Tradition Fishing Charters really does make the most of their location at the west of the Panhandle. With the nearby wealth of flats, inlets, and bayous, there’s always the option of exceptional inshore fishing. It also won’t take long to get offshore and to be at one with the sea, so captains of Tradition Fishing Charters invite you out to catch some excellent game fish, too. From Perdido Key itself, they know these waters better than anybody.
Riding a 24’ Kenner center console, you’ll be in complete comfort throughout your journey. The boat is powered by a 200 HP Suzuki engine and comes equipped with GPS and fishfinder, to make sure you’re on the fish as soon as possible. For shallower waters, the wireless trolling motor will ensure that you can sneak up on the undisturbed fish and catch sight of them to reel ‘em in.
You’ll target a range of species, including Redfish, Sheepshead, Flounder, and Speckled Trout inshore; while Cobia, Red Snapper, King Mackerel, and Spanish Mackerel are the order of the day offshore. Trips include rods, reels, tackle, live bait, and lures to make sure you’re prepared for a catch. Try your hand at spinning, jigging, popping, or even trolling! The crew will clean and fillet your catch for you to take home for lunch or dinner.
No matter if you’re a hardcore experienced tournament angler, a complete novice, or just looking to entertain the kids, Tradition Fishing Charters will provide an enjoyable experience on the water for all. They love nothing more than helping people make their first catch, so don’t hesitate to ask them.

3 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM)
Our Captain James was awesome I told him we had a newbie and the rest were inexperienced. Grandkids 12-10 years old they loved it . We all caught fish but we missed a ton of bites . James kept us baited up and was very attentive to all of us . The boat was great clean and ready to go when we arrived. Thank you James for a great trip and be so friendly and patient

3 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM)
We had a great time with Captain James. He was very knowledgeable and helpful with our kids. Although we only caught a couple, we all had a very fun time. For some reason the bite wasn’t as fruitful as we anticipated but we still enjoyed our time and will book again.

James met us exactly when he said he would, took us straight to the “hot spot” and we were catching Spanish Mackerel with every cast, as soon as the line hit the water! We hauled the fish back, he cleaned and bagged them for us and took pics with us. Absolutely great experience!

Weather was very windy so it made things challenging. Capt James worked hard to put us on fish, we ended up having a great time and caught fish despite the weather! We will be back to give the weather another chance and we hope to use Capt James again!

2 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM)
The company and captain were very patient with me trying to book the trip for my 2 15yr old boys, not knowing the procedure. He also extended the trip an hour for a min imal price. My only regret is I arrived to pick the boys up after captain left so I couldn't tip him...overall great experience
