Ready to battle powerful sharks right from the beach? Capt Ricardo, owner of Panhandle Pursuit Shark Charters delivers an unforgettable land-based shark fishing adventure across the Florida Panhandle, including Panama City, Santa Rosa Beach, Destin, Fort Walton Beach, Navarre, and Pensacola.
If you’ve ever dreamed of fighting a true ocean predator off the beach while also finding someone thats serious and driven with passion for the sport, this is your chance! I have spent the majority of my life fishing on these beaches and know the local shark fishery very well. While with the crew and I you may encounter a wide range of species including the legendary Great White shark. You’ll pursue these powerful predators using custom heavy-duty shark tackle designed for serious battles, including Tiagra 130 reels, our own line and leaders, and fresh massive baits weighing up to 40 pounds. Every setup is built to handle all of the ocean’s toughest apex predators. When people say they can take out baits in 7ft waves in stormy windy conditions, they're talking about me. I have successfully landed two 1000+ lbs great white sharks in a day with my friends on my free time. I love catching sharks for familys and am also a family friendly charter, no matter the age. Safety is always a priority for the clients and the sharks. I make sure everything works more than perfect for my clients, Ensuring all my clients I work hard to get everyone sharks for there trip and also ensuring a fun, safe, and memorable experience. All fishing licenses, shark permits, rods, reels, tackle, and bait are included also with a case of water that is provided for all trips. I can bring your group up to 10 chairs so make sure you speak with me beforehand for how many are needed for your trip. All you need to do is bring food, relax, and get ready for the fight of a lifetime. Come fish with the experts of land based shark fishing.

Highly recommend Pandandle Pursuit for your shark fishing expedition from shore. Caught a 5-foot bull shark. My two sons and niece had a great time. Charter boats are cool, but this was safe and “alotta fun for all.”

Thank you guys for the review and fkr booking with panhandle pursuit, i really appreciate it! My group and i had an amazing time with you guys and am looking forward to getting some more sharks with you guys in the future, thank you again!!!
Ricardo tried really hard to land us a shark, unfortunately the weather and sharks didn’t cooperate. If back in the area, we would book with him and try again!

Thank you guys for booking with panhandle pursuit! I really appreciate you guys leaving a review and am looking forward to taking you guys out again and landing some sharks!

Welcome to Panhandle Pursuit Shark Charters, I am Capt. Ricardo. I run land based shark fishing trips all over the panhandle of Florida, from Panama City all the way down to Pensacola beach. I love shark fishing with a great passion and have much love for all marine life. My goal is to show my clients that sharks are gentle giants and to keep them safe and protected for our ocean. I will demonstrate techniques and tips, while answering any questions provided to me, so don't be shy, I won't bite. I am also a family friendly service and love teaching kids about sharks so get them on the sand with me or I can come to where you're located and fish from your beach house, condo, Airbnb, you name it. I have attended multiple events on the beach for clients and will be honored to come out to yours. I have been fishing since I was little and have obtained tons of knowledge throughout the years, with the best possibility to catch sharks from the beaches of the panhandle. The best way to learn from me is to join me on the sand and experience catching sharks with me yourself. With that being said book a trip and come catch some sharks with me !!!
