Capt. Sully Charters strives to make your fishing experience memorable on the waters of Panama City, Florida. Captain Brian Sullivan is an avid fisherman and a great teacher who really enjoys seeing his guests happy. This is what makes him happy, and he always gives his best to making everyone’s trip successful.

Fishing is done aboard a 21' Carolina Skiff, which has T-top for shade and a capacity for 4 persons. The vessel is powered by a 140 HP engine which makes it fast and stable, with a maximum cruising speed of 30 knots. The onboard GPS and fishfinder will reveal the productive spots, the livewell will hold the bait, and the icebox will keep your catch fresh.

On the nearshore trips, which run up to 9 miles out, you could catch a wide variety of fish – Red Snapper, King Mackerel, Triggerfish, Vermillion Snapper, Amberjack, Mahi Mahi, and Grouper. On the inshore trips, a whole other variety of fish is available such as Redfish, Speckled Trout, Spanish Mackerel, Black Drum, and Sheepshead.

The captain provides a fishing license for up to 4 people, as well as all rods, reels, and tackle, bait, and a cooler with ice for your beverages.

Capt. Brian says he can also customize your trip any way you want it – a little bit of sightseeing, or dock and dine, maybe take a fishing rod or two?!

It’s up to you, but one thing’s for sure – you’ll make valuable fishing memories with Capt. Sully Charters!

Amazing trip!
Captain's Choice on August 9, 20262 adults

We had a great experience on our fishing trip! Our captain was very knowledgeable and clearly an experienced fisherman. He genuinely put in the effort to get us on fish and didn’t waste time sitting in one spot if they weren’t biting. He had some great spots for us and kept moving when needed, which we really appreciated. He also went out of his way to see if we could find any mahi. Unfortunately, they just weren’t biting that day, but we really appreciated him trying anyway. You could tell he wanted us to have the best trip possible. He was also very friendly and easygoing throughout the entire trip. Toward the end, we spotted some dolphins in the distance, and even though dolphin watching wasn’t part of our trip, he was nice enough to stop and get us closer so we could get a better look at them. Overall, we had a really good experience and would definitely recommend him. If you’re looking for a captain who knows what he’s doing, has good fishing spots, and will actually make an effort to put you on fish, he’s a great choice!

Amazing Vacation Experience
2 Hour Kids Trip — Catch/Release on July 31, 20262 adults2 children

We are so glad that we booked this fishing experience with Captain Sullivan. It was a last-minute decision, but it allowed us to create some amazing memories together with our family of four. Our son loves fishing and he was able to catch a catfish and a spotted trout. Even our daughter who was hesitant to go fishing really enjoyed herself and didn’t complain once during the charter or put down her pole. She even caught a couple fish along the way. You can tell Captain Sullivan truly cares about his guests and wants to create a memorable experience for them.  Highly recommend and we will come back if we’re in the area again. 

Reported catch:
Speckled Trout

Understood the assignment!!!
4 Hour Trip — Bottom Fishing AM on July 2, 20262 adults2 children

Let’s just say Captain delivered. Absolutely a great fisherman. We spoke the night before to set some expectations and discuss what I wanted as a customer. Our trip was supposed to be from 7 AM to 11 AM. We arrived at 6:45 and immediately got on the boat and headed out . We did the nearshore bottom fishing and caught a crazy amount of fish. Not many keepers, but that wasn’t the assignment. My 12 year-olds first trip and he probably caught 50 fish. Captain kept him baited up and he was reeling them in two at a time. On top of that we caught a variety including trigger, snapper, grouper, b liner, and a little highlight of bonita. It’s not about what you take home at the end of the day. It’s about the patience with kids, great conversation, and effort put into giving us an experience. Captain had no issue giving us a little extra time and then even ran us over to the barbecue boat on Shell Island for some grub! This was the perfect four man trip. Book Sully today before someone else does!

Great time fishing with Capt Sully!
2 Hour Kids Trip — Catch/Release on July 20, 20262 adults2 children

We had a wonderful kids fishing trip with Capt Sully! He was very kind! He took extra caution to avoid the rough surf to make it an easier trip for the kids. He also took the time to take us to a couple of areas to be sure we were able to make a catch! Would recommend fishing with him!

Response from Captain

thank you had fun wish the weather was a little better but glad we got them out

Outstanding time on the water!
Captain's Choice on July 1, 20262 adults

Capt Sully was patient and took time to teach us (our first trip off shore). Meet up location was easy. Good conversation of our goals and current bite to match up. Sully was awesome with my 17 old son first saltwater experience. We caught red snapper, grouper and trigger fish. Capt was very knowledgeable of reel limits and seasons. Even took time to explain sonar, tides, depths, structure, etc. would gladly recommend Capt Sully

Reported catch:
Gray Triggerfish
