Captain Jacob and his deck mate Liz are amazing. Jacob after a very thorough safety talk and a hands on way to safely move around the boat gave us a perfect tour. Jacob was knowledgeable of the area. Gave us a view of Dolphins and set us up for a perfect sunset. Liz was very professional when it came to hoisting the sails and assisting Jacob with the safety talk. Liz excelled with taking care of every need of us the guests. They supplied beverages of many varieties and Liz prepared and presented the food that we brought for our cruise. We had a friend with us that was afraid of water, not able to swim, and Liz checked in her regularly to make sure she was comfortable. Both Jacob and Liz made sure safety was the number one priority without taking away from the fun asking experience. We were under the sails for quite a while The entire experience was fantastic. Thank You Jacob and Liz.

The Sea Dragon absolutely leans into the kid experience and the crew does ALL the heavy lifting.

Also, wear grippy shoes because that deck gets slick fast...kids were slipping everywhere lol. This isn't a quiet, scenic sunset cruise--if that's what you're after, this ain't it.

The guys at Blue Water are super professional and really want you to catch sportfish. Every one on the boat has a captains license and the seas were really rough when we went and we felt comfortable the entire time. The boat was beautiful with leather interior in the sitting area an hdtv, two cabins and two bathrooms. I think it slept 6-8. It is really nice. We liked the guys so much we went redfishing in the flats yesterday on their bay boat. Overall it was a great experience!

My dad booked us a Deep Sea Fishing trip with Capt. Andersons in Panama City. We hadn't been in…read moreclose to 30 years so I was excited. We opted for the 10 Hour Trip (2 hours out, ~6 hours of fishing, 2 hours back). Quick edit: we only had ~26 people fishing and I'm thankful for that! It was coooooold the morning of and it had stormed the previous two days. Thankfully we were prepared. I'd recommend bringing a book bag or light sack with: sunscreen, hat, glasses, long sleeve shirt/hoodie, Gatorade, rain jacket and change of shirt. They do provide sunscreen, medicine, food, snacks and drinks onboard for a cost (see my menu photos). It was ROUGH going out, thanks to the storms leaving. We hit 5-6 foot waves and it was bumpy on some parts. I almost lost my stomach and went to the back of the boat for fresh hair for the last 45 minutes going out. There were a few people who got really sick. Make sure you clean your system out before getting on the boat (ie: get your out) because the two bathrooms are tiny. We were assigned fishing spots (dad got us back of the boat) and had buckets of squid ready to go. Capt would hit his horn, letting you know it was time to drop the line in. You'd pretty much either get something right away or nothing. It didn't take long to get the hang of it: drop to the bottom, reel twice up, keep the line tight, jerk the rod when you feel a nibble, reel up and check rod pressure to ensure you got something. It's a very quick process! One thing you'll notice is the different arm muscles you'll use. I caught the only Grouper for this trip and it certainly tired my wrist out. I literally got a Charlie horse in my wrist and toe after hauling that sucker onboard. It wasn't Red Snapper season (June 1st) but my dad caught 3 huge Red Snappers. We got to keep 10 B-Liners each, and also caught some white snapper. Overall, we hit our limit and caught extra for others on the boat. The helpers did an awesome job! The ride coming back in was pleasant and we sat on top of the boat. It was a fun experience! Make sure to tip the Captain and your helper! Great crew and they got the job done! There is also a fish cleaning place at the dock that'll fillet the fish for you at $.80/lb.
