If you're ready to discover fishing in Panama City Beach, look no further than Gnarly Charters! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Chad knows them forwards and back.
Depending on the season, you might hook into Amberjack, Cobia, Red Grouper, Scamp Grouper, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Red Snapper, Gray Triggerfish, Spanish Mackerel, Vermilion Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, and whatever else is biting.
You can expect to do some spinning, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
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. Also remember to bring snacks!
You'll be fishing aboard a 26' Center console with capacity for 6 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience.
You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you. Live bait is available, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.
A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, just show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.
It's never a bad idea to bring sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Now, time to hit the water with Gnarly Charters!
