Sunshine Fishing Charters is a locally-owned fishing charter out of Fort Walton Beach. Located in the heart of the Florida Panhandle, you can take advantage of the fantastic fishing opportunities on offer inshore or in the Gulf’s nearshore. Captain Jordan Nelson has been running fishing trips for over 20 years and is determined to help you land the fish of your dreams. Having been raised in the area, he’s the perfect guide for your day out.

You’ll be fishing out of a spacious 22’ Cape Horn boat, powered by a 225 HP Honda engine to give it a maximum speed of 35 knots. The boat’s T-Top will provide shade from the sun, while its large casting area on the bow will give you plenty of room to hook your target fish. With a live bait tank on board as well as GPS, fishfinder, and a VHF radio, the boat is well equipped to put you on the fish and get you reeling ‘em in.

During your trip, you can fish the bays for Redfish and Trout or travel further out to fish for Red Snapper and Grouper in the Gulf. Capt. Jordan suggests sight fishing for Redfish along the beach, spinning for Red Snapper, and fly fishing for Trout, and he’s happy to lend a helping hand to any novice. All the live bait and lures you will need are included in the price of the trip, as are rods, reels, and tackle. You just need to bring snacks and beverages you might want during the trip.

At Sunshine Fishing Charters you’re guaranteed to find a family-friendly atmosphere, as well as a professional service to make sure you get the most out of your trip. Children of all ages are welcoming and Capt. Jordan is determined to keep everyone entertained – even if they don’t like fishing. The fishing opportunities, though, are the number-one attraction, and this is not an offer to be missed.
