Excited to catch some fish in Apalachicola? Trouble Maker Charters is your ticket! With Captain Brandon at the helm, you're in knowledgeable and experienced hands.
Depending on conditions, you might hook into Red Grouper, Hogfish, Sheepshead, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Blackfin Tuna, Lane Snapper, Red Snapper, Wahoo, Speckled Trout, Redfish, Tripletail, Pompano, and whatever else takes the bait.
During the trip you might be spinning, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Brandon can also take you Flounder gigging. For the more adventurous among you, there's bowfishing.
Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Feel free to bring your own snacks to maintain your energy throughout the trip!
Capt. Brandon operates a 20' Sportsman center console with capacity for 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Capt. Brandon has rods and reels for you, along with lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.
Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. It's customary to tip the Mate 10–20% to show your appreciation.
There's no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.
A few items to bring include sunglasses, bottled water, and sunblock (non-spray). If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Trouble Maker Charters!
