2 Hr trip with Ryan

2 Hour Surf Fishing Charter - 2:30 PM on December 22, 2025

This was our first beach guided fishing trip and it was a trip to remember. It was myself, my son and my sister, her husband and 3 children. Ryan was an awesome guide! He was very informative, attentive and great with the kids. We were able to look for seashells and watch the dolphins in between the bobs of the poles! He was ON IT when it came to watching the lines and baiting them. He put us ON! We caught blue fish. We were the only ones catching fish on the beach that day which made it that much more exciting. It was an absolute amazing experience and we all would highly recommend booking with him. We would definitely book Ryan again.

Surf Fishing in December Rain

3 Hour Surf Fishing Charter - 7:30 AM on December 7, 2025

We had a fun and successful trip yesterday with Ryan. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. He already had everything set up and ready as soon as we arrived and the fish started biting as we were walking up. We were on to the pompano and they were biting all morning, even in the rain. We ended the day only one fish shy of our limit. We were very pleased with our experience. It was a lot of fun and we learned a lot from Ryan. I highly recommend this charter, and Ryan as a guide

When we arrived on site Ryan already had the poles set up and the bait in the water. He was very informative and was explaining everything he was doing and what we were watching for. That day we caught two black drum, three blues, and a bonnet head shark. he exceeded our expectations!

Surf Fishing Trip with Ryan Mcmahon

3 Hour Surf Fishing Charter on September 20, 2025

We had an incredible experience with this surf fishing charter on the west end of Panama City Beach. Ryan was an outstanding guide - professional, knowledgeable, and fully prepared when we arrived. Within the first 15 minutes, we already had our first fish on! He handled everything from setup to baiting the hooks, so all we had to do was reel them in and enjoy the action. I will definitely book again next year
