait off of one and nibbled on the other lol such an awesome time! There were other charters out, and when the other guys got bites, Solomon walked us down so we could see more sharks. The camaraderie amongst the shark anglers was amazing to see. They all helped one another and encouraged one another throughout the night! Such an amazing experience and I recommend this charter to anyone! The next time my family and I are back in the area, we will be rebooking!
