Great fishing, but not for red snapper or grouper. Great for kings and some other snapper though

We had great weather, Red Snapper was not in season, caught a few but had to throw them back. Caught plenty of grunts, squirrel fish, and vermillion snapper.

It was great. There were storms a few days before and it was a bit windy at the end but our captain was a pro in navigating the chop!

If you have a 7 y/o fishing for the first time, do an inshore fishing trip. The water isn’t rough, you’ll catch fish, and you’ll see plenty of wildlife and dolphins.

Wind/water conditions changed daily in the spring. Find an experienced/local Captain and he will definitely increase your success. Hurricane Fishing Charters is second to none, he’s the man!

Charter Boat Gotta Believe

The captain said it was a good time for shark fishing. We got on on shark but lost it. The next one was a very large Sandbar shark, which are protected so we couldn't keep it but we were thrilled for the chance to reel in such a large shark. The weather the day before was not ideal and didn't set us up for the best fishing but the captain kept us on fish as much as possible. Great experience overall!

B&B Charters - Panama City Beach

March was a comfortable time to go fishing, but you can't keep the red snapper or grouper until summer. We had to throw back at least a dozen or more red snapper. If you catch your limit of vermillion snapper within 4 hours, spend the last hour or two going after amberjack and grouper. These big fish are a fun fight.

Understand that depending on the size of the boat and what is in season, you might need to adjust your expectations but you'll have a good time regardless.

Make sure you book for the weekend. We would have had more fish, due to red snapper being limited to weekend restrictions, this time of year.

Captain Chandler was awesome. He had the boat ready to go as soon as we arrived and he was constantly putting us in position to catch fish. He was professional and easy to talk to and was very laid back. I would highly recommend Captain Chandler to anyone who wants to fish in the Panama City area!

Captain logan took us out and we had a great time caught tons of fish. Very knowledgeable about the waters fished many great spots, and he was very attentive to all of us unhooking fish, and keeping bait on the lines. Couldn’t have asked for a better fishing trip, highly recommend this charter.

We took our twin 8 year old boys for their first ever sea fishing experience. Captain Keith was excellent with instructing the boys on how to fish. We all had an awesome time, and the fish we caught aren’t the only ones hooked. We will be going out with Captain Keith again soon.

The captain and crew were very friendly and helpful, as well as responsive to requests and concerns. One of us hooked into what appeared to be a shark. The crew were very professional and responsive to get it up so we could see it as a shadow about 30 feet down. I doubt that we will forget the battle on the light tackle before he managed to break the line after almost an hour. It was one of our better trips!

By far my favorite boat to go fishing on. The Capt. Brandon and his deckhand are always so nice and helpful. We’ve been on several fishing trips and it’s always the highlight of our time in Panama City Beach.

Came down with a few of guys that had either never been on a boat or never fished salt water. Cap put us on some fish and deckhand worked like a mad man! Great day, great stories. For those of us that had fished, if we are ever back in the area, we’ll do it again. Highly recommend.

Have taken this trip twice already and had a blast both times! Captain Deon does a wonderful job of taking care of everyone's equipment and ensuring it is a fun trip! You will be amazed at all of the underwater sea life you will see and interact with up close once the lights come on. 10 out of 10!!

We had a great day of fishing out with Capt. Meyers. Conditions were challenging with the wind, but Joe handled the boat and baits well, found us some good water and got us on some nice reds and specs. Knowledgeable, curious and personable make Joe a pleasure to fish with. We'll be back soon.

Captain Wade and deckhand Clint did their best to put us on the fish. A couple of spots were right on and we caught a ton. Captain Wade also got us on some Amberjack and some Tuna which was awesome to see and catch. And we were able to see some dolphins and turtles. Would 100% book with them again.

Captain Wade worked hard to get us on the fish and first mate, Clint kept our fishing rods loaded with bait. They delivered our catch to be filleted onsite when we returned to the marina. We picked them up right after lunch. We highly recommend you choose Twisted Reel!

We had an amazing time with Capt Keith, USN (ret). He was very knowledgeable and showed us a great time. He took us to multiple fishing spots and was an excellent teacher. We caught enough for a great dinner. We highly recommend Capt Keith. - M. Raethka, Maj, USAF (ret) and Deb
