Capt. James has been fishing his whole life, and some of his most cherished memories are from the trips he went on with his dad when he was younger. He's originally from the St. Louis area, but would frequently visit Pensacola so that he could experience the incredible angling on offer. In 2018, he decided to relocate here completely, purchased a brand-new boat, and started running his own charter company! Among other things, he got a boat so that he could spend quality time with his dad, as a throwback to their many fishing trips together. Capt. James is all about providing exceptional service on his trips, and is equally comfortable setting your hooks, or letting you do it yourself! He'll take extra steps to make sure that your whole group has a safe, comfortable, and fun adventure on his boat, no matter your age or skill level. He'll work hard to get you on the fish of their lifetime, and make sure that you leave with some truly incredible memories!

    Capt. James and Dave are great!

    1/2 Day Trip (AM) • 5 adults

    We had a great time with Capt. James and his first mate Dave, they were super friendly and genuinely seemed like they were having a good time too. We caught plenty of fish of various sizes. Could not recommend enough, we’ll definitely be repeat customers!

    Reported catch:
    Vermilion Snapper

    Nice Trip

    Inshore • 4 adults

    Captain James worked hard to put us on fish, but they just weren’t biting today. We caught Trigger fish and Red Snapper, but Trigger fish are out if season and the Snappers were not 16”. While we didnt get to put a limit in the cooler we all caught fish and had a great time.

    Reported catch:

    We had a great time. The water was a bit rough, but our Captain put on the fish. I would definitely recommend this trip.
