If you're looking for an incredible day on the water, Panama Jeff's Inshore Charters is your go-to choice for an unforgettable inshore fishing adventure in Panama City, Florida! Captain Jeff Howard knows the best fishing spots like the back of his hand. Whether you're a seasoned angler or brand new to fishing, he's ready to guide you to an exciting day on the water.


Depending on the time of year, you’ll have the chance to reel in Redfish, Speckled Trout, Black Drum, Flounder, Spanish Mackerel, Sheepshead, King Mackerel, Mangrove Snapper, and more! Whether you're after a hard-fighting Jack Crevalle or want to target the elusive Lake Trout, Capt. Jeff will make sure you're in the right spot at the right time. Expect a light tackle fishing experience, as you drift through the inshore waters, targeting fish that lurk in the bays and backwaters. Fly fishing is also an option, though you may need to bring your own fly gear. Whatever your style, Capt. Jeff is ready to accommodate your fishing preferences and help you land some serious catches.


If you're bringing the family along, kids are always welcome aboard! Capt. Jeff ensures a safe and enjoyable experience for anglers of all ages. If you don’t have a child-sized life vest, just ask, and he’ll have one ready for you. And don’t forget to bring some snacks to keep everyone energized throughout the trip!


Your fishing adventure will take place aboard a 20' Bay boat, designed for smooth inshore fishing and perfect for groups of up to three passengers. It’s fully equipped with all the essentials to ensure a fantastic day of fishing. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, along with a selection of lures. Live bait is included, but be sure to ask whether you'll be catching it yourself.


Your fishing license is covered, so there’s no need to worry about permits—just show up and get ready for an amazing day on the water! Keep in mind that some fish have special regulations regarding size and season, so if you're planning to keep your catch, Capt. Jeff will provide all the details.


To make the most of your trip, be sure to pack sunblock (non-spray), bottled water, sunglasses, weather-appropriate clothing, and a camera to capture your catches. There will be some drinks available on board, but feel free to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but please avoid hard liquor and glass bottles.


Don’t wait—book your trip today and get ready for a fishing adventure you won’t forget!

We had an amazing time out on the water, targeting a variety of fish. Captain John made sure the trip was both enjoyable and safe, handling all the details smoothly. It was my first time experiencing the excitement of reeling in and releasing a big catch—definitely a trip to remember. Thanks, Captain!

Captain Derek and Sierra were incredible—truly focused on making our trip unforgettable. We landed over 40 fish, and they put in the effort every step of the way to ensure we had a fantastic time. Huge thanks to both of them!
