Captain Black's Fishing

Member since April 2016 Panama City Beach, United States
Background
I began fishing at the age of 4. My parents were avid anglers and took me to the water every day during the summer months. My older sister also took me fishing, as I was a total addict. I have always had an appreciation for the experience of fishing and being there either alone or with people I wish to share my passion with. I have fished this area for 48 years and it has been a pure joy because you never know what is going to swim up to you. I would love to share my experience and help you make some memories with your family and friends. I always strive to treat each trip as though I were taking my friends and family fishing.

This is the time of year that the water warms up, and the bait starts congregating in shore. Following the Bait are predatory fish called pelagics. One of the first too show up is Spanish Mackeral. These tasty fish run in large schools and when located the fishing action can be excellent. Book your trip today.

As we move into the fall fishing season we find there is less fishing pressure than the summer months. This allows the captain a wide variety of areas to fish and explore. Fridays Saturdays and Sundays in September October and November are going to be open for Red Snapper aboard state licensed boats. This adds one more type of fish we are able to fish for aboard the Black Magic. We fish for several different varieties of snappers including Lane Snapper Black Snapper White Snapper and Vermillion Snapper or as we call them Beeliners. All are excellent eating fish and Captain Blacks favorite happens to be Vermillion Snapper. Our vessels have air conditioning and restrooms on board for your comfort and we would love to have you fish with us soon.
