Private Gulf Fishing

A Better Fishing Trip For Families, Visitors & Small Groups

Rising Tide Fishing Charters offers private Panama City fishing trips for guests who want more than a basic boat ride. These trips are designed for small groups who want to fish productive Gulf structure with a local captain.

Your group can choose from 6-hour, 8-hour, and 10-hour options depending on how much time you want on the water. Shorter trips are great for families and vacation groups. Longer trips give Capt. Mark more room to run, adjust, and fish different areas.

Trips focus on reef, wreck, and bottom fishing for seasonal Gulf species including red snapper, grouper, vermillion snapper, triggerfish, amberjack, mangrove snapper, and more.

Fishing Around Panama City

Reef, Wreck & Bottom Fishing In The Gulf

Panama City gives anglers access to productive Gulf waters, artificial reefs, natural bottom, wrecks, and seasonal structure fishing. These areas can hold a variety of reef fish and hard-fighting Gulf species.

Capt. Mark chooses the day’s plan based on conditions. That may mean fishing efficient spots closer to home, or using a longer trip to reach different structure and improve the odds of finding an active bite.

Every trip is weather-dependent, and safety comes first.
