If you plan on fishing in Fort Morgan, look no further than Blue's Charters.

These waters are known for Black Drum, Cobia, Flounder, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Pompano, Redfish, Sheepshead, Red Snapper, Spanish Mackerel, Speckled Trout, and more – with any luck, you'll find out for yourself! Depending on the species you’re after, you may find yourself spinning, popping, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Sawyer also offers Flounder gigging.

Trips with Blue's Charters are fun for all ages, so go ahead and bring the whole family along! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Customers are encouraged to bring snacks to ward off any mid-trip fatigue!

You'll be fishing aboard a 24' Kenner center console with capacity for 6 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water. Rods, reels, and tackle are included, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, just show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.

Some essentials to bring are sunglasses, sunblock (non-spray), and bottled water. Glass bottles are not allowed.

Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on the water with Blue's Charters.

Top Notch Experience
4 Hour Trip – Inshore/Nearshore AM on February 28, 2026

We’ve confidently referred our guests to Sawyer of Blue’s Charters for the past four years, and he has consistently delivered a top-notch experience. Sawyer has been a trusted captain for our guests long before this season — and this just happens to be his first year officially running his own charter business. The level of professionalism, knowledge, and care he brings to every trip is exactly why we continue to send guests his way. From clear communication to a safe, well-run day on the water, the experience is seamless from start to finish. If you’re looking for a reliable, experienced, and genuinely great captain, Sawyer and Blue’s Charters are an easy recommendation. We trust them completely — and so do our guests. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Response from Captain

Thank you so much for the kind words and continued support. It truly means a lot to have your trust and to be recommended to your guests year after year. I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to get people out on the water and share what I love to do. My goal is always to provide a safe, fun, and memorable experience for everyone who steps on the boat. Your support has played a big role in helping Blue’s Charters get off the ground this year, and I can’t thank you enough for believing in me and sending so many great guests our way. Looking forward to many more great days on the water!

4 hour snapper trip
on June 27, 2026

Sawyer is an expert at tailoring an experience to his customers' preferences! We were supposed to go out Friday morning, and Sawyer was honest about the conditions of the water. He rearranged his schedule so that we could have the experience we wanted on the water, catch our limit of fish, and make great memories we'll share for years! We will be back!

BEST Snapper Trip ever
4 Hour Trip – Red Snapper (AM) on August 2, 2025

We went on a snapper fishing trip with Captain Sawyer, and it was hands down one of the best fishing experiences I’ve ever had. I dont think I would book with anyone else as i know i would be disappointed if it was not as good as this trip. From the moment we left the dock, it was clear that Captain Sawyer knew exactly what he was doing. He put us right on the fish and kept us on them the entire trip. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable about snapper fishing, but he was very patient and great at helping me since it was my first trip. Whether you’re an experienced or new to offshore fishing, he makes the whole experience fun. He explained everything perfectly!! The boat was clean, well-equipped, and comfortable, and Captain Sawyer clearly takes pride in running a professional operation. We caught plenty of snapper and had an absolute blast doing it. If you’re looking for a great offshore fishing trip with a captain who works hard to put you on fish and make sure everyone has a great time, I highly recommend booking a trip with Captain Sawyer. I’ll definitely be going again.

Thank you so much for the awesome review! I’m really glad you had such a great time on the snapper trip. It was a pleasure having you on the boat, and I’m glad we were able to get you on some fish and make your first trip a good one. I appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, and I hope to have you back out on the water with Blue’s Charters again soon!

Great trip and Limited out with hogs
4 Hour Trip – Red Snapper (PM) on July 24, 20265 adults

Captain Sawyer has a great personality and fit our group perfectly. He put us on fish right away and we limited out with some nice big Red Snappers. Bigger then the rest we saw at the docks!!

Half Day With Captain Sawyer
4 Hour Trip – Inshore/Nearshore AM on March 6, 2026

I have fished in Panama City and out of Fort Morgan. Best fishing I've ever seen.We caught some Big Fish. Captain Sawyer was great at putting us on the Fish. Gear and boat was great. If you want a boat ride with little fish go to Panama City. If you want to catch big fish, go to Fort Morgan and take a trip with Captain Sawer. I will be going back. Great job Blue Charters.

Response from Captain
