Which results in catching lots of Big Fish and making lifetime memories which sets me apart from the rest.

Captain Keith is extremely passionate about both fishing and helping others experience and enjoying the outdoors.  He takes great pride in showing his clients what the great fishery of Gulf of America. He is very enthusiastic and dedicated guide who will go above and beyond for his clients to not only catch fish, but most importantly to have a great time doing so!

Old Town Charters offers tailor-made trips that will satisfy any angler's needs, regardless of age or skill level. And if you are looking to butt heads with some world-famous fish, we offer several different trips.

When fishing inshore, you'll go for a medium-action rod with a spinning reel, perfect for hooking redfish, speckled trout, sheepshead, black drum, and King Mackerel. Offshore, you'll chase Red Snapper, Amberjack, Cobia, Barracuda, and many other species around the local reefs and wrecks.

Old Town Charters includes all the necessary fishing equipment that will make an outstanding catch possible: rods, reels, tackle, lures, live bait, and a fishing license for your group. You can also have your catch cleaned and prepared to take home with you for a small additional fee, or take it to a local restaurant and have it cooked.

Capt Made it Worth While
Captain's Choice (AM) on October 4, 20252 adults1 child
Captain Keith contacted me days before our trip to see if we could be flexible. He had been monitoring the conditions days out and realized our scheduled trip was going to be under suboptimal conditions. Unfortunately, our itinerary couldn't accommodate a shift in dates, but Captain Keith still made it work. When large swells prevented us from going further into the gulf, he brought us near the shore, and within minutes we were pulling up snapper faster than he could re-bait the hooks. Captain Keith was great with my 12-year-old son, and taught him a lot about the area, species, and techniques. If you schedule the Captain's Choice, he will get you on fish.

Best Day Ever
Captain's Choice (AM) on October 1, 20253 adults
Keith made sure we had the most incredible time. He was kind, patient, and passionate. You can tell he loves to fish and loves to share that experience with people. We took our son out for the first time at 14 on the open ocean. He answered any and all questions and tried to pack as much in as he could in 4 hours. We caught fish to eat, fish so big to tell stories about and he even tried to help my son catch a shark. We will for sure be back. Anyone who is looking to have an unforgettable day making memories so definitely go with Keith. Anytime we are in PCB we will be back for sure. It’s worth every penny and then some just to see our sons face after.

Awesome Fishing with Captain Keith Burch
Captain's Choice (PM) on March 14, 20263 adults1 child
We had a great experience with our fishing guide, Keith Burch. He came prepared with plenty of bait, knew exactly where to take us, and worked hard to make sure we caught fish. Thanks to his expertise, we landed some huge grouper along with several other great fish. He clearly cares about his clients having a successful trip, and we would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a great day of fishing.

Captain Keith is the best!!!
Captain's Choice (PM) on February 17, 20264 adults
My family had the best time. Captain Keith put us on the fish, kept our poles in the water, and gave us plenty of laughs. He also showed and told us about local spots on the way to our fishing stops. If you’re looking for a captain that takes you to the spot, teaches and encourages you and gives you plenty of entertainment at the same time….Captain Keith is your man

First time fishing with a charter
Captain's Choice (AM) on September 3, 20252 adults
I was a little nervous about how it would go, it was my first time fishing on a charter, never met Captain Keith and was taking my wife. I shouldnt have worried, it was terrific. Captain Keith told us where to meet him-easy. He picked us up and gave us a tour as we left the marina and headed to the fishing location(s). He put us on fish right away and we caught the heck out if them. After a while, he moved locations so we could catch bigger fish, and that went great too. We caught groupers until we had sore hands and blisters. It was so much fun. Captain Keith is a joy to be around and took care of everything. i cant wait to cone back and go fishing with him again.
