angler's choice

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.

Over the last 20 years, Captain Craig has fished the waters of Pensacola, Gulf Shores, and Orange Beach, as well as Destin, Indian Pass, St. Joe’s Bay, Amelia Island, and Key West. Craig’s long love for the water and the smell of salt in the air has made him fulfill his lifelong dream of guiding. After 25 years in retail management, he decided to start his own charter company. Craig is passionate about making every adventure a great experience for all of his guests. He especially enjoys putting his younger clients on their first fish and seeing the smile on their faces. Captain Craig’s goal is to "Live life to the fullest every day". Captain Garret Verble grew up locally and has always enjoyed and spent a lot of time saltwater fishing. He has a strong passion for the salt air and Emerald waters.

What a great day!! Fish on!!!!

VERIFIED

We had a great experience with Cpt Craig! He put us on fish and we caught our limit! Then on the ride back we visited the waters close to the Navy Base and watched the Blue Angels practice from the water!! At the dock, the Captain cleaned our fish for us to take home! The captain and other members of his team treated us with kindness and was thankful for our business! Would definitely come back when in the area!!
