Trophy Fish Caught

At Unorthodox Charters, we live for the thrill of landing a trophy fish! The Gulf of Mexico off Panama City is home to massive catches, and we consistently target species known for their size and fighting power. Depending on the season, we've had recent success with powerful Bull Redfish in the inlets, huge Gag Grouper and Amberjack on the deep reefs, and fast-running King Mackerel nearshore. While the prized Red Snapper season is short, our reports track that highly anticipated action closely. Come see the photos of our most impressive catches and prepare to reel in your own personal best!

Inshore & offshore fishing Panama City continues to fuel these impressive trophy moments.

Family-Friendly Fishing Adventures

We specialize in creating easy-going, family-friendly fishing trips that are perfect for kids and beginners. Our captain is a pro at teaching the basics, ensuring a safe and fun experience for everyone. We often focus on inshore and nearshore action, targeting easily accessible fish like Speckled Trout, smaller tropical fish (like colorful triggerfish and various snappers), and abundant Spanish Mackerel, which are fast fighters and great for boosting confidence. With all gear provided and a patient, experienced guide, an Unorthodox Charter is the perfect environment for making lasting family memories on the water.

Fishing Year-Round in Panama City FL

One of the greatest advantages of fishing in the Florida Panhandle is the fishing year-round productivity. While species shift with the seasons, the action never stops. Spring and fall are prime for migratory species like Cobia and large Redfish on the flats, while summer is dominated by the offshore bite for Mahi-Mahi and Snapper. Even in the cooler winter months, we successfully target steady bottom fish like Sheepshead and various Grouper species in deeper waters. We adjust our focus monthly, ensuring our services are reliable, and our customers always have the best chance to hook into the current top species.
