  Awesome Fishing Trip!

  6 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing on July 1, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

  We had Captain Jimmy and 1st mate Nick. Nick did a great job with all the tacke and keeping bait on our hooks. Captain Jimmy kept finding fish for us to catch. We caught a bunch of fish but only about 10 keepers. while out on the water we were thinking maybe it just wasn’t our day. However, when we returned to dock we noticed others had hardly caught anything at all. So, even on a day that the finish “weren’t biting” Jimmy still found us fish to catch! We had a great time and we will definitely book with Emerald Coast Charters again.

  April fishing trip

  4 Hour Trip – Spring Special on April 22, 2026 • 4 adults

  Captain Jimmy kept us on the fish. I caught fish until my arms gave out. Nick was an awesome 1st mate. For a young guy he did an excellent job. You do not see a lot of young men that puts as much into what they are doing as he did. I kept telling him, I can bait my own hook. Keep the others baited. He still tried helping. I watched him tying knots on the line, cleaning fish and he did awesome. Someone did a great job training him and you can tell he loves what he is doing.

  Catch of the Emerald Coast

  4 Hour Trip – Spring Special on April 9, 2026 • 5 adults • 2 children

  We lucked out with Captain Jim & first mate Nick! They had so much knowledge and made us all feel really comfortable. We had a cooler, windy day but still had a great haul. The trolling was a fun introductory to sea fishing with kids (12,12,15). Be sure to dress is layers if its earlier in the spring. May also consider Dramamine if heading out on the Gulf of America. It’s alot choppier than the Bay. Overall, just ask if you don’t know and they will kindly answer.

  Awesome Trip!

  6 Hour Trip – Family Fun on July 30, 2026 • 5 adults • 2 children

  This was our first private fishing chartered trip and Captain Brandy and First Mate Matt were great! Captain Brandy navigated around a thunderstorm that rolled in, we barely had a spinkle of rain on us. Matt kept all the bait and tackle in check the entire trip. They both were wonderful with our three boys. We ended up with 37 fish that we were able to keep, but we caught much more.

  Captain Brandy took us out fishing and we ended up catching 30+ fish to bring home. Brandy is super knowledgeable about the industry and answered questions throughout the trip. Connor did a fantastic job with keeping the lines ready to go and helping us reel in the fish. Would highly recommend Brandy if you're a family wanting to learn fishing or more experienced anglers. She knows her stuff.
