Captain Keith was a tremendous guide and the Captain’s Choice option is the way to go.  My only ask for the day was to have action and he immediately put us on the fish with our first bites coming only seconds after dropping our lines in the water.  We limited out on red snapper quickly and quickly transitioned to trolling where the action continued with several king mackerel strikes.  If it wasn’t for an opportunistic dolphin, we would have had more in the boat!

Captain Keith was extremely professional and attentive to our needs.  He was willing to answer all of our questions and was a pleasure throughout the trip.  I will definitely be booking with Old Town Charters the next time I am in the area and look forward to another great outing!

I booked this trip as a gift from my daughter and me for my husband’s birthday and father’s day. Upon seeing their excitement I decided I would bow out in this one and let them have a day together. I haven’t seen them yet but if I remember correctly their catch included 2 Mahi, 2 Spanish Mackerel and a good size King Mackerel. They both said they absolutely had a blast! There are TONS of charters companies in PC but after reading all their reviews I knew Captain Keith was the one. Of course I looked at all the pictures of what folks had caught but as crazy as it sounds what sold me were all the parents raving about how great Keith was with their children. That tells me that he will do everything he can to make the fishing trip a success and he did not disappoint! Did I mention my “baby” is 21yrs old? Ha! Thank you Keith for ensuring that fishing with you was a heck of a lot better gift than socks and a new tie! Will definitely book with you again!

CPT Keith is fun, knowledgeable, and very family friendly. He does everything he can to make sure you and your entire crew hook and catch a lot of fish.
We booked and attended a 5-hour charter on 30 May 2020. CPT Keith took us to a shipwreck approx. 14 miles from the marina (approx. 8-9 miles off the PCB shore).
We caught and/or hooked the following:
22 various “edible” snapper (vermillion or beeliners, lane snapper, & porgy)
1 large amberjack which a shark bit and took a large chunk out of when being reeled in
2 cobia……an aggressive hard fighting fish
My son hooked onto a huge king mackerel (possibly 4+ foot) brought it up to the side of the boat and just as the CPT was attempting to gaff the fish, it got away.
AND we hooked onto a 6-8 foot 250+ lbs sand bar shark which we fought for what seemed like an eternity (probably was only 15-20 minutes). Snapped a Shimano rod and eventually the 60lbs leader snapped.
…….We also caught a few other undesirable fish (remora, oyster fish, etc) that were not worth keeping.
When the tripped had concluded and we headed back to the marina, CPT Keith navigated the boat to an area where he thought there might be dolphins. We were lucky enough to be able to have a dolphin swim up beside the boat.
Once we returned with our catch, we had them cleaned/filleted at the mariner as per CPT Keith’s recommendation while we were able to sit in the shade and have a beer. And then we set aside and had a portion of all the fillets “hook & cooked” at a local Panama City restaurant (“Triple JJJs”). Had to be the best tasting seafood we have ever eaten!
I will definitely book another trip with CPT Keith and Old Town Charters!

Captain Burch knows these waters.  He quickly put us on fish.  Fishing was fast and furious!  I will book again!

We had a great day fishing wrecks today. Caught a number of big snapper and had alot of fun. Ennoble day would recommend.
