  Great trip

  8 hour (AM) summer (6/1)-(9/30) on August 22, 2026 • 3 adults

  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Had an awesome trip with Captain Justin on the Reelistic! From start to finish, Justin did a great job putting us on the fish and making sure we had a great time on the water. He knows the area, works hard, and you can tell he genuinely wants his customers to have a successful trip. The boat and equipment were top-notch, and the whole experience was relaxed, professional, and a lot of fun. We caught some great fish and made some memories we won’t forget. If you’re looking for a fishing charter in the Panama City Beach area, I highly recommend Captain Justin and the Reelistic. We’ll definitely fish with him again! 🎣

  Amazing Day

  6 hour (AM) Summer (6/1)-(9/30) on July 12, 2026 • 6 adults • 1 child

  ad a fantastic experience with this charter! The captain and mate were both incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel welcome from the moment we stepped on the boat. The mate worked incredibly hard all day, keeping bait on the hooks, untangling lines, and making sure we always had a line in the water. You could tell he genuinely wanted us to have the best fishing experience possible. One of the highlights of the trip was when they let our 6-year-old “drive” the boat for a few minutes. It absolutely made his day and is something our family will never forget. The boat itself was outstanding. It was extremely clean, spacious, and very comfortable for our group of six. Since we had an early morning departure, we especially appreciated the air-conditioned cabin and the plenty of room to stretch out and relax when needed. Overall, this was a first-class experience from start to finish. Great crew, great boat, and great memories. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a deep-sea fishing charter!

  Awesome trip!

  4 Hour (pm) - 1:30 PM on June 30, 2026 • 10 adults • 3 children

  Went in July with 3 adults and 5 kids. Awesome experience all around. Justin and Brandon were super accommodating and nice. Boat was great - lots of space, very clean. Brandon did a great job of setting up lines and helping the kids. On the 4 hr afternoon trip, we asked for a lot of “action” for our kids and maybe try for a shark and they really delivered. Kids pulled up a fish almost every time they dropped the line (trigger fish, vermilion, red snapper, remora fish) and then we caught “Jaws” (300-400 lb, 8-9 foot bull shark). Wonderful experience for our family that we will talk about for decades.

  Great Trip with Great People!!

  6 Hour Trip (PM) on June 29, 2026 • 17 adults

  Thoroughly enjoyed our trip with Captain Justin. He was extremely personable with every interaction and communication. He put us in position to catch fish all day. My only issue was that we reserved for 17 people but only 12 could fish at a time. I would have preferred to know that ahead of time so we could limit our group size. So other than having to get creative with sharing fishing time, our trip was great. Will certainly book with him again.

  Wow! What a great fishing adventure!

  8 Hour Trip (Oct 1st - May 31st) on December 23, 2025 • 8 adults

  Blue Water Connections - Billistic II We recently went on an eight hour fishing charter with Blue Water Connections, and it was an absolute blast! Our group had a wide range of fishing experience, those who have done a lot of fishing and several who were novices. We were all blown away by the experience. First off, booking was a breeze through their website – quick confirmation and clear details on what to bring (sunscreen, snacks, and a sense of adventure). We met at the marina at dawn, the crew was there and super welcoming. The boat was a clean, spacious 57 footer with all the modern gear: high-quality rods, live bait wells, a cabin area for when the sun got intense, and it even had a clean modern head. We headed out for a 60 mile adventure (there and back). We were around 20 miles offshore targeting all game fish in season and the action started almost immediately. Captain Jimmy’s knowledge of the local waters is spot-on; he put us right on the fish using his sonar and years of experience. We hooked so many fish - almost 120#! Brandon was fantastic at helping with baiting and pulling in the fish, and even helping us get our keepers filleted at the local fish cleaner. They kept things safe and fun. The group was small (just eight of us), which meant no overcrowding and plenty of personal attention. Weather was perfect, but they assured us they monitor forecasts closely and reschedule if needed. Priced at around $160 per person, it felt like great value for the eight hours of non-stop excitement, including all tackle and licenses. If you're coming to Panama City Beach and looking for a charter fishing service we highly recommend Blue Water Connections. Whether you're a newbie or a seasoned angler, they'll make it memorable. Five stars – We’ll be back next season!
