Tail Raiser Charters 

My wife, 3 kids, and myself got a hold of Craig last minute to see if they were still running due to weather issues. They got us in Friday night so we could get some fishing in before Saturday departure back home. Brandon the deckhand even came back from home to get us in! They were up front about fishing being rough due to recent hurricane. We were still able to go out snag a handful and Brandon even cleaned them for us. Overall great experience, Brandon was great to talk to and edicated us on a lot. Will definitely be running with these guys again!

We had an amazing experience with this fishing charter! Craig (Captain) and Brandon were absolutely fantastic— and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. It was a slow-biting day, but they worked hard and made sure everyone had the opportunity to catch something. You could really tell they cared about making the trip enjoyable for everyone. We had a great time and would definitely recommend this charter to anyone looking for a fun day on the water!

We had a wonderful trip with Captain Craig and deckhand Brandon. It was so nice to have AC inside whenever we needed a break from the heat. We caught tons of fish and our 3 boys had a blast. Will definitely be rebooking!

4th trip with these guys and we always come back with fish for mulple meals. look forward to doing it again next year

The crew was amazing. The captain put us on a bunch of fish. The boat was clean and comfortable. Would recommend to anyone.

We took our two boys out woth Craig and Brandon and got into the fish right away. 58lbs later we heading back with smiles on our face! Highly recommend Tail Raiser charters!

great trip, we limited out on red snapper. caught scamp grouper and Red grouper. wonderful experience. Highly recommend.

From greeting us at the dock to waving goodbye, our experience on the Tail Raiser Charter was the best we've ever had. We cannot thank or compliment Captain Craig or Brandon, our deckhand, enough. They were awesome and went above and beyond to ensure that we had a great experience. We caught 163 pounds of red and black snapper, king mackerel and mahi mahi. What places Tail Raiser at the very top of my charter experiences is that Captain Craig asked what we were hoping to catch and then planned our trip in order to make that happen. Brandon kept all six of us with plenty of bait on our hooks, was happy to explain different fishing techniques and engage in conversation in between. Tail Raiser Charters is now our "go to" charter when in Panama City. We highly recommend that you do the same. Thanks Captain Craig and Brandon, we will definitely be back soon!

We went down for a weekend on a bachelor trip with a focus on our first fishing charter experience. Captain and first mate totally nailed it and we had a great time. We hit a hot spot of Spanish Mackerel and caught more than enough for dinner for 4. Side note- there’s a place right at the marina that will prepare/filet and vacuum seal everything you want to keep at a great price. Justin was super fun to go out with and was so fast to take the hook out and reset the line. We had a couple times where all four of us were on fish at the same time which was really cool. Highlight of our trip and will 100% do it again.

Two nights before our original Captain called and informed us that the weather for our scheduled trip was looking less than ideal. He offered to have another captain use his boat to take us the day before and although hesitant I agreed. We actually boarded “Tell N Tails” and the trip began. We did phenomenal the captain and his numbers were spot on and he insured we left with a “cooler full”. Wouldn’t hesitate to book with these guys again. 10/10 best captain and deckhand I’ve ever had.
