Weather Statement & Info from the Captai

May 21, 2025

As I typing this, I'm sitting at home after having to cancel a charter due to high winds, causing unsafe conditions. So i feel it necessary to address this... Sometimes the weather just doesn't work out and we are forced to either cancel, or move your charter to the next available spot, if there is one. Please, PLEASE defer to your captains judgment when it comes to this decision. Safety on the water is the most important thing. There is no fish worth risking anyones safety for, and if your captain is saying it's unsafe to go fishing, he means it. We do not want to or like to have to cancel a charter. This is our living, our paycheck. But money does not or ever will come before safety. On top of that, its about your experience on the water. Poor conditions don't make for a good time and makes it more difficult for your captain to put you on the fish. So please, defer to our judment for your safety, and PLEASE do not get mad at your captain for making the decision to cancel. We work very hard to insure a good experience for you. Thank you for understanding! Tight lines!

Great day of fishing!

The speckled trout are still moving up shallow but the flounder are on the move too. We’ve also found some black sea bass and other species moving in. Fishing should continue to improve and take shape as we transition in summer mode! Call and book YOUR Family’s next adventure!

Trout are heating up in the flats

This time of year it is impossible to not catch fish. Great area for inshore and offshore fishing.

Yes. Perfect place to start as it is mostly inshore fishing because the water is calmer due to the location between Cape San Blas and the mainland. But you're still at least a mile or two off shore.

If you go fishing in St Port Joe, go with Kokomo Charters! Captain Charles put us on fish faster than any charter I have been on.

Definitely. Go earlier in the season if you want a lot of scallops. But if you just enjoy the hunt September is a good time to go

Capt Tim did everything he could control. The water was 89 degrees in the bay and the weather prevented us from going further out.

Start checking the weather as far ahead as you can. Even though our trip wasn't the most ideal weather, sometimes you have to take a chance, and this time it paid off (mostly due to Capt. Charles).

We had such a great time with Capt Jason. He was a patient and capable teacher to my young son who dominated the catch for the day. An amazing day… don’t miss this trip.

Chasin' Dreams Charters

This was our Christmas vacation. It was stormy the first part of the trip but weather turned perfect last several days. I was a little worried about the fishing but Keven knew his stuff and had our drag screaming before we knew it.
