    Great Florida Fishing

    5 Hr- Captains Choice • 4 adults • 2 children

    We had an amazing experience with Captain Erick! We traveled from Texas to Florida for a family vacation to the beach and booked this fishing trip on the whim, and from the moment we booked through FishingBooker, everything was seamless. Communication was excellent—Captian Erick stayed in touch leading up to the trip, let us know where to meet and what time to arrive, and made the entire process stress-free. When we arrived, he greeted us with a smile and immediately made us feel welcome. He was especially wonderful with our daughters, always helping them with their fishing lines, encouraging them, and keeping a positive attitude throughout the trip. His patience and enthusiasm made the experience even more special for our family. We caught plenty of fish! While they weren’t quite big enough to keep, that didn’t take away from the experience at all. Our girls had an unforgettable time fishing in Florida, making memories we’ll always remember. If you’re looking for a friendly, professional, and family-oriented captain, we highly recommend booking with Captain Eeick. We will absolutely book another trip the next time we’re back in Florida!

    Awesome Fun

    5 Hr- Captains Choice • 2 adults

    Captain Eric clearly knows the waters around Panama City & the Beach. He worked hard to ensure we had an excellent time. There are no guarantees on catching fish, but we caught plenty. He is ethical, happy, and simply fun to be around. We had a fantastic day on the water!

    Response from Captain

    Fishing with 3rd Gen Fisherman Eric Gueirra

    4Hr - inshore - 12:00 PM • 3 adults

    My sons and I had a great time fishing with Eric Gueirra at Pier 98. When you choose someone with 3 generations of fishing knowledge, knows exactly where the fish are biting, and genuinely has a passion for catching big fish, and making you look good, you are guaranteed to catch fish and have an amazing time. Eric is personable and communicates every move. Will refer him to anyone!

    Response from Captain

What's biting with Gulf Coast Fishing Charters in Panama City Beach

It's hard to resist the last bite of Red Snapper on weekends, but there's much more to fishing. Make the most of the last of the offshore season to land Mahi and Grouper, while Flounder is the flavor of the month inshore.  

Top catches for October

Spanish fiasco!!

Apr 10, 2026 • Panama City Beach
Soanish mackerel are bitting very good right now in the mornings, in about 10-20ft of water look for diving birds feeding on fry and watch for tail flickers out of the water, we have been trolling clarck spoons behind the boat at 7knots with a 4ounce trolling weight and a 3ft leader, once you in a school of them hang on because it gets crazy as all the poles are bound to bend, good luck and tight lines

Naurical adventure fishing report

Nov 9, 2023 • Panama City Beach
The most consistent bite has been whiting and redfish. Many of the reds are slot fish. The pompano bite has been slow at times. To our West seems to be best. Short rods right off the beach have caught some nice fish. Blanched sand fleas and OP Bait soaked shrimp have been hot. Fishgum and Fishbites have produced as well. Later this week we have a front coming through. Fishing just before it should see an improvement!

The red fish bite is HOT!!!!!

Oct 26, 2023 • Panama City Beach
It was better here in Bay County earlier in the week. The storm slowed it down and it should improve based on reports to our West. Migrating pompano seem to be small schools and some singles. There are some really good sized ones and some shorts. Redfish are around as well, both slot and overslot. Really scout the structure, (cuts, pockets, etc), to have your best chance. Some whiting are showing as well. Add an unusual number of permit were caught as well!
