Lost Bay Charters operates out of Perdido Key offering the area’s only “Catch Fish Guarantee”. From shallow flats to offshore depths, if you don’t manage to catch a fish, your next trip will be free – that is how confident Captain Bill is that each trip he runs will be a success!
You’ll be fishing aboard a 24’ Skeeter center console which was built in 2015, and can comfortably carry up to 6 guests. The vessel makes for a very versatile fishing platform, able to fish habitats ranging from shallow flats and backcountry, all the way out to offshore reefs and pelagic waters.
The boat comes equipped with everything you’ll need for your trip, including the latest electronics and navigational equipment to track down the best spots. There’s a silent and stealthy trolling motor to sneak up on even the spookiest fish, and a livewell bursting with fresh live bait that nothing in the water will be able to resist.
What you target on your trip with Lost Bay Charters is entirely up to you, with inshore and offshore trip options at a variety of lengths. Inshore charters will see you targeting Redfish, Trout, Flounder, Snapper, and Sheepshead. Those heading offshore will have a chance at bagging anything from Grouper, Snapper, and Triggerfish, to King Mackerel, Mahi Mahi, and even Sharks!
What really sets the crew apart from the rest is their “Catch Fish Guarantee”. It is impossible to go wrong with an experienced captain who is willing to stake his pay and his reputation on you catching fish every single time. Couple that with an awesome boat, world-class gear, and some of the best fishing grounds in the Gulf, and you have the recipe for a truly unforgettable fishing experience.
The fleet consists of four Captains – Capt. Bill, Capt. Noah, Capt Gavin and Capt. Clay. They all have a lot of knowledge and experience to share with you, so make sure to book Lost Bay Charters today for a trip of a lifetime!

6 Hour Trip (AM) – Inshore
Jake was knowledgeable, smart, accommodating, and over all super cool and nice. We've been fishing on charters off the emerald coast from Destin to Gulf Shores for close to 30 years, Jake made a great impression and I fully plan to book with him again next summer. Haven't met a genuine guy and captain like that in several years. 20 stars out of 10

Wind was terrible and one of my boys is young. The captain worked hard to get us in fish and make sure my youngest got to reel some in!

Filled the bucket with mackerel - and grilled them that night. Captain Clay found several spots, and we came up with something each time, but mackerel was the big hitter today! Even hit live bait dragging temporarily in the water! Thanks, Captain Clay!

Captain Clay definitely knows his trade! He worked so hard making sure our family had a wonderful experience on our chatrter. He even allowed us extra time on the water until we had each pulled in some fish.
